USB PD Only #129

Why/User Benefit/User Problem

Have only USB PD. Saves space, weight. Why leave the AC? Modern USB PD chargers can go up to 100W. Are universal. I propose to abandon AC and leave only PD.

Description of the feature

Several major brands of USB C wall-chargers offer very small, lightweight, high quality chargers (I use them every day to charge my thinkpad) and up to 65W.

I second this. There is no advantage of having an AC charger because it will be anyway only for a system76. With the USB PD it is universal and can indeed go up to 100W.

That might not be enough for workstation class laptop... But for laptop classes which are fine with up to 100W it seems reasonable!
