    No. I load my iPhone 14 and my wife's SE2020 with a 25W Third-Party High-Quality-Charger. The charging speed is controlled by the device.
    I would be much more careful with wireless chargers. They are so
    inefficient that they heat up the battery to extreme levels.

    Make that a 20 watt charger, not 29.

    No. I have always used iPad chargers for my iPhones. Since the iPhone 8 Plus.
    No problems.

    No. It might charge slightly faster, and that might result in a
    slightly higher heating of the battery - but likely not enough to matter
    in the long term.
