Recently I'm looking for all in 1 Gan Charger. I don't have to bring 2/3 adapters to travel around everyday. My concern is GAN Charger, would it damage laptop's battery health. |

most gan usb chargers do not have earthing. so, some laptops with metal casing can give you a buzz

So long as your laptop has a PD USB-C port and you get the right charger / cable, no problems at all

At the end of the day its just DC voltage going into your battery...My concern is GAN Charger, would it damage laptop's battery health. |

Based on the original charger, you need a Gan charger capable of minimum 65W on the USB-C1 port

QUOTE(TimothyTham @ Jul 28 2023, 09:36 PM) Looks like your laptop wants a 65W USB-PD Chargerthe charger you posted would work, BUT, 65W is only if you dont use the other ports, would recommend getting a 100W one so that you have 35W left over to charge your other devices such as your phone |
