    Will any Type C charger be OK

    I left my my tablet/PC charger at home today. Not a big deal but to prevent this in future maybe I should buy another to keep in my bag.

    From what i can determine 12v 3A with a type C connector.

    Is this pretty universal? Available at say any techy type booth at most big malls?
    Better to think inside the pub, than outside the box?
    I apologize if any offence was caused. unless it was intended.
    You people, you think I know feck nothing; I tell you: I know feck all

    PC/Tablet?
    What tablet is it? Or is it a tablet and a PC.

    Apple use usb-c now so no not all are the same.

    Not flash but it does the job.

    Looking at the specs, it says type c usb 3.0, so just buy that lead
    There is a newer type c usb 3.1which is twice as fast which would probably work too but your tablet wont produce those speeds anyway.

    For your tablet it says it can also take mini hdmi.(if you wanna plug it into a tv) I think that may need a type c-hdmi lead , but look at the ports.

    I doubt something that cheap supports quick charging, but check anyway.

    I use a variety of chargers that I've picked up over the years, I'm always forgetting the fucking things.

    Read here;

    Do not skimp on these cables USB C has the ability to move a lot of watts unlike previous formats so a cheap cable could fry a device. Always make sure the cable is USB IF certified as well.
