I had to do this once, using the HDMI for display and the USB-C for power, using a 20 W power adapter. That’s what I had for the USB-C cable, so I don’t know about lower wattages.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The display requires 6Watts on average with 9.6Watts max. If your laptop cannot output sufficient power, you can also try connecting to a wall adapter or another device which can provide the required power. We do have a wall adapter available for sale to obtain power from a wall socket: Adapter plug: https://www.viewsonic.com/parts/a-00010454.html Adapter: https://www.viewsonic.com/parts/a-00010541.html
