My Dell laptop has a power cord/port, and it can also be charged by the USBC dock. The BIOS doesn't offer me the ability to turn off USB charging, though, so my low-power phone charger barely manages to charge the computer and power the HDMI connections and peripherals. I hoped the BIOS had the option, but basically I want to be able to say, "don't charge from the USBC when you are also charged in to the power port." Is that too much to ask?
@SmartFella It's not actually my phone charging it. It's a charger that used to be used to charge a phone but is now the power-in for my dock
@SmartFella the Dell Precision has a power pORT for a round AC plug, and also a single USBC port from which I can draw. Power through the dock. Yeah, weird that it has two ways to take a charge
