Find out how Xtorm intregrates this technology in new and exciting ways, all with the goal of making your life easier and giving you #MoreEnergy.

A new standard

USB-C is a reversible connector that’s designed to deliver data and power to all kinds of devices. Chances are, if you have a brand new MacBook or Android smartphone, you are already using USB-C. Unlike the old (and often annoying) USB connector, USB-C can be plugged in either way.

USB-C Power Delivery (PD)

USB-C PD allows smartphones, tablets and laptops to be charged with up to 100W of power. For comparison, an old-fashioned USB port can deliver just 2.5W of power, just enough to charge a smartphone (very slowly). USB 3.1 already increases this to about 15W, but only USB-C PD is able to take it all the way to 100W. This is more than enough to charge any laptop, which is why many new models have incorporated USB-C PD into their designs.

Maybe your current laptop doesn’t have USB-C PD, but your next one probably will. With a Xtorm USB-C PD product you are ready for the future.

So...how does it work?

Simply put, USB-C PD works by allowing a “conversation” between the charger and the connected device. This determines the amount of power that can be delivered to charge your device.

Check out the comparison between regular charging vs USB-C PD below.

USB-C PD VS REGULAR CHARGING

It is important to note that USB-C PD only works with a special USB-C PD cable. This type of cable has an integrated e-marker chip, which is necessary to handle the “conversation”. A standard USB-C to USB-C cable does not possess this feature.
