USB-C Power Cords Part II

I'm following up on a question that I asked a couple weeks ago about using USB-C as power cords. Since then, I bought this cord. It can power my phone just fine but can't power my Lenovo laptop. I'm thinking that something like this or this should be powerful enough handle anything I can throw at it. Both are 100 watt and support fast charging. Am I right or am I missing anything?

They may use different fast charging standards. The laptop may use for instance USB_hardware#USB_Power_Delivery.

Resolved

– The USB-C cord I linked to above powers both my laptop and phone. Thanks to everyone for their help. A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 14:42, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
