- Cathay 777-300: 80w works
- United 777-200 and 767-300: None work
- United 787-10: 80w works
I'm flying JAL this summer, so I'm curious as well.
Excellent information, good to know, surprised with United actually. I'll try to come back and update this with my results in May. I'll have a 77W and a 789 to test out on JL.
I'm guessing your X1 Extreme is a couple years old if only a 105w brick stock. Current gen with RTX 3xxx series graphics cards start at 230w now because the high power draw of the video card (115-150 watt depending on which RTX model), and Legions have gone from 230w (previous gen w/ RTX 2xxx) to 300w (w/ RTX 3xxx). The brick is ridiculously huge (and heavy). I guess for the OP, depends what generation his Alienware is, because like Lenovo, they don't throttle the wattage of the graphics card like Gigabyte and MSI do on their gaming systems.
