Hi,

To be assured of enough power on the go, I've got the following output on a new powerbank:

USB Type C: 5,9,12 V DC resp. 3,000mA, 2,000mA, 1,500mA

USB Type A: same

USB Type A: 5 V DC 3,000mA


Can you explain how do I connect the powerbank to my Mac Book Air (2014)

The MacBookAir has 1 45W Magsafe power input, 2 USB 3.0 ports and 1 hunderbolt input.


Thanks, Hubert.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.13

Hello,


My MacBookAir from 2014 has the following slots: See screenshot.




I bought an external battery to power my MBA when on the road. Specifications: see screenshot.



My questions is how do I connect the external battery so the internal battery of the MBA will be loaded? So I don't use the mains.


Sounds this more informed?


Thanks,

Hubert.
