Drivers should avoid using their car's built-in USB ports to charge laptops, as these ports are typically designed for lower-power devices like phones and may not provide sufficient wattage. Laptops, especially modern ones like the M5 MacBook Air or MacBook Pro, require significantly higher power (40W to 96W or more) than standard car USB ports can deliver. Instead, users should opt for a 12V USB-C PD charger that plugs into the car's accessory outlet or a power inverter that provides a standard AC outlet, ensuring the chosen solution matches the laptop's wattage requirements.
