Please Note:

The USB Type C source connected must support Power Delivery, the charging power depends on the PD power supply connected (up to 100W).
Each laptop docking station needs a certain wattage for its operation. Therefore, the current delivered to the laptop may be lower than the current indicated on the USB-C charger.
I.e. if the internal power consumption of a laptop docking station is 15W and a 100W power supply is connected, the docking station delivers 85W to the laptop.
