Pinebook Pro totally dead

I once took apart (and demolished) a tablet that was dead as it didn't charge anymore. It was my first USB-C device.
Later, when I got another USB-C device, I wanted to charge that with the old cable that came with the tablet and it turned out that the power coming out of the cable was nothing more than a leak-current.
I had destroyed my tablet because of a bad cable...
Now I have several USB-C devices, chargers and cables. Not every cable works as well it seems. Also a charger that is able to handle 3A is nice to have as some of my devices show irratic behaviour on 1,5 to 2A chargers. I have one of such 3A adapters and it works on every device I have
