Laptop Barrel Jack to USB-C Converter - www.aliexpress.com/item/40012...
CAUTION:
1. You must find the right barrel jack to USB-C converter for your laptop that has the same voltage marked. Do not buy any random one to avoid potentially damaging your laptop due to different laptop voltages. Most laptops support between 18V-20V. Look on the back of your laptop and confirm the voltage with the adapter you are purchasing. The USB-C adapter internals my look different to mine so please bear that in mind.
2. You must use a USB-C Charger that is equal to or more than the wattage of your original charger (which is typically more than 65W). You cannot use a typical phone charger to charge your laptop because it does not have enough power. You must use a USB-C to C cable that supports charging, and not USB-A to C.
3. Be sure to properly protect any bare wires or pads with heatshrink, glue or tape. You do not want any electrical hazards here nor airport customs to annoy you for your dodgy laptop. Do it right the first time. Do not use hot glue, it will melt from the heat while charging.

FYI - My laptop is the HP Spectre x360 13-4102tu. I bought this connector - amzn.to/3ro9Z5F. Pretty amazing laptop! Why should I throw it out when you can just mod it? This will work for nearly every laptop I am sure no matter how much space you have. Give it a crack! If you happen to make something even better than me be sure to @ me on Twitter!

@@JoeGaz If my laptop already has a USB c port but not for charging what do you recommend
@@christianflores3437 Well does it charge using barrel jack? If so heck yea I would mod it! Why not. Otherwise just buy the adapter and keep it with you wherever you go. Buy a USB-C charger and boom. Ez :)
Planning to do this on my IdeaPad S340-15API. Thanks so much for the tutorial, I can't wait to ditch the stupid brick charger - I have a tiny little GaN charger that delivers exactly 20V @ 3.25A like the official brick does so it should be a massive saving.
Sure will, my MSI, ASUS, Acer and a iBM ThinkPad laptops will all get this treatment.
I like how every simple fix starts with buying a 3D printer.
Nah not really, you can always have someone print it for you locally or online. Or you can just hot glue it in place so theres no gaps at all.
@@Drenixx As someone who bought their first 3D printer recently, I can guarantee you that the first attempt is pretty much never completely successful; the printing process affects the tolerances in a way you didn't anticipate, some elements need modifying, the print settings caused warping/delamination/part coming off the bed etc. There are always a number of iterations you go through, and going to someone who has a 3D printer will be inconvenient for both yourself and them.
They are getting more affordable for hobbyists. Alternatively, you could ask a friend to print you 3D printer components to build your own, as there are designs out there that have been tried and tested and will have a low chance of failure.
@HarmonicaMustang Use and design 3D printed bits at work, 100 percent correct, better off buying a cheap one and playing around yourself. Very very useful if you know how to use them (I don't yet!)
thermoglue or epoxy would also work well
@@Drenixx literally what I would have done worst case or I would have at least cut some thin ABS plastic as a housing and permanently glue it together to keep it in place.

This was all possible far before europoor one world government coerced an American company into using a particular standard. The solution?-not fucking using an iPhone. You are unfortunately incapable of making decisions on your lonesome, however. Now we are stuck with a standard that will stagnate for the time being.
Mate, that is definitely the best mod. I am surprised there aren’t more tech shops offering this type of mod as a service for older machines.
It might not be the most reliable, So not actually viable to sell this service but very good as a DIY.
@@ayushkaushik8794and it propably depends on the exact notebook, if they would even do it in the first place. I don't think many customers would be happy with one like in this video, where you have holes above and below the socket
Yes, it's probably because it's going to be different for each laptop so it's gonna take time and some 3d prints for them to get to the final result.
@@kostaz13 It's really not something you can offer as a service. For a diy hack its great but too janky and very time consuming to fit to all the different laptop models. I can imagine you could do it with a product thats common, expensive and has a micro usb port since those are similar in size and shape. I love my bose qc35 for example but its literally the only gadget I got that still uses micro usb and I hate them for that.
You can instead buy an adapter. Usb C to DC adapter.
Logical and simple, makes the laptop better. I did a similar thing converting my trackpad to rechargeable LiPo rather than AA’s.
Smart! I like it.
Your trackpad???
@@christianflores3437 An Apple A1339, I now charge it via USB.
@@FixTechStuff oh WOW it's exactly what you said it was. Idk what they were
You are simply damaging and making laptop more difficult to resell. Simply keep using that tiny adapter, not that difficult.
If only companies stopped being so childish about proprietary cables
You should've mentioned that it won't work for every laptop (talking about you Dell), as some won't charge the battery if it thinks the power source isn't legit. Usually adapters have a extra wire inside the connector (center pin) that is used for the communication.
Yep, very annoying. Fortunately my dell will charge via the type c port as well, unfortunately most cheap type c dongles hate power pass through. So on the road it is fine, at my desk I have a proper power jack. Lenovo also does funny things.
No need anymore. EU has implemented directive that all electronics has to come with USB-C start from 2024. So the next Dell laptop should include by default USB-C
@@CONTINUUM2 I'm aware of that and that's a positive thing. He was talking about older laptops in the video (without type c).
Correct but if you happen to find the right aliexpress adapter online, (which is cheap to try) buy it and then see if it works. If it does and provides the right wattage under load etc, then you know you can hack you laptop like I did and this will work. I would expect the seller who made the converter to consider these issues. Give it a try :)
I do find it rather weird third-party manufacturers doesn't include the the functionality needed to charge Dell laptops. It's either a 1 cent resistor or a 10 cent chip needed.
I've been using that tip adapter method for a while on my Asus Vivobook once I realized I could just buy a high watt GaN charger and USB-C. I figured an internal mod would work but you've just confirmed it - great video! I'll have to give this a go sometime as these little adapters work but they're annoying
wich vivobook do you have and what adapter did you bought? i have the vivobook d515 and i want to buy the adapter to use with a gan charger and maybe do the internal mod in the future but i don't know much about wich barrel plug does asus use
Wait, it works with asus vivobook? The usb-c to dc jack converter?
@@Kncperseusi mean, it's just DC. Most barrel Jacks aren't designed to communicate with the charger, but rather just take whatever voltage they get and pass it to the internal voltage regulators. So as long ad you find an Adapter for your voltage with a fitting plug, there is no reason, why i shouldn't work
Love that travel sleeve on the backpack! Genius
That is so clever. I recently bought a mini PC specifically because it was USB C charged, which there are not a lot that are yet, but I predict we are going to see more and more as CPUs get more efficient, I love it, I made my own laptop essentially, I have an Anker USB C PD Battery, have one cable go to my Morefine m6 computer, and one cable go to my Huion 16" drawing tablet. so now I can do digital art anywhere in the world, and no bulky 12v wall warts.
not only computer getting more efficient, charger is getting more powerful and type c also can carry more power
But half the laptops sold nowadays can be charged via USB C. No need to go mini
@@johnwt7333 I know but it would suck to have both a laptop and drawing tablet on my lap say if I were drawing in a car. Plus when a laptop gets damaged, it is a whole system issue, but with USB c linking, and wireless keyboard mouse, I can swap out damaged parts which will happen with my job.
I considered it though, there are some sleek laptops out there, but I'm a digital artist and need a windows platform
Wtf ? Idk what you are saying that you would see more pcs with USB c with CPUs being more efficient, my laptop does have USB c port that does work for charging (and barrel as main input charger)and is from 2017 with hungry, inefficient, and lots of energy waste as heat - Intel i7 plus Nvidia 1050, . I bought a 100w USB c charger (about same size as apples 100w USB c but cheaper and 2 more ports)and work wonderfully, and if you'd have a USB c with pd charging feature you can get that adapter (USB c or barrwl) no need to wait. Now if we could use gerpneric USB charger THEN I second you'd with cup being more energy efficient and les TDP that opens the door to any charger laying around. I been eyeing the anker100w super small charger (normal generic USB charge sized) since cpus are not getting enh more efficient fast enough to able to use my USB charger that came with my phone
Subscribed from the 1st video! Legendary dude
That a really cool mod!
Thanks for demonstrating it!
No worries! Thanks for watching!
Awesome hack. Really glad the industry is shifting towards USB-C power delivery charging now
Thanks for the video! Really appreciate the ideas to save money and how to keep up to date with tech.
Definitely. Even new laptops today come with these older chargers. A bit sad and it needs to change.
I like so much your songs in this video like a bossa nova! Cheers from Brazil!
oiii br kkkk
Bro, that's a really well done mod. Pretty neat. Very interesting video
Thanks man!
Lol I just did the same with a couple beater laptops I have then stumbled on this… yours has way more care and aesthetically pleasing, I was in a rush and didn’t care, but works great!
You still did an amazing job! if it works and it is safe - it's perfect!
Glad to see you back
Thank you so much! Enjoy!
Fantastic job mate, like it a lot
Thank you! Cheers!
I love the idea. I really love how powerful USB C is.
Yep. USB-C can provide 100 W.
Nice Work Well Done!
what you really need is a type c pd 20V to dc jack adapter (looks like 3.5x1.35mm) which only costs $5
I actually thought "damn that's a nice bag" when it popped up, so happy you spoke about it :-)
I think so too! Best one I have had so far :) I love green.
It was paid to speak about it!
For anyone looking: There are now variable voltage charging controllers, where you Bridge two pads with solder, depending on the voltage you need
May be simpler than find one that does your voltage
Aren't the specific voltage ones cheaper?
It even turns gold
Awesome video and neat trick! Would like to emphasize that disadvantages and advantages to any solutions are important as the community for modding would like to talk about them. Such as testing 20v power delivery during gaming, alot of power adapter have proprietary pins that enable them to delivery maximum power. I know apple does this and maybe other manufacturers but in your case it seems to work well!
I can't do that thing in my dell laptop. I bought a brand new 11th gen Dell laptop. It came with a 45W power adapter with a barrel jack. My previous HP laptop also has the same jack. So I tried to plug it in to the new laptop. Dell power manager made a popup saying incompatible charger. It doesn't charge the battery, but I can run my laptop from that charger without draining the battery. It seems like communication between charger and laptop is required to operate normally. So it is impossible to do this mod into my laptop. It won't charge the battery. I am using Dell Inspiron 3501 laptop with 11th gen i3-1115G4.
@@isharadhanushan2002 is the voltage and Amps the same in the old and new charger? If they're different they may not work, funny because I got 2 Samsung chargers, 25 W both, one from my old Galaxy S8 and bought a new one with the USB C to USB C type for my S21 Ultra and amperage is a bit different but both turn to be 25W, so the old charger doesn't activate the fast charging but the new charger does in the S8. So I'm thinking that maybe in your case with your laptop your new charger is to powerful for your old laptop and they don't work with the same voltage and amps (different wattage) also considering that old laptops use 18650 cell type batterys and newer use LiPo batteries
@@luisgaleana1111 Both chargers are using 19.5V DC.
@@isharadhanushan2002 some batteries have a communication line with chargers, it means you might need to find out first if your laptop model uses it. It's basically like USB in some phones that use 4 pins, power, data line +, data line -, ground and even though we might think that to charge up the battery we just need + & - they don't because they need the data lines
@@luisgaleana1111 It's true for all iPhones. iPhones can't be charged by just giving 5V to the power pins. Data lines are also needed to communicate with the charger.
I like just adding a USB c port and labeling it then I just keep the original charger as backup. Nicely done
nice video, love your engineering work! btw, what is your retractable usb c cable you use and also the charging brick? They look so neat

@@JoeGaz Thanks!

Good work, bro
This guy really said “fine, I’ll do it myself “
that bye sounded like the bye have a great time one
The USB type-C thing is one gripe I have with anything made in the last 5 year, there's no reason why something should have USB mini-b on it any more. My phone, drone and even both the work lights I have at the garage I work at all use type-c for charging. Finding out about those laptop adapters to type-c makes me want to mod my 10 year old Acer work laptop and my wireless head set to charge off of type-c or at least use fast chargers seeing as the power bar build in to my tool box has fast charge able USB posts on it. Great video and awesome mod !!!
I agree. I hate anything without USB-C now. It's just so convenient.
I already have both charging ports in my laptop but I like to use the usb-c port for my external disc drive because it's fast & convenient.
You earned a sub when you played Mozart in the background. A man of culture indeed.
My laptop saying it plugged in but not charging because it can not determine charger ! Bcz that one signal port is missing ! How to solve that problem?
if your laptob already has USB C port but charges with a barrel jack, how should you mod it soo that you can charge with USB C
Well done.😎👍
Wow that was so much simpler than using a USB-c to 12v adapter!
🤣lol right
i will consider this, but might ADD the usb-c connector instead of replacing the barrel jack. should not be too hard.
i could also just use the usb-c port already on my laptop(has usb-pd and dp) but it's in an annoying spot..
3:35 What software did you use to measure the voltage?
His "old" notebook is way better than my usual notebook. Nice
Cool idea. But how much Watt-s, connector can withstand?
Hi nice video . btw which modelling software did u used?
you can also buy the pd trigger module directly
That’s a really great mod. Too bad the USB-C is limited to charging but at least is one less brick to carry
How does that keyboard work is you didn't connect the USB data lines?
I am planning to do a similar mod with mine. I just wanted to know if you can charge this device from a portable power bank on the USB C port you installed.
I also have an HP Spectre and I have several upgrades/repairs I need to do. Cracked Screen, Battery, Replacement, Storage Upgrade etc. My charging port seems to needs to be replaced as well. I'll probably start the upgrades and repairs in late june I'd like to try this Mod do you sell the 3d housing or at least the file?
Did you have any problems with the polarity of the power charger?? How to solve?
I'm surprised why this still isn't an actual thing in most new laptops, Its game Changing
awesome 5mins... straight to the point and no BS 😂
Great idea.
It will be great for overnight charging. If you have a gaming laptop and want to play and charge.... this will have limitations. My laptop requires 2xUSB C connection to be able to run at full power and charge. A charging brick will be just as big, but having a brick that works for everything is space efficient.
100% true! Gaming laptops might be difficult with this mod. Great thing 240W USBC is around the corner! There might be some gaming laptops that will suffice with this mod if their original charger is 100W. Anything more like yours will not work.
@@JoeGaz240W Gaming laptops won't work with 240W USB-C. No Gaming laptop take in a 48V like 240W USB does, but gaming laptops take something like that: 20-20V at 12-10A for 240W.
@@volodumurkalunyak4651 no problem, as long as you can fit a dc-dc converter inside it
@@volodumurkalunyak4651 the 48v is just so they can hit 240w without a huge amount of amps to keep the wire gauge down. It'll be converted down to 12v, 5v, and 3.3v internally for respective components.
@@HerbaMachina only if DC-DC converter fits. Take modern gaming laptop and you probably won't have a place to make it fit.
Whats the size of the filerods you used?
is it still good ? i Think Type C charger worknig with Power Delivery communication. so except
The other day I bought a battery-powered flashlight, and I didn't notice that the charging socket is round, like an old Nokia. I didn't expect such a catch in 2024
What PC app did you use to see power info at 3.35?
Hi, someone knows what software is using to see the specs and voltages of the battery?
Good luck explaining that one.
Airport security: "Sir, can you come with me."
Travelled the world with this laptop and no issues so far.
WELL DONE
Pretty good mod, I always approve converting things to USB-C. For those who don't want to open their laptop, there's always the converter. Just make sure to get a proper one from a reputable seller! You don't want to skimp out on USB-C peripherals unless you like setting things on fire.
Did you cover the hole around the port with uv glue.
a breakdown of the pinout connections would have been nice on how you figured out what went where?, I saw 2 red and 2 black soldered wires, what about that last wire? no mention of it?
One question, PD charging only supports 20v while most laptop with barrel plugs take 19v or 19.5v as input. Wouldn't this cause problem with battery or the motherboard?
Most laptop charging circuits support a range of voltage. It might say to you 19.5v on the laptop, but its circuit could 'support' a range - ie 19.0v to 20.0v. So it should be ok. They wouldn't make these connectors otherwise. Best way to go about it is to test the removable jacks you can get on aliexpress. if it works with this then you know the mod is compatible!

Dell has a sense wire that needs to be dealt with. Might be difficult for your one. Buy the right replacement connector to usb-c it will do this for you I believe.

@@JoeGaz And what you do with pin id?
Oh, sorry, you have no ideea what i'm talking about!
HP, Dell and from some time Asus laptops they need to speak with charger in order to charge / start the laptop in some case.
That’s wonderful but i have a few questions doesn’t the charging brick makes sure that the power is correct and accurate for the battery so does any charging brick works or do we hve to have a smart brick which can make sure that the handshake is done properly for the correct power delivery
The little PCB I show you has the chip which tells the charger the proper voltage to deliver the correct power to the laptop.
ah yes, just make the laptop a potential firehazard because the adapter is not good enough for you.
so simple idea but so good. if youd produce this "mod adapters" youd be rich
Great video
Thanks!
Hey man I got a same issue with a new device I bought Lenovo Miix 520.
But I dont really feel comfortable doing the soldering etc,
But as your mentioned about the adaptors, USB C to 4.0 mm *1.7 mm.
You reckon those are reliable to use with generic laptop type 87W USB C chargers ?
Give it a try with just the removable adapter and let us know the results!
@@JoeGaz works fully fine
More than fine,
I bought a whole set of universal barrels round plug to usb c charger
I'm quite inspired to learn electronics because of this. Can you recommend any begginer books or tutorials in Electronics?
Many free books and tutorials on youtube - check out EEVBLOG
@@JoeGaz will do! Thanks!!!
Adafruit is also a huge resource, it can be expensive to buy from their shop sometimes, but you can also shop around
Where you get that c to c compact cable? Link plz
the connector you use cannit hold the high wattage you need a ticker wore
I want that bag!
Could anyone tell me what this cable is he is showing at the very end? Some flatband self rolling USB C cable! i have been searching one for ever
You mean the retractable cable? It's located in the description. Cable Matters makes that one.
Would I possibly be able to contact you for the 3D print file? I have the same exact laptop and was recently thinking about it not having a USB-C port (and how annoying that is)
Is there any way to modify a laptops usb 3.1 port to a C type?
Just a note to keep in mind! Several manufacturers use handshaking with the chargers via 1-Wire - lenovo is a prime example of this. Don't go changing your laptops w/o checking wether or not it uses handshaking! You'd NOT be able to charge a laptop like that withouth also converting it's OG charger...
Dell is another common one that does it
@@noelswedzinski4498 yes. And I don't get why. Why TF does it matter that you use the correct voltage and wattage, but the charger is not genuine? Stupid locking of modularity...
There are a lot of dodgy laptop charger makers I wouldn't trust my laptop with, at least it helps protect that.
If you find the right adapter on Aliexpress, this would already have been 'modified' for you so that it works.
@@JoeGaz Yes - but if you do not know about the 1wire communication, you will not be looking for this. The vid does not mention this. So it is unwise to just start doing a hack on ones laptop. Other than that, we at work use 1wire and let me tell you, it is not usually that "obvious". Even if you put an IC into the USB-C converter, you must have proper data on the IC. So one might need a 1-Wire programmer and write proper codes on the IC. Depending on the IC there can be a fair few entries, checksums, etc - so a simple copy from the OG charger might also not be enough.
I made a small program that calculated the CRC codes for data and it usually includes the ICs serial number. And this is proprietary as heck based on manufacturer. I have not directly checked what Lenovo and others do on their part and there is no "openly" available documentation (I tried to get one previously when I was working with 1wire and wanted to check what my charger does). If I were to guess there would be some data about the voltage and supported wattages (I have about 10+ lenovo bricks at home and almost all of them works with any of our lenovo laptops). So if you create a custom charger, you must tell the laptop what wattage it supports, calculate CRC and burn the data. I'd say there aren't "premade" softwares for this. And without digging into this the guide suggests that you can "just do it".
I simply wanted to bring attention to this, as there are limitations.
A very good mod ,but what about the charging speed as compared to the original , there might be a drop in a current as using a smaller brick
Hey Joe, what pc case is that ?
Does it convert from 20v to 19v? Usually ac barrels are desinged to work on 19v and might affect the battery
This isn't lab equipment and 5% voltage deviation almost garaunteed to fall into nominal working range.
anything between 18V to 21V will be just fine.... the battery charges from a voltage generated via PWM with some mosfets...usually close to the voltage of the battery...so much less than 19V.
What's the name of that USB cable you use ?
