Hi!
I think this is the right place to ask! I have an HP Envy x360 laptop and the charger for it broke a while back. I've been using the charger for my Nintendo Switch because it works enough, but it's very short and doesn't charge very fast. I bought one off of Amazon, but it didn't end up working (I'm sure I missed some sort of review about this). I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion for a good charger for this model? The original charger it came with was a 65W USB-C charger. Ideally something under $20, but feel free to include more expensive suggestions!
I’m in deep sh*t. Travelled with my work laptop but without it’s charger.
Now my laptop is dead and i have a teams meeting in 45 min.
Where can I rent one ? Borrow one ? Buy one immediately ?!
I sleep near Union Station.
UPDTADE: bought a charger at Walmart. My meeting got postponed
