Why is it dangerous? If the battery can deliver 30W then it’s in spec.

Please explain why. Do you really think an extension cord works the same way as a USB cable?

Daisy chaining extension chords is dangerous because there is a current limit on them and no fuse. Also, the voltage drops the longer the cable is and thus there might not be enough left at the end to power whatever you’re trying to connect.

All of this doesn’t apply to electronically controlled and fused power supplies.
