Also, I always thought it was incredibly rude of my work laptop to say my chargers at home aren't powerful enough. I have two 100w GAN 5 chargers and it complains every time I plug them in.

I looked at a charger at work today, 165w! These laptops barely last an hour on a teams call unplugged. Why do they need so much power and areso inefficient?
