Your problem isn't the cable, it's the charger. A Dell requires a minimum of 45w, 65w or 90w input to charge without a warning, depending on model. Using a charger with a much lower wattage won't...

If USB-C thunderbolt cable is the highest data transfer cable and delivers power, does it also mean it's backwards compatible and safe to use for simple USB-C charging and can handle USB 2.0 etc? TIA
