Can I use type-c to charge it? null

Absolutely not! This thing uses a 200W charger and USB-C-PD specification only allows for 100W max currently. So if you plug something into the USB-C port, it completely ignores it. If you plug a barrel type charger that's under-rated, it will say that the charging current is too low and stops charging. Yes, I've tried both to confirm. Doesn't even do a trickle charge, which is shame.
