SQ's 380s are much older than LH's and have power in every seat - including coach!
So integrated over the entire frame, they provide multiple times more amperage to the seats than LH's birds.

When LH got its 380, the iPhone 4 was already scheduled ... but I seriously hope that they did not design the power limits for those.
