Died after 7 months - Accessory

I used it every day to charge a small subnotebook. I bought it for its advertised 95W output and the ability to occasionally charge my phone from one of the other USB ports while traveling. The original subnotebook charger was rated at 60W and the Nekteck appeared to be a cheaper and more powerful alternative to simply buying an original factory charger. This Nekteck charger lasted about 7 months and as of today is not providing enough power to turn on my computer or charge the battery. I had to borrow my wife's charger to print this review on my computer. It charges low-power devices (e.g. a 1.5W mobile phone) via USB-A, but will not even charge at 45W (at reduced computer performance) via USB-C. I need at least 60 watts and this was specified as 95 watts. . So for my intended application, it's pretty much useless to me. Buyer Warning. Looks like I'll still buy a more expensive original charger as a replacement.
