Can I charge the power via usb type-c or thunderbold 4 of acert swift 5?
And if I can, which port does I need to charge?

I have adaptor eloop c5, spec inform 65w with 20V=3.25A. I'm not sure it's can charge acer swift 5(55TA, Intel gen11 cpu) or not.

- Output USB-C1: DC 3.3V-11A=5A(PPS), 5V=3A, 9V=3A, 12V=3A, 15V=3A, 20V=3.25A (65W Max)

Sorry for the simple question, I am making a purchase decision. Therefore there is a doubt

Thank you

    Are you asking about one of the SF514-55TA models? Acer's spec sheet doesn't call out charging via the Thunderbolt port, and the labeling on the side next to the port only have the Thunderbolt symbol, not the DC power symbol as well. That leads me to believe they are not supporting charging the laptop from that port. That's not to say it isn't actually there, just that they aren't *saying* it's there. I would expect it would be a sales feature so if they had it they'd call it out... Specs do say you can charge other devices, like your phone, up 15W on the port.
