[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1909143, member: 131855"] There are several counterfeit/low-quality chargers on the market and some do not generate the required wattage.

[URL="https://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-identify-fake-apple-charger/"]How to Identify a Dangerous Fake Apple Charger %[/URL] Others may disagree but I think you have two choices: 1. Buy an Apple charger from a trusted source. Preferably from Apple since there are many counterfeits out there. 2. Buy a trusted third-party charger from a company with a reputation for quality. I use ANKER chargers for my phones and they make some that produce enough juice to charge notebooks. [/QUOTE]
