Important Notes
- An E-Marker cable is required to achieve charging speeds above 100W.
- For Dell laptops, maximum output is limited to 60W due to Dell’s proprietary charging protocol. Devices requiring over 100W may display slow charging alerts.
- To maintain optimal performance across all ports, unplug cables when not in use.
- When charging a MacBook, it’s normal to see a plug symbol in the battery icon temporarily; charging resumes normally after about one minute due to device recognition protocols.
- The charger may reduce output during extended high-load use as part of its over-temperature protection system—this is normal and protects both the charger and connected devices.
- Includes: Anker 140W 4-Port GaN Charger, 5 ft 240W USB-C cable, user manual, 18-month warranty, and customer support.
