Hey there! It looks like you're dealing with a common confusion about charging standards. The ASUS Tuf Dash F15 uses USB-C, which supports higher currents—typically 20V and 5A is standard—but the manual advises using a 20V5A charger to protect the battery. Customer service mentioned it could harm the battery, which makes sense if you're not using the correct voltage. It seems they’re trying to guide safe usage rather than cover liabilities. Just double-check your charger specs before plugging in!

Using another USB-C adapter won’t harm the device, but it won’t work if the power source lacks sufficient strength, making it unnecessary to attempt.

It suggests the device won't function if it needs 20 volts to operate.

It requires a specific wattage and needs at least a certain level of power. I attempted to use a 65W charger with a more powerful laptop that has a 200W supply, which showed charging briefly before indicating insufficient power. Both 19.5v connectors are the same size.
