I was looking for a second charger to leave at home and found this one on the dell website for about the same as some on amazon (of dubious quality).
Model: 450-ALKQ - shows up on Mwave as 65W, so not sure why it is listed as "60W" on the dell website, probably to tier better next to their 90W and 120W offerings.

Ordered 1 last night, will update when it arrives.

EDIT: Invoice issued after purchase from Dell lists the charger as 65W NOT 60W, I have updated the post to reflect this. Thanks to snuffypot11 for drawing my attention to this :)

First post, no clue what else to add

Cheers

    From the last time this was posted, keep in mind the charging modes on this charger don't have mobiles in mind. So you may not get full fast charging. Perfect for a laptop though.

      Need to check the outputs on this one; my previous dell charger could only run at either 5V or 20V, meaning if your device doesn't support PD 20v then you would be slow charging at 5V 1A

      • willyroo on 15/09/2022 - 16:07

        Keep in mind the Youtube video is a tear-down of their newer GAN charger with a detachable USB-C Cable. I doubt the charger I posted is GAN, and yeah most likely no PPS - but I only plan on using it with my laptop anyway

          For anyone else thinking of doing the same, keep in mind that means when you travel you'll have to bring a second charger. If you bought a charger that can work with phones as well, that's one less thing to bring.

          I personally much prefer a GAN charger as they're more compact and plug straight into the wall which means I don't have to pack a thick chunky mains cable.

        The nice things about these Dell chargers are they're earthed (third pin on the power cable), so no buzzing or strange side effects with things like the touchpad.

      It states that "Comes bundled with 1meter power cord"
      This power cord would be a 240V 3 leaf clover connector that connects to the end of the powerpack.

        I haven't run into that, very strange. What do you mean exactly? Does the keyboard get re-mapped, or is sometimes unresponsive, or something else?

          +4

          If it didn't happen, I almost wouldn't believe it because I don't understand how the two are related, but the keyboard becomes insanely laggy.

          Any keypresses are registered late, like 1-3 seconds late, and it does not register all keystrokes. Unplug the charger and it goes back to normal, literally instantly. It is so bizarre!

      • kizzaaa on 15/09/2022 - 10:44
        +3

        Yes, I'd believe this. USB-C PD chargers have started to introduce proprietary protocols and other authentication mechanisms to prevent "unauthorised chargers". Lenovo has been known to use proprietary protocols in their USB-C PD chargers.

        Samsung put out this media release a few years ago that has a diagram showing at high-level how the technology generally works:

    • dilligaf8 on 15/09/2022 - 10:03

      It will charge it, but you could run into a weird thing when restarting (unsure) - I had problems with my X1C G6 - when restarting on a 45W charger it would stay on a screen complaining about the power supply being underrated until you hit enter - not sure if that'll be an issue with a nominally 60W charger…

    Would this run an inspiron 5505? Want to maximise room in my notebook bag for work travel. Or is there anything like a wall plugin USB charger that would be powerful enough to run it without having to carry the brick and cord around. Like a phone charger but capable of charging the notebook.

    • dilligaf8 on 15/09/2022 - 10:43

      it should be supported, but from a quick scan of the technical documentation I didn't see it explicitly mention the ability to charge via-USB-C. Happy to be wrong though.

    • jjj123 on 15/09/2022 - 16:48

    Would this work with a Dell XPS 15 9560? Seems to be quite low wattage for that?

    • dilligaf8 on 15/09/2022 - 10:41

      It's compatible, just not optimal - if your XPS consumes over 65W when running hard it will draw power from the battery as well. When at idle or off the battery will charge no worries, albeit more slowly than a higher wattage charger. This is probably not the charger for you unless you don't mind slow charging.

      • nomadspartan on 15/09/2022 - 13:54

        You can just use the charger that comes with your personal laptop. Less e-waste.

        • bigbadboogieman on 15/09/2022 - 13:55

          Why not use my personal computer itself? Even cheaper for the company yeah?

          • nomadspartan on 15/09/2022 - 15:01

            @bigbadboogieman: You missed the point. That's the whole point of having a Universal standard of the USB C plug. No more proprietary barrel style chargers that we used to deal with back in the day. Now it's just USB C. Sometimes i just charge my macbook pro with my Samsung 25watt charger (while it's sleeping), or use my macbook pro charger to charge my phone.

            Yes you may argue that it's cheaper for the company but it's also better for the environment. Sort of like phone manufacturers not including charging bricks anymore when buying a new phone.

            • bigbadboogieman on 15/09/2022 - 15:57

              @nomadspartan: Yeah you missed the point too. Until the "universal" standard is applied, we are all stuck with different non sense charging ports. But my point was regarding cheapskate corporate culture and not charging ports.

                @bigbadboogieman: Yeah, I guess if you're using an old laptop that doesn't charge via USB C, then you will be inconvenienced with only a single charger. But I I reckon the vast majority of people won't be in your position.

    • dilligaf8 on 15/09/2022 - 11:13

      It will be fine, 60W is the maximum the power supply is rated to provide, but it can provide less power with no issues.

      As an example when my laptop is plugged in and running with the battery fully charged it only uses around 10W - The charging/power circuitry in the laptop regulates how much power it pulls from the power supply, the rating of the power supply just stipulates the Maximum amount of power it is rated to supply so the laptop won't try to pull more than that.

        It deeply concerns me that our education system doesn't instill either this knowledge directly, or an absolutely basic level of critical thinking skills that would lead you to the same conclusion.

        • Nom on 15/09/2022 - 12:51
          +2

          If your device needs a 20v 50w supply, only the wattage is a maximum number.
          You can use a 100w supply, and your device will only draw 50w.

          Critical thinking skills don't help you know that
          this only applies to the wattage - the voltage requirement is an absolute number.
          You cannot use a 240v supply and assume your device will only draw 20v…

          (note that USB C negotiates the power requirement though, so you can in fact connect a 20v USB C supply to a 12v device without breaking it - it just won't charge if it cannot negotiate the voltage it needs)

          • dilligaf8 on 15/09/2022 - 13:07

            @Nom: Agreed, it's not for want of critical thinking, it's just niche knowledge - I only know a bit about this kind of thing from dabbling around with electronics and computers a fair bit.

    Used a few 60/65W chargers on my lenovo too and it gives that warning the 60/65W charger isn't enough.

    Lenovo proper charger is 65W so not sure if it is a chip thing or the samsung 65W charger isn't really 65W, even though it says that port is 65W specifically.

    • [Deactivated] on 15/09/2022 - 12:09

      A lot of consumer electronics are based on a base/OEM proven/engineered design, that sometimes people go to a bare minimum of effort on top of to add a feature/different port/ slightly better spec component. A lot.

      Getting regulatory approval for a rebadged OEM design is simple. Drop-shipper-esque "brands" don't want to take the risk on ordering 5000x units of "x' that might not pass, and/or pay for the certification themselves.

      Don't get why these all cap out at 60/65W.

      It's because 60W is highest allowed under the USB PD charging specs for use with non-certified cables (i.e. without a e-marker chip).

      Need one for the 2017 macbook pro and it needs 75W.

      Well, how else will Apple get you to buy their 85W charger? ;)

      Used a few 60/65W chargers on my lenovo too and it gives that warning the 60/65W charger isn't enough.

      Are you using a good cable? Cables that are too long or with wires that are too thin will have too much voltage drop.

    Be aware if you would like to fast charge your existing PD devices as some of those PC UBS-C adaptors dont have the full support to every voltage. Some of them only have 20V and 5V lacking of 12V and 9V if that's important to you.
