I have just bought https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08DHNWC3W/ref... for my iPhone

Could I use it to charge my MacBook 12" model using the appropriate USB C cable?

TIA

You can try it, but 5v and 2.1A isn’t going to do much.

Edit; actually, that’s not fair. It’s 10W. Still, it won’t charge very fast (if at all).

You're right.

It registers its plugged in but not charging. It does actually charge though, albeit slowly. Ideal I suppose if I launch it in a bag for a journey to get some free electricity.

Cheers
