I’ve bought a total of 3 300w chargers and no matter what outlet I plug it into, it burns itself out in the same exact place everytime. Is it an electrical problem in my home or is it a laptop issue?

It never does this after hours of play, it only happens when I’ve just plugged it in.

I always unplug it from wall when not in use.

What could it be? Is it my laptop? Or is it the bricks? The bricks themselves two were official LENOVO unopened new and one was a Chinese aftermarket.

Buy a more reasonable charger, 45W is enough for most people but if your computer is old or a workstation you may want a 65-90W charger.

Have you taken measurements of your house recently?
You might find that the inside is impossibly larger than the outside...

Probably the laptop. Try disconnecting the battery to save on power draw and see how the laptop performs

You are buying the correct charger right? Just because the tip fits doesnt matter you need the exact V and amps because if the amps are too low your charger gets too hot and dies

It looks like the high voltage side is popping.

Check polarity and voltage of wall outlet maybe?
Could be voltage on ground or they tie neutral and ground internally and its bridging a shorting device somewhere else in line with your outlets.

Laptop chargers are 300W now?

Also i would check the voltage in your sockets of this room, especially against ground. Funny things happen when there's a zero shift, which happens when the rail bridging the fuses in the fuse box is wonky.
I have no idea how that's called in english, but i think you get the concept.
