Just a small correction: the actual limit is lower, around 11.4 W, because that's how the battery charging IC (BQ24171) inside the PineBook Pro is configured; see my earlier post in which I've explained it in detail. It should be possible to reconfigure the BQ24171 and increase that limit to around 15 W, which would fully use what the chargers can provide; that's one of my future projects.
Thanks!
BTW, would love to hear how that project works out. Keep us posted!
