In this video we test the power delivery USB-c charging on the m15 and m17 laptops with various adapters and power banks to see how it performs. Can you use one of these small adapters for light work or to charge your laptop when your bulky Alienware charger isn’t on hand?

Can you do this with both Dell 9310's???
This is very helpful.
Thanks again.
It was very very helpful and informative
sir, will it drainage the battery, when in performance power modle, using 130 dell adapter?
Hi what are your thermals like on this comp while gaming or rendering? Mine peg out to 100c for cpu relatively quickly when gaming…
how did you connect it to USB – C to charge? Can you use a port other then where you plug in the dell power cord that came with it?
Are you using a m17 or m15? Cuz the product page of the dell charger doesn’t say it supports m15r3 as well.
Sir I'm looking at this Powerbank for my M17R3. Can you tell me how it would fare? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0791WDZTW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_22H7Fb1597DV7?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Thank you.
Very Useful Video. Thanks
Sir can you tell me how much time it takes for a full charger via 60w power bank!!!.
Cool, cool, cool. And did I mention this is very cool. Thanks.
Did you manage to check how the battery drain is for light workloads and video streaming when using the tb3 port?
Can you please try out the 120 watt baseus charger:)
This laptop on battery will last you 2 to 2and a half hour with a power bank combined what time do u expect it to long educated guess is maybe for an hour last
does the m15r1 accept pd ?
i can't find specific info on the dell website
Will this work with the m17 r4 3080 even though it's power supply is a 3080?
i love you for this video
Nice, can you do this with the r4 newer model is assume?
Very nice Can I use with Alienware area 51m R2
Wtf? I just contacted Alienware they said the r3 do not support power supply whatsoever from the USB type c port.
This is super useful, thanks a lot for this video
Thanks so much for this video!
Wow! This is what I am looking for. My X17 is arriving, and I wish I can charge it with a smaller charger instead of 330w heavy block. Since the thunderbolt port on X17 also support power delivery, I guess the dell 130w charger will work fine, right?
EVERY SINGLE PERSON on the internet swears that there is not a SINGLE compatible usb-c charger for alienware laptops… clearly they're all wrong. all of my research has led me to no solution possible except for this video. ugh, god damn reddit.
Will any of these work on G15 Ryzen edition ? I am traveling soon and the power brick is as heavy as laptop lol. Will help alot if i could bring a light weight charger for light usage (no gaming …)
how can I get this product (Dell 130w XPS charger) via the internet?
Thanks!
Nice Comparison!
But 130W?
I thought charging via USB-C is limited to 100W?
Or has Dell created its own proprietary thing?
So I got m15 r3 last week. What should I charge it with on regular basis?( not techie guy & English is weak) so asking☺. Thanks
Hi,
First of all thank you for all your help regarding alienware m15 r4 underclocking and with the power adapter.
I should get my laptop soon so I am really excited about it. I was wondering if using the Dell 130w charger or one from aliexpress could harm my laptop in the mid / long run if I use it on the go?
Thank you !!
