Sporadic Charger disconnects

OS: CachyOS, but this might be a general issue
Product: Laptop 16

My charger has been sporadically disconnecting from my computer. At first I thought my cable might be the issue, but I just had the issue go away when I unplugged and replugged the cable.

So is my cable failing, or is something funny going on with my laptop?

If you have updted to the upower package to version 1.90.8 it has a known bug that it does that constant toggling. So i don’t think you have “hardware”/accessory issue, justa software bug.

I think you can try and downgrade the upower package with pacman to 1.90.7 which doesn’t have t he bug
