The Ridge manufacturer product pages list a maximum output of 20W via USB-C Power Delivery, which supports the claim that the power bank provides 20 watts. The claim faithfully reflects the passage's '20 watts of power' and the product specs; both sources are manufacturer pages, so confidence is capped.

A guest makes this claim. Listeners heard it, so it counts against the post, and on the guest's own record.

This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.

What was said

… What it does have is the conductive charging. Show me how that works, Brandon. Would be glad to. You just charge this up, and it magnetizes to the back of your phone. With 20 watts of power, it charges your phone as fast as possible. 20 watts and 10,000 milliamps holy macaroni, milliamp hours is what I meant to say. Wow, that's three whole full phone charges right there in your pocket. Free shipping and a 99 day risk free trial, plus a lifetime war guarantee. …

What we found

Supports. The Ridge Power Bank product pages list 'Maximum Output: PD (Power Delivery) 20W' and '20W Power Delivery' as a feature.[1][2]

Context. The same pages list lower outputs for other ports (wireless up to 15W, Lightning 5V-2.4A), so 20W is the maximum via USB-C Power Delivery rather than every output.[1][2]

Context. The claimant's 'as fast as possible' phrasing is marketing hyperbole, and the sources do not independently test the device's output.[1][2]
