Yes, but there are smaller GaN chargers out there if you care about saving space.

FW has said the laptops are designed to work on any usb charger in case of an emergency so theoretically you can even use an old 5w iPhone charger. That would be a terrible idea as it would take way too long to charge, but the option is there
