*Will you be hacking your laptop soon? What laptop do you have?* A few words of caution my friend: CAUTION: 1. You must find the right barrel jack to USB-C converter for your laptop that has the same voltage marked. Do not buy any random one to avoid potentially damaging your laptop due to different laptop voltages. Most laptops support between 18V-20V. Look on the back of your laptop and confirm the voltage with the adapter you are purchasing. Your USB-C adapter internals may look different to mine so please bear that in mind. 2. You must use a USB-C Charger that is equal to or more than the wattage of your original charger (which is typically more than 65W). You cannot use a typical phone charger to charge your laptop because it does not have enough power. You must use a USB-C to C cable that supports charging, and not USB-A to C. 3. Be sure to properly protect any bare wires or pads with heatshrink, glue or tape. You do not want any electrical hazards here nor airport customs to annoy you for your dodgy laptop. Do it right the first time. Do not use hot glue, it will melt from the heat while charging. Enjoy!

@@goodjihad Yes - but if you do not know about the 1wire communication, you will not be looking for this. The vid does not mention this. So it is unwise to just start doing a hack on ones laptop. Other than that, we at work use 1wire and let me tell you, it is not usually that "obvious". Even if you put an IC into the USB-C converter, you must have proper data on the IC. So one might need a 1-Wire programmer and write proper codes on the IC. Depending on the IC there can be a fair few entries, checksums, etc - so a simple copy from the OG charger might also not be enough. I made a small program that calculated the CRC codes for data and it usually includes the ICs serial number. And this is proprietary as heck based on manufacturer. I have not directly checked what Lenovo and others do on their part and there is no "openly" available documentation (I tried to get one previously when I was working with 1wire and wanted to check what my charger does). If I were to guess there would be some data about the voltage and supported wattages (I have about 10+ lenovo bricks at home and almost all of them works with any of our lenovo laptops). So if you create a custom charger, you must tell the laptop what wattage it supports, calculate CRC and burn the data. I'd say there aren't "premade" softwares for this. And without digging into this the guide suggests that you can "just do it". I simply wanted to bring attention to this, as there are limitations.

Or 5,10,20Gbps max?). You also don’t necessarily know if a usb-c cable is capable of tunneling thunderbolt signals or if it can also carry DisplayPort data. You also don’t know if the cable is capable of supporting certain charging modes like Samsung’s PPS.

Most laptop charging circuits support a range of voltage. It might say to you 19.5v on the laptop, but its circuit could 'support' a range - ie 19.0v to 20.0v. So it should be ok. They wouldn't make these connectors otherwise. Best way to go about it is to test the removable jacks you can get on aliexpress. if it works with this then you know the mod is compatible! www.aliexpress.us/item/1005005101855652.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.3.71a9106b5pFe6B&algo_pvid=66436ee4-45c4-43b7-a54d-54c3b379dd77&algo_exp_id=66436ee4-45c4-43b7-a54d-54c3b379dd77-1&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21AUD%214.01%213.13%21%21%212.60%212.03%21%402103243417069421679175469e0376%2112000031667465683%21sea%21AU%212790129805%21&curPageLogUid=7y9D7HkIYVvt&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch%7Cquery_from%3A

In order to remake the laptop in this way, you don't need to break that adapter, it's easier to buy a PD Trigger board.

I already have both charging ports in my laptop but I like to use the usb-c port for my external disc drive because it's fast & convenient.

ah yes, just make the laptop a potential firehazard because the adapter is not good enough for you.

For some laptops you can also buy an adaptor that takes USBC and has the laptop specific barrell plug on the other end. Or even magsafe

I use short usb-c to angle barel jack cable for my HP Spectre 13 x360 first gen without any problem. If you don't want modify your laptop, this is the solution.
@pesoen7 ай бұрын
i will consider this, but might ADD the usb-c connector instead of replacing the barrel jack. should not be too hard. i could also just use the usb-c port already on my laptop(has usb-pd and dp) but it's in an annoying spot..

Thankfully my thinkpad x270 supports type c charging without modding. I keep the original brick at home and a type c charger in my backpack at school. It does not charge while on though, my charger is just 30 watts but in suspend mode it does.

I mean, for 65-ish watt laptop chargers, it's probably fine. But if it's anything bulkier it's just gonna make charging take a lot longer
