Those USB-C to laptop power adapters are awesome.
However, they can be kinda dumb. The available charge current is communicated to the laptop with a resistor, and the adapter does not change this value based on what your USB adapter can provide.
My adapter was just a tiny bit underpowered and would cut out if I tried to run a heavy CPU load while the battery was charging. I think this eventually killed the cheap adapter cable.
Just buy two

Yeah I fried a RAVPower USB-C PD supply with one of those.
