    Valid. In fact the (thunderbolt) power port will self-destruct over a year or two without a firmware update (overheats), Lenovo used to replace 'em for free, not sure what the situation is now. I was lucky and got mine new in box (but at the second hand price) after the bios update was available, but it’s something you should look out for when buying second hand. FWIW there’s also a power port in the dock connector.

      I’m gonna be real, I really dislike the t580. The keyboard is just awful. Again, my sister had 2 of them. One was my dad’s old laptop and the other one is the replacement. The keyboard is so meh. Same with the track pad. The cooling solution is really nice. I like the captive screws. But using it is awful. I actually prefer the HP pavilion x360 that I essentially rebuilt twice over the t580.
