Turbopower charging is not

I have just bought a USB C to USB C lead to charge my Motorola phone faster, from my turbopower equipped laptop - it does say "turbopower connected"
And it does not speed up charging at all
Any advice ?
If I was half as smart as I think I am - I'd be twice as smart as I REALLY am.

I presume you will only get Turbo power charging from a Wall outlet charger0

Suspect it may be down to the state of the phone battery, I've got the same situation with a Moto G7 Power that I've replaced the battery on. Doesn't matter what charger I use (even the one that says "TurboPower" when connected, it still takes a good while to charge.0

No - some laptops provide a turbo power USB C port as well

its a brand new Anker cable - supposedly the correct one for the job

Snap - my Motorola is also a G7 Power with a replacement battery

What's the wattage output of the current wall wart you're using to charge your phone?
How fast did you expect the laptop to charge your phone?0 -
I have a G7 power, with turbo power on it does about 1% a minute.Just plugged into the PC it takes 4 or 5 hours from 50% to 95%.I don't like turbopower, it can't do the battery much good considering how warm it gets.I want to go back to The Olden Days, when every single thing that I can think of was better.....
(except air quality and Medical Science)
