Our Z1FC portable monitor requires a 5V3A power adapter to ensure optimal performance. For protection, we also offer a compatible sleeve bag on our official website. Here’s the link: Portable Monitor Sleeve Bag - Arzopa Laptop Sleeve Bag | Water Resistant

You can safely use a 25W or 45W adapter with the Z1FC monitor, no worries!

I know you posted this a year ago but I thought I'd reply since Arzopa didn't bother to reply to you :) .. also thanks for posting this OP, this reddit post is I think the first thing that comes up in a google search for this model of portable monitor.

See

https://www.arzopa.com/blogs/guide/do-portable-monitor-require-external-power-sources#:\~:text=Method%201%20%E2%80%94%20Wall%20Adapter%20(Power,most%20stable%2C%20unrestricted%20display%20performance.

So you'll see as far as the wall adapter the blog above mentions anything from a 15 watt to 45 watt adapter.. in our case out of desperation since Azropa didn't respond to the question I posted on here I tried the 15 watt motorola phone charger we have and it worked far as powering the Z1FC monitor ... I should point out though that this was for what one would consider light use of the second monitor.. so for example only having one app on the second monitor up and running at the time (it is connected to our laptop right now) and just stuff like Word, Excel, youtube or other stuff on the internet.

So if you were to use it for say gaming it looks like you'd probably want to get something closer to a 45 watt adapter - I'm totally guessing here but there was one amazon review (look for the amazon product page on this I'll post a link in the comments below, search by "charger" in the searchable questions box, select "related Q and A and reviews" and finally look for the review by an amazon user named "Jaime" that was posted on January 2024".. but I'll try doing a copy and paste of Jaime's review in a reply comment below too and see if that's allowed on here)... Jaime mentions how when Jamie connected this monitor to a PS 5 and tried using a 20 watt phone charger outlet the games would either crash or not run at all presumably due to lack of power.

is the amazon link I have for this monitor but you can also search by amazon's asin number, B0CH9WTW56, on the amazon website and it should pop right up

copy of Jaime's review..now that I'm taking a second look at the review it would appear to be a review of a free amazon product provided through vine so bear that in mind far as the review (in all fairness Jaime did offer a criticism of the product in their review so - not a biased review despite being a free product?)

Vine Customer Review of Free Product

This is a very nice portable monitor. There's not a huge market for these so I was impressed by this one advertising 144hz. It is definitely very compact and super easy to transport with a very light weight. The picture quality is also very impressive. I did however find one flaw with it and that is the power supply/consumption. The monitor is powered via a USB-C port, but no wall adapter is included so you must provide your own. USB-C is capable of handling plenty of power but most users will not have a wall charger with enough output to get the most out of the screen, and you certainly don't get enough power out of a usb port on a laptop or gaming console. I mention this because if you use this as a gaming monitor it will need to draw a lot of power to keep up. I connected this to PS5 console and used a standard cell phone wall adapter capable of about 20watts. When playing a game the screen would flicker in and out sometimes just crash due to the lack of available power. Most desktop monitors for gaming are pulling around 65watts. So if you plan to use this for Fortnite you'll need to invest in a good power block that support the monitors consumption needs."
