In the event you join one machine to port PD1 or PD2, you may get 140W. In the event you hook up with all ports, the distribution is 65/45/20/20/20/20/20W. In the event you use all of the ports, join the product that makes use of probably the most energy to PD1.
I plugged in all the pieces I might discover and boy does it ship on the promise. Better of all, the charger barely obtained scorching, due to the GaN know-how that permits it to ship extra energy whereas being smaller. Principally, a GaN charger is 3 times extra environment friendly than a daily silicone charger.
