Comment on Potential Super Cheap Charger - Ikea SJOSS
aBundleOfFerrets@sh.itjust.works 3 months agoI would be wary of such cheap USB-PD chargers. It is not uncommon for them to fail in ways that kill devices (I work for the tech department of a school district and we unfortunately have a strict OEM-only policy around chromebook chargers due to a wave of these killing chromebooks)

Let’s be honest, the reason for that policy is so that if a Chromebook does fail you can go back to the manufacturer for warranty coverage.
I would trust an Anker charger just as much as an OEM charger.

Obviously anker would probably be fine, I am talking about these no-name boxes from unpronounceable amazon sellers
