The cable you use should be able to accommodate 65 watts. I use a 240-watt cable. It and the charger are a beast!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Most usb-c type cables should be perfectly fine with getting 65 Watts but I would definitely look for one of the bio or high voltage cables that anker sells. I mostly said I just so you know you're getting a cable that is guaranteed to work perfectly fine with this but then at the same time they also let you know on the packaging what the cables maximum pass through is. I use some of their bio cables that can support all the way up to 120watts and they work just fine but then they do have some of their more budget friendly cables that run anywhere between 15 to $25 that also still let you get that 65 Watts.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.To achieve the 65W output from the USB-C port of the [Anker PowerPort III 65W 3-Port Wall Charger], you do not necessarily need a special cord. However, it is recommended to use a high-quality USB-C cable that supports Power Delivery. For optimal charging performance and to ensure you get the full 65W output, using a USB-C cable that is designed to support at least 65W Power Delivery would be ideal. If you're unsure whether your cable supports this, check its specifications or use an Anker cable included with the device, if available.
