Hi there,
I have an existing Dell 130w Power Supply and it has a cable fitted with a male 4.5mm Barrel Connector that plugs into the side of the Dell laptop with a female 4.5mm socket receptor.
I would like to use this existing power supply to power another Dell laptop that has a female USB Type C socket receptor on the side of the laptop.
I am seeking an adapter that would have the following characteristics.
1) Female 4.5mm barrel socket on one side
2) Male USB Type C socket on the other side
3) The adaptor would be rated for 130watts.
Can you please help!
Many thanks

Are the voltages the same and does the other dell restrict the USB C in any way? Since the power supply with the barrel jack does not know how to negotiate in USB C you might ruin the battery or laptop.
