My Anker charger has stopped working after only 2 uses, and the only other USB-C charger I have in the house is a 20W iPhone charger. Is it possible and safe to trickle-charge the laptop with a low power charger whilst it is powered off and not in use?

Edit to add it’s only a temporary solution until my new charger arrives tomorrow.

    Interestingly, I occasionally use my steam deck 45w charger for my framework. From totally dead, it won’t recharge or let me boot when plugged into the front left port, but will from the front right port.

    Once it’s powered on, either one will charge it.
