These Nektek chargers were standard issue for my office over the past few years.
Now they're giving us these Baseus 65W or Iniu 100W chargers.
Not sure what the rated wattage has to do with anything. If line voltage arcs over to the low voltage side you're going to have a bad day, limited by the circuit breaker or the ability of the arcing components to withstand the arc. Plenty of people have died from badly made low-wattage chargers.
