Chargers for Microsoft Surface

Q: Can you charge a Microsoft Surface with a different charger?

Yes. There are many third-party USB-C chargers you can use if your Surface device supports charging via USB-C. For example, Anker 747 Charger (GaNPrime 150W) comes with 3 USB-C ports and supports charging your Microsoft Surface devices at up to 100W. Additionally, there are also docking stations for Microsoft Surface to provide both data transfer and efficient and safe power supply.

Q: Can I use a 65W charger instead of 44W for my Surface laptop?

Yes, you can use a 65W charger instead of a 44W charger for your Surface laptop. The laptop will only draw as much power as it needs due to its built-in power management system, so using a higher-wattage charger will not damage your laptop. In fact, it may actually charge your laptop faster given the higher wattage.

Anker offers high-quality Surface chargers with advanced technology, featuring up to 6 ports and an intelligent multi-device Fast Charging System. Despite their smaller size, they deliver the same power output while ensuring safety with Anker’s ActiveShield 2.0 technology.
