Has anyone used the Thinkad Thunderbolt 3 Dock 135W with a Lenovo Legion Y730? I ordered this along with the dock (has a Thunderbolt 3 port). My problem: The dock works (external monitor, and peripherals) but the notebook doesn't charge? Shouldn't that also be charged via the dock?

Question

Accepted Answer

Hello, the reason for this is that the notebook is not charged via a USB-C power supply unit but via a separate one with a rectangular connection. The power supply that comes with the docking does not provide enough power, only 135W. The Y730 15 inch comes with a 135W and the 17 inch even with a 180W. 
You will be able to use the docking simply without charging your notebook. This was not intended in the design of the notebook.
