Newbie seeking alternative charging advice on Zenbook UX325EA please

Hello everyone, Im a newbie and need advice on charging/chargers/usbc plugs and cables quite urgently.

My son has a Zenbook UX325EA with the charging cable provided, usbc to power supply (that plugs into the mains socket).  I've bought him a 6000A, car jump starter which has a USB-C in/out port capable of 65W.

1. Can he use this to charge his Zenbook with if necessary, without damaging it? He'd need a USBC to USBC cable to connect the Zen to the 65W port in the jump starter, but for max speed, should I get a 65W cable too? 

2.  Can I also get a 65W or higher USB multi port plug adapter (with various ports in it) so that, if he doesn't have the jump starter or his Zenbook cable, he can instead use the multi port plug adaptor for full 65W charging from the mains socket and the other ports to be used with his other devices?  I understand that if he plugs another device into the adaptor at same time, the charging power and speed to the Zenbook would be reduced.

I'm basically trying to get him a 65W or higher multi port plug that he can charge his Zen book with at full 65W AND one which he can also plug the 65W capable jump starter into to recharge that .. not at the same time though!

If so, any recommendations please for plug adaptor and cables.  And thanks for reading.  Advice will be greatly received as this is kinda vague to me.

Many thanks ....Celine.
