which car charger to use for iPhone 15 pro, 256mb?

Just purchased a new iPhone 15 pro, but do not know what car charger to purchase for it. I have an older car, so need to plug into lighter socket of car. Apple store shows 3 different ones with different wattage...how do I know which to use or what's best to use if I purchase at Best Buy? I don't want to mess anything up with this new phone!

iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 17

No real issue with different wattages.


The iPhone cannot be overcharged.


Just buy a good quality one. Belkin, Anker, UGreen, all good reliable brands. Wattage is not really a consideration. 18 or greater is fine. Fast Charging can be had with more than 20 watts. But will not be any faster with more watts beyond 25 or so.


You will want a USB-C charger, if only to avoid having to buy an extra adapter.
