Sorry if this has been asked before and I missed it in my search

 

I tried connecting my ROAM SL to charge through my PC computer USB4 port.

I am getting the “not charging properly” notification

I understand that USB4 supports well over the specified 10W

 

Does the ROAM SL support USB Power Delivery (USB4 PD)?

 

Thanks to anyone who has tried and had success?

USB4 should provide a minimum of 7.5W, what is your specific device providing?

7.5W should be enough for a Roam: https://support.sonos.com/en-us/article/power-adapter-requirements-for-charging-sonos-roam#

I don’t have a usb-multimeter to check the port.

But I agree, by usb4 specification it should provide a minimum 7.5W.  So I’m surprised I’m getting the insufficient power warning.

charges my iphone no problem, but that doesn’t tell me the wattage
