iPhone 16 Pro Max won’t power nano cortex?

I have a new Nano Cortex and this thing is AWESOME. However I can’t get it to turn on with a new iPhone 16 Pro Max. My iPhone DOES power other USBC devices no problem. Am I missing a step?

the iPhone USB-C only delivers up to 4.5 watts of current and that is not enough to power the Nano Cortex.

Aha!
So I should use a wall adapter to power the unit and then connect via USBC?

Yes, when using it with an iPhone, a laptop or desktop will have enough power for it through USB C
