W530 not powering on from a 65W charger?

[User32]

I got a W530 here but no charger aside from a 65W one I already had, and with it it doesn't seem to turn on. (or rather, it turns on for a few seconds and then shuts off)

Charger too weak?

Yes, I guess, that you will need a 170W Power Supply.

Shit. Considering it's untested and needs a lot more than just a charger I guess i'll just part it out then.

Minimum is 135W for running (with wrong power supply warning). Loading an battery does work on 90W in turned off state. Perhaps this already helps to test.

Worst part is I have a P50 but it's got the square charger. So I need to acquire a 135 or 170W charger to even test it. Great.

There are power jack adapter which could help. Most are the other way round but the ones you would need exist. (for example: https://de.aliexpress.com/item/3296...xp_id=4fa58587-8f5e-4ec6-a2f5-cf3f0c0f87aa-32)

Btw. - were are you located? Perhaps a forum member could provide one for testing purposes?

Netherlands, so not close unfortunately.

I can get a 170W charger locally for €10 plus shipping though, might just sell the T6x's as-is and get a charger for the W530 instead.

Good news, said W530 works just fine on the 170W charger I bought.

EDIT: and for shits 'n giggles I 1vyrained it too.

EDIT 2: aaaand it's dead. Repasting somehow killed the fan and now I can't boot. Sigh. Oh well, up for sale as parts/nonworking it goes.
