Answer» I just bought a RavPower Super-C Series 26800mAh Portable Chargre so that I can re-charge my Acer Switch Alpha 12 laptop/tablet while traveling. I can't seem to GET it to work. My Acer states that it's USB-C port can be used for charging. I have tried connecting my new RavPower but it won't work. Perhaps I'm not connecting it properly? Can anyone please help??? Thanks...
I think we discussed this before, if not the Acer switch can't be charged thru the usb port only with a 19V adapter. Sorry I was wrong
Seems with the correct adapter the usb c port can be used for charging as explained here. :

Seems it needs to be a 45W adapter with an output of 20V at 2.25A .
Sorry for the confusion, the internet is full of people with the same question looking for a suitable portable charger. At least now you know what to look for. Remember the 45W is for 1 charge if you need 2 or 3 charges the portable battery PACK will need higher wattage.
And there is still the suggestion for the same price as the power pack get a tablet and use your preset RavPower Super-C Series to charge it.Laptop Magazine did a review. Acer Switch Alpha 12 Review The article is about two years old. NEWER machines are better and cost less. IMO you have two choices. A. Get a very expensive EXTERNAL power pack. B. TRADE you machine in for a newer model.
Either way it will cost you money.
