Surface Pro 7 problem with the USB-C port
I have a Surface Pro 7 (i7, 16GB, 512GB). I am trying to attach a usb-c 6-in-1 adapter to the usb-c port. Most of these usb-c adapters have a power feed port to supply enough power for several device...
UPDATE: CORRECTION - After reading some technical specs and trying different scenarios, I have found that you can charge the Surface Pro 7 through the USB-C port. The problem turned out to be that the power I was supplying to the USB-c port on the 6-in-1 adpater was not sufficient wattage. I had a 65W power adapter with a USB-c connector that I connected to the USB-c port on the 6-in-1 adapter and the Surface Pro 7 definitely charged very nicely. As a result, I have not had any problems of erratic behavior when I use USB devices on the adapter. I will update this if I notice any other problems. tbneff
