Laptop with charger with less watts than original power supply?

I recently bought an Asus Zenbook pro duo as my daily PC / workstation and sometimes also a companion.

exact designation: UX581LV-H2024T

with i9 10980hk

rtx 2060

32GB ram

now to the real question:

the power supply is really huge and heavy. Understandable with 230 watt output.

now I was wondering if I can charge the laptop with a 100 watt power supply when I'm on the go.

USB C charging is not supported, I have already checked that.

when I connect a 100w USB C charger using an adapter to 6.0 x 3.7 DC, it briefly shows charging, then battery operation again, recharging and so on.

can someone help me to solve the problem or do I simply need a 230watt power supply to charge the battery?

That is usually possible. The battery will still be empty under load.

No

Yes you can do that… But only when the PC is off (because the PC is in mains operation (at least the "Gaming Pcs") draw their power from the power supply)

If your PC is off, it should work…

I do it myself with my Acer nitro 5 … I have another Acer notebook and am usually too lazy to look for the large power adapter

If you do that, the laptop has to be off, if you don't, the landing won't last long

the power supply is really huge and heavy. Understandable with 230 watt output.

For a very expensive, very heavy monster gaming laptop (most of it is waste heat that has to be dissipated)

USB C charging is not supported, I have already checked that.

normal, at 230 watts… With 23 volt DC output it would be 10 amps… With 46 volt DC still 5 amps…

Data on the laptop:

Power supply: ø 6.0, 230W AC adapter, output: 19.5V DC, 11.8A, 230W, input: 100 ~ 240V AC 50/60 Hz universal

→ the plug must also fit…
