I am going to do some extended traveling and looking to reduce carrying weight as much as possible. Has anyone used the 30W USBC charger for the 13.3 inch MBP? Mine is the 2016 2GHz i5 model.

Thanks!
 
I charged my 2018 15" MBP with a Anker 30W USB C charger. While using the MBP the 30W slowed the drain. Then when I went to bed the charger charged the MBP while I slept and was at 100% in the morning.

So it can be done if you can live with the unit draining while you use it, and have long times when you do not use the system.
 
Perfect :) ^^^^^^

I only use the computer for light surfing and planning for sightseeing in the morning and more of the same and Netflix at night. Leave charge till morning. Sounds like it will work just fine - THANKS!
