TL;DR: This dock only supplies 65 W over it’s main USB-C connection, even though it ships with (and probably requires?) a 135 W power supply.

I’ve recently gotten this Docking Station. Online it says everywhere that it ships with and requires a 135 W power supply, which with most other ThinkPad docks leads to 95 W laptop charging.
I couldn’t find any info online whether the Thunderbolt 3 Essential Dock would make use of the extra wattage from the power supply to also charge laptops faster. Now that I have the dock, I can confirm my (Dell) laptop won’t charge with more than 65 W from this dock sadly. Same power supply + 40AY docking station shows 95 W on that same Dell laptop.

So yeah, just wanted to put that info out there because I was frustrated not to find it myself. I don’t really mind it only charging with 65 W, but I do wonder what the hell it’s doing with the 70 W of headroom…
