Plugable - Power adapter

The USB C charger block that came with your laptop is fine, but it isn’t your only option. Maybe you’ve lost it, want a spare, or want a future-proof charger that’s smaller and doesn’t get as hot. Named by MacWorld as the ""Best budget one-port wall charger for 16in MacBook Pro"", the Plugable Type C charger has you covered. This 140W USB-C power adapter delivers up to 140W Power Delivery (PD). The USBC Charger negotiates with your device to deliver the optimal charging. What does “up to” really mean? In this case, it means the charger is sort of future-proof. If the device you’re charging now only supports 65W, then that’s what the charger delivers. But if your next device needs more power, it can have as much as it needs—up to 140W for fast charging. Set the fast charger block up as a charging station that adapts to your USB-C laptop, tablet, or phone. The Type C charging block is built on GaN technology, which has the benefit of being 14% smaller than the Apple equivalent—despite having identical Power Delivery specifications. It’s more efficient, so it stays cooler to the touch. The Type C charger also has a bevy of safety features like over-voltage protection, over-current protection, even short-circuit protection. Featuring the highest standards of USB Power Delivery 3.1 and support for EPR, this future-proof power adapter is compatible with laptops, tablets, and phones up to 140W. While only a few laptops on the market support EPR charging, like the newer generation 16” MacBook Pro, this power adapter has been designed to work with devices that have yet to be released. To achieve the maximum 140W charging rates on current 140W Macs, the power adapter needs to be paired with a MagSafe cable (not included). This is because most USB-C connectors are limited to 100W charging. Windows systems that charge at 140W via USB-C are expected in 2023 and beyond. Using safe power negotiations, the power adapter will optimize the charging speeds no matter the device.
