About this deal

As mentioned in the introduction, one of the biggest sources of consumer confusion around charging the Switch is that it does not take all the power a charger might support. Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable). That’s about as simple as I can try to get things — do know that the devil is in the details and there are lots of details, exceptions, and edge cases.

I’ve had a little more experience with the USB-C and USB-PD ecosystem, having already gone through a year and a half of accessory growing pains with owning the Google Nexus 6P and Pixel XL. Now consumers can use a common set of charging devices with the Switch that they may already have in their homes for their smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other devices. However, those of us with voltage/current meters have discovered that the Switch often limits the amount of current it accepts, and so in many cases, relying on the output markings of a charger has misled consumers into believing their charger supplies more power than it does. However, please understand that an inverter that plugs into the 12V "Cigarette" port can not pull enough current to power most power tools or anything that heats like a coffee maker, curling iron, hair dryer.Nintendo now features the USB Type-C (“USB-C”) connector on the Switch itself, the Switch dock, and in various accessories like the Pro Controller and Charging Grip. On the power/wattage limit of the Nintendo Switch, a compelling case for the Switch maxing out at 18 watts was set forth by AnandTech — the maximum output of the Switch Dock is stated to be 18 watts, so it would be reasonable that the Switch would not attempt to pull more than that, lest it causes an overcurrent situation while charging in the dock. It does support bluetooth keyboards; and it's not like the kernel is wanting for memory with 4GB of RAM, or whatever is left of it after all the spyware Android devices run whether I want them to or not.

The new Switch and Switch Lite both have improved power usage and draw compared to the original Switch. This fast charger features a 15-volt output, which is much faster than the standard 5-volt charger that comes with the Switch console . Also, any downloadable content (DLC) or codes that usually come with these items are likely to have been redeemed already and are not available for reuse. So even at its (theoretical) best, though adherence to USB standards ensures that chargers and devices won’t ruin each other, there’s a new consumer challenge of how to determine whether a particular charger will work optimally with a given device. Like my samsung chromebook plus charger, requirements don't say 9v 3A, my samsung charger pushes out 15V at 2A, and 9 or 5V at 3A.AC Adapter Power Supply Fast Travel Charging Kit for Nintendo Switch and Switch Lite Support TV Mode Product Details Support TV Mode - This nintendo switch charger supports handheld mode, also works for nintendo switch docking and playing on a TV. But as the power demands over USB rise with laptops and now game consoles adopting it for power, so goes the range of power/current consumption possibilities. Fast Charging - The premium attached extra long 5 Feet USB-C Integrated cable fit all type-C device.

With this fast charger, you can power up your gaming console much faster, so you can get back to gaming in no time. I also have a separate addendum article listing the various chargers I’ve measured/tested to reach my conclusions.However, given the past several years of experience with smartphones, consumers have generally come to understand that a charger’s listed current determines “how fast it is at charging. Charging and device manufacturers are still struggling to get comfortable with specifications and get their implementations right — from bad cables, to bad chargers, to improperly combining proprietary charging protocols with USB-C/PD, to safe chargers marred by poor user experience and design. That’s only “not a USB-C issue” if you fail to understand the central complaint about USB-C - that ports that support, say, video output (or input) are visually identical to ports that do not, and cables that can carry video are indistinguishable from those which only support USB 2, or those which only support charging at 15 W, or those that support charging at 100 W or or or. I don't mean to be rude, but I'm kind of surprised that nobody has said that the switch only takes 5 volts and 2. Kind of like you can charge an iphone with their 1 amp iphone charger but it also charges faster with the ipads 2.
