I’m trying to build a USB-C only 10“ Rack. I would like to add a #Lenovo ThinkCentre M80q Gen 3. Has anyone tested the Lenovo USB-C to Slim-Tip adapter (Lenovo 4X90U45346) with a small ThinkCentre desktop before? #homelab #selfhosted #selfhosting
Maybe also @thinkpadmuseum help?

@nevarro @thinkpadmuseum I bought cheap usbc-> whatever tip ones. They power the three little thinkcentres I have perfectly. Good up to about 70w in my testing https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0FSVTN29L?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_5

@nevarro I have no personal experiences but I’d love to see your finished build. Sounds very interesting.

@nevarro @thinkpadmuseum I've tried. TLDR: might work with a really good power supply, for me it didn't with a cheap one, see https://sueden.social/@darthvader42/116000892925524188
