My friend have a reasonably old Thinkpad laptop, she ran out of battery during a very important meeting, and I was able to help her by plugging my powerbank
Same. I haven’t bought a charger to/from work in years. I just have a very old spare at home that I’ve been using for my work laptops, and leave the original at the office.
I also seldom carry a charger, since most places I go have a USBC charger for me anyway.
