iPhone owners won’t be able to use faster 7.5W wireless charging until iOS 11.2 comes out.
So you should be ok if you have that.
I'll have to dig out the wattmeter and check it
Off you go then @aldaweb

No, it sits inline. I'm not sure a wireless one (ie a clamp meter) would be pheasible at those voltages/currents.

Without access to the actual input to the charging circuit within the phone the nearest approximation is from monitoring the current and voltage into the base coil from the charger. That is, the meter goes between the charger and the wireless base.
There are apps that claim to show the charge current but that is meaningless unless the voltage is constant.
