In fact, ohmic (i.e. reistance-based) heating is entirely independent of voltage; it depends only on amperage. Higher voltage is only dangerous inasmuch as it may increase the amperage.
- KirinDave 7y agoWhich is why I pointed out the resistance of the cable relative to the other components. It's not where you're going to get resistive heating unless it's a full short and that's the dominant resistor. You may know, but USB-PD has a pretty smart design here that makes it harder for such a condition to occur. I refers to the 5/20V fear only in terms of how safe I feel about handling such voltages.
