But that's what all lightning cables are. Low power limit, low speed data only.

I can put 12w through a lighting cable. That’s fine for most if not all of their iPhones and iPads. Hell it’d be ok for my MacBook
You can put 12W through all USB-C cables as well (AFAIK). The crappy ones might be limited to something between 12-50W, while decent ones allow for 100W or more.

If you keep it turned off for entire day to charge then sure.
