Hi! So I want to buy a power bank to take my laptop on the go, but I don't know which ports can be used for charging. I know the USB type-C thunderbolt cannot be used for charging the laptop, but what about the other ports?

It specs
https://support.hp.com/za-en/document/ish_6400408-6400457-16
It has
(2) USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports; 5 Gbps signaling rate (one on the left side)
(1) USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port; 5 Gbps signaling rate (USB Power Delivery, DisplayPort™ 1.4, HP Sleep and Charge)
(1) HDMI 2.1 output port
(1) RJ-45 Ethernet port
(1) Headphone/microphone combo port
(1) AC Smart pin adapter plug
You can ONLY use normal AC Adapter. The USB-C port does NOT support USB Power Delivery therefore you can NOT use it to charge your machine.
Regards.
