The HP 65 W USB-C LC power adapter is a power adapter for laptops in the business segment and is used for power supply and charging of mobile devices. It is designed for indoor use and provides a maximum output power of 65 watts. The device is specifically developed for HP notebook models equipped with a USB Type-C® connector, enabling flexible use in the office or on the go. Power supply is achieved via an AC-to-DC converter, with the power adapter connecting to the mains network using a Schuko plug (Type F CEE 7/4).
Applications
The power adapter is designed for use in office environments and mobile work processes. It is suitable for all HP notebook models listed in the official compatibility lists, including various models from the EliteBook, ProBook, Elite x360, Dragonfly, Fortis, and Chromebox series. The compact design, with dimensions of 90 mm (width) × 51 mm (depth) × 28.5 mm (height) and a weight of 235 g, allows for easy portability. The operating temperature range is between 0 and 35 °C, with storage temperatures ranging from -20 to 85 °C. Relative humidity during operation may range from 20 to 95 %.
Functions and Features in Detail
The power adapter supports HP Fast Charge technology, enabling accelerated charging. According to the manufacturer, a device can be charged up to 50 % in 30 minutes or up to 90 % in 90 minutes under specific conditions (system in standby or powered off). After reaching these capacities, the charging speed reverts to normal. Charging time may vary by ±10 % depending on system tolerance. The device delivers an output voltage of 20 V at a maximum power of 65 W, and also supports other voltages (5 V, 9 V, 12 V, 15 V) to ensure compatibility with various devices. The input voltage range is 90 V to 264 V AC (47–63 Hz), with a maximum input current of 1.6 A.
Technology Explained Simply
The power adapter converts alternating current from the mains into direct current required for charging laptops. The USB Type-C® interface enables universal connectivity, as it is compatible with all USB-C ports. The efficiency of the device is at least 89 % at an input voltage of 115 V or 230 V AC and an output voltage of 20 V/3.25 A. The hold-up time is 5 ms at 115 V AC, meaning the device can continue supplying power for a short period even during a power outage. The maximum output current limit is 8 A to prevent damage to the device.
Compatibility and Accessories
The power adapter is compatible with a wide range of HP notebook models, including those from the EliteBook, ProBook, Elite x360, Dragonfly, Fortis, and Chromebox series. Exact compatibility is documented in the QuickSpecs of the respective HP products. The device is delivered with a USB Type-C® cable and a power cable, each with a length of 180 cm. Additionally, a warranty card is included in the delivery scope. The warranty includes a one-and-a-half-year limited manufacturer's warranty.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by connecting the power adapter to a socket via the Schuko plug and connecting the USB Type-C® cable to the laptop. No special mounting is required, as the device connects directly to the device. The connection is simple and does not require additional tools or configurations.
Operational Advantages
