The manufacturer has confirmed that it is not a PD-capable charger.

Quote:I assume it is a PD-capable charger, so Pinecil can request 20V and it is able to provide up to 3.25A for Pinecil - generally it should be a perfect fit.


@VaZso Do you still think that I can use it to power the Pinecil and hopefully not damage it?

It should be either a QC or PD-capable charger and both should be okay for Pinecil.
For QC, my Baseus chargers needed a timeout setting for PD negotiation timeout which is part of the latest firmware update but it works well by setting this timeout to 15.

As of QC protocol, there are a very few chargers which support 20V over QC (although I have such a charger, so it exists).
However, Type-C capable notebooks work over PD protocol, so if this charger really supports "5V/2.4A, 9V/3A, 12V/3A, 15V/3A, 18V/3A,20V/2.25A, and 20V/3.25A, Max Power Output: 65Watts" as they state, it should be a PD-capable charger (power supply).

However, I am not surprised at anything since I saw there are "notebook chargers" which have 12V output over Type-C connector without any negotiation (they should not exists anyway).

As of seller replies who has recommended a 45W or 30W charger for something which would need 20V * 3A = 60W, I would not think to know too much information about the product to be sold...

If it is either a QC or PD power supply, it should work... but based on the supported voltages, technically it should be one of them (definitively PD for notebooks).
However, it is another question if the power supply is really can provide 65W power output...
