Nothing happens by using a 5 or 12W charger for your iPhone. The only thing you will experience is that your iPhone will charge incredibly slowly, compared to your 20W charger. Even if you use an iPhone of more than 20W, nothing will happen either - your iPhone does not accept more power than it can handle.
