cablecc USB 3.1 Type C USB-C to DC 4.5x3.0mm Adapter PD Emulator Trigger 90 Degree Angled

Have two older HP laptops, which both use the same connector and both had the long cords with the requisite blocks, always getting really hot when charging. When the plugs started acting wonky, I looked for other solutions and found this adaptor. I sure am glad I did. With a mini block capable of at least 30 W, and a USB-C cable, I can now charge my laptops faster and more reliably. The adaptor fits perfectly in both HP laptops and just plain works. Now, instead of a cord and big, heavy block, I have a faster USB-C cable and a mini block from monoprice. More charging capability, and faster, with smaller cable and block. Win win.

This fits my need perfectly. Its a right angle plug used on some HP branded devices, including small formfactor PCs and laptops. It contains the IC the negotiates with your power adapter for voltage, amperage and power. Works perfectly up the the high wattage I tested, 45 watts.

It does work if you find the right charger. I’m sure this thing works exactly as it’s supposed to just not what I hoped. But it’s cheap so I recommend trying it

Although I did have to return this, this adapter worked pretty well with my HP laptop and Lenovo docking station. The fit and compatibility was just fine and it pulled from the power source like it was supposed to. I ended up having to return it because my laptop was old and I decided to just purchase a new one. The build quality is pretty good although I would have liked for the connection to be a little tighter or even a different shape. Although the l shape would be perfect for most setups, it wasn't for mine. I have a laptop with dual monitors on risers and for whatever reason at times it would disconnect but again that was due to my laptop being as old as it was. The value of this adapter All in all is worth it if you need one.

The laptop I used this adapter on is a Dell Inspiron 7375I wanted to charge my laptop via a 65W PD charger and a portable PD power bank because it is less weight to carry around compared to the original Dell charger. It's also a lot more convenient because most of my devices are using type C connections.At first there was some issues with my laptop not detecting a battery to charge. So initially, it was only keeping my laptop powered on but not charging. I had to go into the Dell laptop BIOS and change battery charging from "Adaptive" to "Standard." It is now detecting the battery and charging it without issues now.This is great and now I can use a Power Delivery (PD) power brick and a light weight PD charger around.

I have 4 USB-C PD sources - 3 chargers and a battery pack. I tried this adapter with all 4. It worked with two of them, and failed with two of them. For the 'failed' guys - the laptop briefly (1-2 secs) acknowledges a charger, then falls back to battery. The two working devices are my LG Gram 65W USB-C PD charger and my BaseUS 100W USB-C PD battery pack. The two failing devices are my Samsung 65W USB-C PD charger and my Anker 65W USB-C PD charger. All 4 devices purchased in the last 6 months. The 'failing devices' work with everything else.I'm happy that it works with at least some devices so I'll hang onto it (for the price) but I will try another brand to see if I get better results.

Paired this with an Anker Prim 200 watt power bank. This allows me to charge my Dell laptop that uses a 4.5mm x 2.1mm barrel connector.

My laptop takes a 20V input with a 2.25 A max or 45W max and this adapter worked to power the laptop via a powerful enough battery to extend the battery life by about 6 hours (laptop: ideapad 300-15isk, type 80Q7). Another adapter I tried seemed to have a problem communicating what voltage level to send to the slim tip output, but this one being hard-set at the required 20V seems to nullify the issue.
