So then it will depend on your laptop. Not all laptops support it (they need a USB-C connector and likely support Power Delivery (PD) and if you're looking to reduce the weight, then look for the GAN models. Most laptops that support power delivery would be either PD60/65 or PD90/100. Gaming laptops (those that have GTX/RTX/Radeon discrete video cards) will not be supported as they consume a lot more power. But if you're using an M1 MacBook (for example) or a Windows/Linux Ultrabook, you might be in luck.
