Microsoft surfaces are lightweight and high performance, but lacking of Type-C port is really annoying. This cable allows you directly connect a Surface Pro or Surface Laptop to a USB-C PD wall charger or portable power bank for charging.
Compatibility list:
- Microsoft Surface Pro 6, Surface Pro 5th Gen, Surface Pro 4/3
- Surface Laptop 2, Surface Laptop 2017
- Surface Go
- Surface Book 2, Surface Book
(NOT compatible with other models)
Please check the detail information as below before purchasing:
1) IMPORTANT: If you have a USB Type-C device, that does not mean it's capable of PD. Check your USB-C power supply to ensure it supports Power Delivery (PD).
DO NOT use a USB charger / power bank and USB to USB Type-C adapter, they do not support PD.
2) Check your USB-C PD Power Supply to ensure that it lists 15V voltage output.
3) USB-C PD Adapter: 29W or greater for Surface Go; 36W or greater for Surface Pro and Surface Laptop (45W or 60W is recommended). You may experience insufficient power if your USB-C power source is not equal to or greater than your original charger.
4) Using a charger with output power lower than Surface needed, it gets hotter which is very normal.
5) Doesn't support data transfer or video output.
