Introduction

To follow-up from my previous Surface power supply article, I wanted to point out how easy it is to find USB-C chargers and battery packs lately. A search on Amazon returns more than 10,000 results. But if you have a premium laptop like the Surface Book 2 or MacBook Pro, you don’t want just any USB charger – you probably want the most capable charger that can supply 20 volts at 4+ amps (80-watts+) that meets or exceeds the OEM charger so you can be assured of the same performance. Here is a handy list of the most powerful readily available USB-C chargers and battery packs for premium laptops. I compare the travel weights, charge rates, and features of each power supply and battery pack so you can make an informed choice.


AC/Mains Wall chargers (85-100 watt class)

In this list we’ve collected technical details about various high-power USB-C chargers including USB-IF certification, PD mode 2.0 vs 3.0, maximum charge rates, travel weight, and whether AC/Mains and USB-C cable ends are detachable or not to help our customers and the broader Surface Community make an informed decision.

Few broadly available chargers support the maximum 100 watts power delivery (20V @ 5A) although many support ~80-90W. Laptops capable of receiving 100W via USB-C rarely do so and typically step down to lower charge rates quickly as battery temperatures rise. Most laptops will get similar charge speeds across the 80-100 watt class. For long term durability and performance, the exact wattage rating is less important than the quality of the charger. USB-IF certification provides good assurance of compatibility, reliability, and safety so the article focuses on those. Popular non-certified devices are listed as well for comparison since some are also high quality.

This is not intended to be a comprehensive list, its meant to be an array of chargers with the best specs and unique features.

USB-IF Certified

100 Watt class

There are few consumer oriented 100 watt PD USB-IF certified power supplies. With more powerful laptops requiring >90W PD charging for best performance, expect to see more chargers available in 2021.

Not USB-IF certified

Many of these are high quality (check reviews) even if they are not USB-IF certified. Note that USB-IF does not yet have a testing protocol for chargers with more than 1 USB-C port. Properly designed multi-port chargers will intelligently split the power delivery when multiple devices are connected to not over-drive the charger. Poorly designed chargers can get extremely hot when multiple devices are connected.

100 watt class

There are quite a few brands with very similar GaN technology 100W class chargers. GaN technology does not imply high quality – it does imply that a charger will run cooler, weigh less, and be more compact compared to non-GaN. Do pay attention to the reviews on the cheaper models. Notable GaN and non-GaN chargers are below

There are dozens of other brands that appear to be clones of the same designs but are not certified. If you are skeptical of the price point and durability of a new brand, contact the company and ask for their USB-IF certification number. If they are not certified, it may be better to go with an alternate brand.


Portable Battery Packs (85+ watt output)

Most portable laptop and tablet battery packs deliver 18-30 watts which means your premium laptop will take a long time to charge and may not deliver enough power to keep your machine running at full performance. Battery packs that deliver 60-watts or more (20 volts at 3 amps) are preferred. When evaluating the overall capacity of the battery pack to understand how long it will keep your device running on the road, compare the watt-hour rating of the laptop vs the battery pack.

  • Surface Book 2/3 15″ devices have two batteries totaling ~90 watt-hours
  • Surface Book 2/3 13.5″ Core i7 devices have ~75 watt-hours total
  • Surface Book 2/3 13.5″ Core i5 devices have ~69 watt-hours total
  • Surface Pro 2017/Pro 6/Surface Laptop ~45 watt-hours
  • Surface Go/Go2 has ~26 watt-hours
  • MacBook Pro 15″ has ~83.6 watt-hours
  • MacBook Pro 13″ has ~54.5 – 58 watt-hours
  • MacBook 12″ has ~41.4 watt-hours

Note that the capacity is in watt-hours (Wh) which describes how much energy the battery pack can store. Some manufactures list mAh (milli-amp-hours which is not the correct measurement to use. In order to effectively use mAH, you also need to know the voltage that the battery pack cells are charged to. Some charge to 3.5V while others charge to 4.2V. A 4.2V battery pack has 20% more capacity than a 3.5V model. If the manufacturer doesn’t specify the voltage, it is safe to assume it is 3.7V.

Because battery charging is not 100% efficient, some energy will be lost as heat if you attempt to charge your laptop battery with an external battery pack, so charging one battery with another may result in lower than expected runtime.

The charge rate is described in watts or volts multiplied by amps. A higher peak charge rate can charge your laptop faster and ensure your laptop runs in the highest performance mode rather than a low-power-low-performance mode. Below are a few of the the more robust battery packs suitable for Surface Book 2 and similar premium USB-C chargeable laptops. (For the Surface Go, you need not search for a 60+ watt output unit – 29-45 watts is fine.)

Notes


100-watt 5-amp USB-C PD certified cables

By default, USB-C cables only support up to 3 amps for 60 watts maximum power delivery. Premium 100-watt certified cables have thicker wires and internal electronics that enable safe, reliable, and fast charging at up to 20v @ 5 amps. This is the one exception where you probably don’t want to mess around with off-brand cables. Get a name brand USB power delivery cable if you are working with >60 watts power delivery. Some of the cheaper USB-C charging cables do not offer full USB-C Gen 3.1 or Gen 3.2 data syncing capabilities and are intended for power/charging only. If you need high speed data syncing, make sure to check the specifications closely.

FAQ

Can I use a USB-C power supply or battery pack on older Surface devices without USB-C?

Yes. Please see the relevant Reddit discussion. There is a full featured Microsoft certified data+power adapter as well as 3rd-party solutions.

Microsoft official SurfaceConnect to USB adapter (discontinued)

  • Works with Surface Pro 2017, Surface Pro 6, Surface Laptop, and Surface Laptop 2 (does NOT work reliably on any other model)
  • Intended for Enterprise deployments where universal USB-C docking stations are used across multiple laptop brands
  • Passes power, data (USB 3.0), and video (DisplayPort 1.2 alt-mode) via 40-pin Surface connector
  • Requires a USB-C PD 2.x/3.x capable charger or hub that delivers at least 27w (12v @ 2.25 amps, 15v @ 1.8 amps, or 20v @ 1.35 amps)
  • Maximum Surface charge rate is 39W
  • Able to supply up to 5v @ 1.5 amps to downstream USB-C connected devices
  • Terminates in USB-C receptacle
  • SKU numbers depending on region, sales channel, and packaging:
    • HVU-0000x (where x=1-9)
    • HVV-0000x (where x=1 or 3)

3rd-party power + data (no monitor) adapters

3rd-party power-only USB-C adapters & cables

  • Work with Surface Pro 3 and later devices
  • Provides power via 12-pin Surface connector
  • no data connectivity
  • Max charge rate is 15V @ 2.58 amps (~39 watts)
  • Requires USB-C power supply with 15V @ 1.9 amps+. Some accept 12V @ 2.25 amps.
  • Does not implement Microsoft spec anti-arc scheme – sparking may result in accelerated wear of the Surface Connect port over time. Recommend against “hot-plugging” these adapters
  • May have major compliance issues such as those noted by Nathan K

Various re-brands of the aforementioned cables are available on AliExpress, eBay, and Amazon.

What about Surface Go or the 12″ MacBook? Do I really need all that power?

For smaller laptops like the Surface Go or the entry-level MacBook 12″ there is no advantage in getting a high-power output charger or battery pack – 45-watt class chargers will max out the charge rate just fine. Similarly 30-45 watt output battery packs which output 15 volts will work fine.

I recommend against using 5-18 watt phone chargers on laptops – while some will trickle-charge your laptop overnight or while the system is idle, they will often have no effect while the laptop is switched on and actively being used.

What about Surface Pro 7, Pro X and Laptop 3?

60-watt class power supplies and battery packs will max out the charge rate of these devices. 45watt class are the easiest to find at reasonable prices (see Surface Go section above). I recommend against using 5w-18w class power supplies on these devices – but most 18w-29w class power supplies will work OK.

  1. Hey man,

    Just wanted to say, well done on this list! I’ve been researching Type-C power banks and chargers, and like you would have noted, it’s hard to find quality stuff that is rated for 60W plus.

    The Wacom charger in particular is quite interesting.

  2. Love your list! I’ve been looking around for =>60W battery and power supplies… I too have the SB2 15″ and looking for alternative power supply.
    Can you update your article to include this 60W charger: http://www.myinnergie.com/sg/product/136?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI8obGj8qg3QIV2IWPCh0_vAZNEAEYASAAEgLeIvD_BwE I ordered it during Kickstart and is very happy with it, charging my own SB2 15″, Lenovo L380 (work laptop) and Samsung Note8 and Note 9. It is quite small and easily portable.

  3. Hi Dan, great info on your blog, thanks a lot! I bought the Apple 87W wall charger with the Apple usb-c charge cable to charge my Surface Book 2 15″. Charging works, however, when I connect the cable, I get an error. In the device manager it says: Unknown USB Device (Port Reset Failed). In the details the error code is Code 43. I haven’t succeeded yet in solving this problem. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!

I’ve started looking for a power supply with dual USB C output so I can charge my USB C phone at the same time as one of my Surface Pro 2017 (with one of the USB C to Surface Connect cables) and my work Dell Latitude 7480 (I don’t think I’ll find something to charge both together, as the latter needs 65W), and don’t need to carry multiple chargers.

    The HyperJuice seems like a good candidate, as it can split 87W total power between its two USB C ports and one USB A QC3.0 port:

    I’d be interested in your opinion on it before I make the plunge.

      • An update on the Hyperjuice; I don’t use it very frequently (it’s my backup from my Surface Pro when I’m away from my work and home docks), but it seems to do the job well. I’ve even had it charging my Surface Pro and my Dell Latitude at the same time (tbc at what rate, but they both charge).

  6. The Dell Ultrasharp 38″ Monitor (U3818DW) can supply up to 95W of power – great if you want to have a one cable plug and done docking solution at work.

    Dell are pretty hopeless with most of their monitors and specifying the power deliver specifications though – not all monitors with USB-C have power delivery (and not all monitors with power delivery can deliver 80W+). I had to find this information out from a third party website.

  8. Hi Dan! I bought a surface connect to USB-C cable to charge my surface 5 from an external battery and I checked out of curiosity whether this cable utilize the control pin. No surprise I measured 15V flowing through it. My question is, do you think soldering an original surface connect male end to this cable, that I cut off from a broken charger would solve this problem?
