Any USB-C / Smart Charger / PD experts out there?
Trying to find out how much more $$ it would have cost Staresso to put a smart PD style charger receiver inside their new Discovery II USB-C charging cordless coffee grinder. It appears to have a pretty basic 5V /1A charger, and it does not work with a 35W USB-C charging brick I have, but does work with a Qualcomm Q 18W charger I have.
Does it need a smarter battery too to make rapid charging / PD chargers work?
