What it is and who it serves

This Dell SM65CL-01 is a new USB-C AC adapter rated for 85 W output. It accepts 100-240 V input at 50-60 Hz and delivers multiple voltage steps from 5 V up to 20 V. The unit suits owners of compatible Dell, Lenovo, HP, Acer and other USB-C laptops who need a replacement or spare charger.

Practical limits of the USB-C power standard

The adapter provides fixed current levels of 3 A at 5 V, 9 V, 12 V and 18 V, 3.25 A at 20 V and 8 A at 15 V. It cannot supply power above 85 W, so laptops that require 100 W or more will not charge at full speed. The 1.8 A input draw is within typical mains limits for travel use worldwide.

The specification that decides fit

Output power of 85 W and the listed voltage/current combinations determine whether this charger matches your laptop. If your device needs 65 W or 45 W the adapter will negotiate down safely, but a machine requiring 100 W will be under-powered. Always check your laptop's required wattage and USB-C power profile before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 65 W or the 85 W rating for my laptop?

The adapter delivers up to 85 W total output while supporting 65 W USB-C profiles; match your laptop's required wattage to the 20 V / 3.25 A rail for full speed.

What does the 85 W headline figure mean when I plug it in?

It is the maximum power the brick can supply across all voltage rails combined; your device will draw only the profile it negotiates, such as 20 V at 3.25 A for 65 W charging.

Does the USB-C connector support Power Delivery 3.0 and what voltage does it cap at?

The USB-C port provides fixed PDO voltages of 5 V, 9 V, 12 V, 15 V, 18 V and 20 V, each at 3 A except 20 V at 3.25 A, covering the 65 W PD profile.
