I understand the 24W charger is meant to charge the Dell Venue 11 via a micro-usb cable.. but any idea if it could charge a Dell laptop with a USB-C cable? My laptop's original USB-C charger is much bigger (65W), but I wouldn't mind picking one of these up , as a extremely portable emergency back-up. Even if it would charge the laptop much more slowly.
Does it put enough power through to charge it? I know if you dont have the full 24w 1.2a @19.5vdc at the ready then it wont run on that.. like say you have a dead battery, if you dont have that power then it wont even turn on until the battery is charged up enough.. but if use the brick then you can actually run the tablet without a battery even in it..
Both of my pd charger and pd power bank can supply enough power to charge it. I never teeted if it would power up without a battery or not but it turns on and start charging even when battery is fully dead. So i guess then it can power on without a battery too. By the way this tiny adapter can work 20v and upto 5amp. Which is 100 watt in total. So this tiny dell laptop is a piece of cake for this adapter.
Usb A have 4 wires and trigger board have two connection marked as plus and minus. Connect red wire to plus and black wire to minus terminal. Leave rest of the wires.
@@MBA.Services That is what I thought. When I do this my Venue 11 Pro tells me "Unable to determine charger wattage. Charging may not occur" And under BIOS it shows 1 watt charging and its not enough. I think the two data wires have something connected to them in the main charger block.
@@solitarymassacre Those 2 data wires are need to signal original charger to switch to 19.5 volt but in this case when we are using usb trigger board. Laptop cannot signal usb trigger board and not needed. Since usb trigger board do not need any signal from laptop. Its always giving 20v. Its actually laptop that just dont know that its getting 20v without knowing it. So you are all set. You can connect a usb power meter in series to verify that you are getting 20v. A meter that works upto 20v. Normal usb power meter only works upto 5v.

Amazing! Do you know what's going on when this model 7140 can't charge from the brand charger?

This model has rampant powering up powering up issue. It has been a design flaw.

@@MBA.Services If you just use an ordinary USB 5V charger, will this tablet be able to charge up overnight?
How did you connect the female USB A part to the USB C PD Trigger board?

@@solitarymassacre Pretty sure you have to connect the two data wires together (short them) for the computer to know its a high power charger.
