minus-squareMunkisquisher@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 年前You’d want more than one cell. You’d be pulling 23amps from a 4.2v 18650 to give the same 100w at 20v power as you get from a top usbpd power supply. There are 18650s that do 30 amps for short bursts, but it would get as hot as the iron and be empty in 5 min
