Why not using 0.1w charger it will be even better for the battery.

What are you disputing? That heat can accelerate irreversible chemical reactions? Or what?

Actually, you can't go too slow either. Especially for the smaller galvanic cells (around 3 Ah), even 18 W is fairly ambitious. You're well over the recommended charging currents. This is especially worrying if you're charging every day. The more you abuse a cell, the more you're relying on a manufacturer doing the right thing and paying for a cell that can take it. This is not just about money, but also about weight, size and capacity. I suspect most phones didn't ship with a fast charger at least partly because the cells were actually not rated using a fast charger. It gives them more legal wiggle room. Which might be interesting if they glue the thing up and can't use a shorter warranty for consumables. Normally, a 6 month warranty on a cell itself would cover their asses pretty well against silly users who think they can have their cake and eat it, too.

If you look closely at the charger's characteristics, you'll notice that it's not possible to achieve 120W from a 110V outlet, it maxes out at 96W. 230V would allow to get much closer to the advertised power.

Still prefer to charge at 18W... for the battery lifetime's sake.
