USB-C Charging Power Levels
Wall Charger Power Ratings for USB-CDevices
18–27W Mobile phones, action cameras, and small drones
27–45W Medium-sized tablets and ultrabooks
45–100W Full-sized laptops and large screens
When charging larger devices like laptops or monitors, the wall charger should be paired with a USB-C cable rated at 5A to safely support up to 100W of charging. Using a standard 3A cable, however, cannot go beyond 60 watts of charging.
Chargers with lower wattage outputs can still charge higher-wattage devices, though the charging speed will be reduced.
USB Type C chargers have emerged as the norm for today’s electronic devices, offering a one-size-fits-all, streamlined, and convenient solution for energy delivery and connectivity. With a slim, dual-sided design, Type C USB solves the issue of one-way connectors and provides rapid charging and enhanced data performance compared to earlier USB types. Its widespread implementation across mobile devices, tablets, laptops, and accessories cuts down on the number of multiple chargers, making it more convenient for users to use and recharge various devices with a single cable. This growing standardization also contributes to sustainability efforts by minimizing electronic waste and streamlining tech connections.
