    I have a question about weather or not a laptop computer came with a USB type C charg

    I would like to know if anyone knows if a laptop computer used a USB type C power adapter as its power supply if so what was the brand name and what model number was it I am looking for one that actually still works correctly

    Thank for anyone who knows that can give this information

    The reason I am asking there are EBay sellers that have a battery powered bank that says that it can power up a laptop computer I even have several switching power supplies adapter that have a USB type C male plug on them and I want to make a battery powered pack for remote computer usage or at least this is plan

    welcome to the world off bulshit that is the USB non-standards

    usb-c is a connector format.

    you need to know about the signaling.
    quickcharge (QC) verses Power Delivery (PD)
    these are the protocols used to raise the voltage and they ARENT compatable with each other.
    BUT WAIT. the fun isnt over.
    there are versions - 2.0 3.0 etc and then you need to know how high the laptop wants to raise the voltage and if the psu supports going that high!

    i stay away from this shit - fuck it all - it's a shitshow.
    it's the road that leads to boxes of psu's and cables just to do a simple task.

      This is the reason I asked the question

        If you're asking about power supplies I've used several HP chargers P/N 671R3AA with just about anything from phones (both qualcomm quick charge and not, including Xiaomis with their weird half proprietary quick charge) to power delivery capable laptops with no issues.

        They're probably one of the few good products that HP currently makes

          Yes I have the HP table USB-C switching power supply’s but my question was was there a laptop computer that used this type of connector to power it and if so what is the model number of this type of computer

              I use Anker and and Ugreen PSU’s (45w and 60w bricks). Works like a charm. The laptops ASUS and Lenovo will charge on a 45w power supply (normal 60w), but it will let you know that there is a slow charger on the port. Also it does not matter on which usb-c port the PSU gets plugged in. Been doing this for 4 years no problem and 2 years on the laptops no problems. Besides the cables last about 2 years, since they get used a lot. I got them from Amazon.

                How do research for this type of cable Amazon I have not seen what type of cable this is

                Thank you for your information

                  usb c cables are labelled by their maximum wattage usually

                    Just go to Amazon and look for “Anker” or “Ugreen”

                      I literally use an apple USB-C charger to charge my LG Gram (45W)

                        To add to the list, I use an HP EliteBook 840 G6 and can confirm that this supports USB-C charging too

                            In my experience, anything past 8th gen is much more compatible with USB C charging, before that is quite hit and miss as to what laptops will take it and how much power they will take.
                            Lots of 8th gen and onwards HPs and Dells will accept power via USB C.
                            Most of the machines i've come across will negotiate for 19-20V at 3-5 amps when on and charging. (Obviously the charger must support these configurations)
                            There are power limits also to worry about, a machine that requires a 130W charger for example might not be able to take that much power from a USB C port and will charge, but slowly (even when using a 130W USB C charger).
                            Random note - i have noticed a lot of coil whine in some machines when using usb charging.

                              by RdeveLabs
                              To all the members here...

                              Let me tell you a little bit about what happened to my laptop (MSI GF63 THIN 11UCX model: MS-16R6) that “maybe” you know how to solve this problem.

                              So before this problem happened, my laptop was running smoothly. When I wanted to restart my laptop, it looked fine at first. But after I waited for this restart process to take a long time, until finally I panicked (because the restart process did not finish plus the laptop screen only showed a black screen), I immediately pressed and held the power button to force the laptop to turn off. But...

                              P15 Gen 1 (type 20ST, 20SU) Laptop (ThinkPad) - Type 20ST needs the main BIOS and video. The client says that after the Windows updates there was a firmware update and after that the device makes the sound of music when there is no screen. Moreover, if you turn it on several times then the picture sometimes appears and it works and passes all tests (wonder)

                              Hello Everyone!

                              I have an Acer Aspire A315-42 laptop. I generally leave it on for long time by closing down its lid (so it enters the sleep mode). Recently, it rained quite heavily in out area. And the humidity and moisture seem to be high. So one late evening, after I opened the lid and turned on the laptop, it did power on as the blue light turned on but after it booted to the desktop screen, just 5-10 seconds after both the screen and blue light went out and laptop shut down (the blue power light turned orange). And after 2-4 seconds that orange light went off and the laptop died.

                              Questions About USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 and USB4 Designs: Type-A vs Type-C, MUX Requirem

                              Hi everyone,

                              I’m currently learning about the USB protocol and designing a project, but I’ve encountered a few questions that I couldn’t find clear answers to. I’d really appreciate your input!

                              1. USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 with SuperSpeed Type-A Connector
                              According to the USB 3.2 specification, it states that USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 can support a SuperSpeed Type-A connector. This raises a question:

                              If we use a SuperSpeed Type-A connector, the system would only utilize 1 lane for data transfer, leaving 1 lane from the host unused. Is this configuration valid,...
