has anyone managed to power their macbook pro through an external monitor?
I'm tying to get rid of the excess cables on my WFH setup, and the monitor I have HP EliteDisplay E243d 23.8", it seems you can power a laptop from it as it has this 1 USB Type-C™ (Alternative mode DisplayPort™ 1.2, power delivery up to 65 W); I tried it when I first got it, but nothing happened, was wondering whether I need to try a new cable, or if my 16in macbook pro requires more power than it provides, or if I've just been an idiot and not hit the correct input.
Any thoughts let me know
