In sleep mode, the 12W charger is able to charge the notebook in about 4-5hrs. In summary, a 5V/2.4A (12W) charger can keep a Macbook 12" operating continuously, charging it at the same time in slightly less than one day. Thus, a total charge would take approximately 4 hours (likely a bit more, due to the current drop-off when the battery is almost full). With the Macbook being folded shut (i.e., sleep mode) and at 70-80% battery capacity, the Macbook reports a charge of 0.36mAh per second. Meanwhile, the Macbook (Coconut Battery) reports a slight charge while in operation (playing a B&W movie) amounting to 0.077mAh per second, equivalent to a full charge in 19+ hours. Using an Orico charger with 2.4A (nominal) "Supercharger" port, and IOGEAR USB-A to USB-C charge cable (3.3ft), I record a power draw of 2.60A with a voltage of 4.72V (voltage drops from nominal 5.00 due to the strong draw).
