Dell G15 (5510)
On the Dell website it says has one option that says 240W (the one I was using is 180.0 W) is compatible with mine but for $140 I want to be 100%
Also my old one shocked the shit out of me because it was frayed and I had no idea so I want to be 1000% sure so I don’t get accidentally shocked again.
Junk the laptop and buy one that uses USBC.
That shit should have stayed in the 2010s.
i’m about over laptops in general.
At the time that laptop was released, USB-C couldn’t charge more than 100W. If that thing needs a 180W charger, USB-C simply wasn’t an option. The power delivery spec allows more these days, but that won’t help older models.
Dell did some non-standard trickery to allow more than 100W charging through a USB C connector. If it’s one of those laptops it will only charge over 100W with a Dell USB charger.
