**Thinkpad T460 USB-C conversion**
So I did convert my thinkpad T460 from the lenovo rectangular plug to USB-C.
The print may not be perfect in size but you should be able to work it out without difficulty ;)
**This conversion make your laptop loose the ability to charge on lower wattage charger than what you configured it to support ! (I'll explain)**
In addition to the print, you will need 2 things :
- a **USB-C PD board** like this one : https://www.ebay.com/itm/114517531316?var=414707197432&campid=5338591490&toolid=20012&customid=&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&ufes_redirect=true or similar (I found mine on aliexpress)
- a **resistor** of your choice that will define the wattage supported by the laptop (see the last picture, source for more info : https://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Power_Connector#230W_11.5_Amps
The thing is, **from now on you laptop will always want to draw the chosen wattage. **
For mine i chose 65W since I don't plane to have lower watta
