Power pass through USB-C dock that works? (HDMI out and charges phone)
#1
I am not sure if that is the right term, the "power pass through" if I'm looking to buy a dock like the convergence.

I'm aware of the Pinebook dock... but assuming it works for PPP I'm sadly not trying to order from overseas at this time (dealing with DHL in my case is annoying).

Right now for Manjaro/Plasma Mobile I'm using this FlePow 7-in-1 USB-C adapter which works (I get HDMI out) however it is not powered so the PPP quickly dies.

I was looking into providing power through the pogo pins but that might have problems (with USB-C port plugged in at the same time).

I just want to make sure I buy the right thing... but if they're like $30 I guess I can try a couple here and there to find one that works.

I'll scope around other threads to see what people are using.

Interestingly... Manjaro Phosh does not do HDMI out, or as reliably as Plasma Mobile.

edit: USB-C PD input might be a term too

yeah the battery life unpowered is very short, under an hour from full charge
