HP ProBook 450 G5.
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I would like to buy a USB-C adapter/charger that will work for my HP ProBook 450 G5. I'd like to leave my regular charger at the office and have a smaller, more portable USB-C charger that I can use when on the road.  

 

I "borrowed" a USB-C charger from a Chromebook at work -- it works great with my ProBook!   But I have to return it.  The USB-C chargers I have at home don't work.  How do I find out the minimum amps/volts/something for a USB adapter so I know what to buy?

Very simple solution, get its model/product and buy EXACTLY a same one.

 

Hope this makes sense.

Was hoping to find the "specs" required for a USB-C adapter to work with my ProBook.  The one I used from work was an OEM charger for an Acer Chromebook, but I can't find that exact adapter for sale anywhere unless I just go and purchase the identical Chromebook.
