great price
update the last time i made a keen observation about the posted Specs the seller chimed to clear things up
the Specs are not correct i do not thinks its 5.4 in x 5.4 x 1.4 inplease read this POST for possible info on this item
even Apples 87w adapter is only 3.15 x 3.15 x 1.1 in

if you want a cheap SMALLER one look at the item reviewed in this post from AMAZON that is $20 and 3.15 x 3.15 x 1.18 in BUT I THING THEY ARE THE SAME

but imo both above are unknown
i would at least consider the 90w Ravpower 2 Port that is only 2. 5 x 2. 5 x 1. 2in but cost lot more
or the Aukey 100w 1 port 2.24 x 2.24 x 1.26 in
in the past i picked up the Ravpower 90w Renewed 2 port for $22.25 must resist this deal with only 1 port and for the size
I grabbed one of these a while back and it works well, BUT it makes those high pitched screeching and squeaking noises. It also caused my 2020 MacBook Air to make those noises when plugged in. I've not had that problem with the Apple charger or an Anker powerport atom iii. I have and will continue to buy from monoprice as I love most of their stuff—just this one wasn't my favorite product of theirs.
Qualified for AMEX local business credit of $5 too.
Thanks OP

I am sure it will work on MacBook Air and 13" MacBook Pro?

How about 15" or 16" MBP?

and Dell XPS 9570 late 2018 model?

Looks like 9570 has its own power cord, not sure if I can charge it via USB-C?

Thanks.
You can charge via usb c.

Can this charge a iphone 11 with the quick charge? Does this 85W supply too much charging power to the iphone 11? Does the iphone 11 know to draw the maximum 18W?
Yes for quick charging iPhone. All devices will report acceptable profiles and only charge at acceptable rates so no worries. However, better for lithium ion battery if you slow charge it (less heat) so ideally you should slow charge it daily and use only the quick charging when you actually need the speed.

Does AMEX small business credit also work through paypal? Don't you have to pay directly with Amex?

If you pay with paypal, the transaction would be reported as Paypal and NOT Monoprice.

I guess it may due to pay pal. So far, none of my 3 order came with AMEX offer confirmation email.

I guess maybe Monoprice has not charged the card yet?

What is wrong with the picture showing the size of this thing? Clearly its square shape, but they have the dimension in the photo as 2.8"x5.4"?

No way this thing is 5.4" inches.

Could be. I can see a temporary hold from monoprice on my amex already.

I believe you only need 65W for the XPS, so this will be more than sufficient.

How do you see a temporary hold on Amex through Monoprice when you paid through Paypal?

That baffles me as well. In fact, no mention of paypal in the pending charge description at all.
My guess is that Amex has already learned to extract merchant info from paypal charge.

No confirmation email from AMEX. Paid directly on the credit card and am in CA also. I've gotten the notification instantly when I did the Starbucks gift cards through Samsung Pay, so I know it should work. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
