Hardware Wall charger for Switch?

[Yil]

Pixel chargers work great with it. 6p chargers don't have PD, where the pixel chargers, and most new type c chargers (with a form of quick charging) will have it.

Quick charge is a seperate thing Which requires Qualcomm or other controller that support The 9V/2A specification.

In that case some 60 watt charger should Do. 45w don't support 15V.

Seems a bit overkill. There are 15V/2A (or around there) USB-PD chargers. They're not much cheaper than the official charger though, so no point.

Voltage has to match and both need to be The same standard. I hand heard of one brand with 39w charger though.

Any USB-PD charger will work, the Switch accepts 9V just fine.

Edit: It's a phone, But besides that 15V is pretty uncommon.

I am pretty sure 9V chargers support 5V/2A as it is Also designed to handle tablets, Which is not part of The pd standard. In fact 9V/2A is part of Qualcomm's quick charge, Which is both independently developed and incompetible with USB-PD

Yes, they do.
But when it comes to USB-PD devices, unless they're communicating with an USB-PD charger, they will be stuck at 5V.

If you're looking for a quality charger that will last a long time, I suggest getting one from Apple. It's much more expensive, but they've got all sorts of options for how much wattage you want. If you want the highest-end everything it's about $110 USD (Idk how much that is in your country, sorry). That would include a 87W charging brick and a 2 meter cable. The nice thing is that it'll last a long time.

Thanks guys. I got the Google Pixel charger. 100% Worth it. Got a USB C to C Amazon Basics cable and is great too.

Oh, and if somebody knows: Is it safe to connect a Surge Protector to a Power Strip?

damn i'm jealous, not much .. because i own a 6p.
maybe i will get the pixel 2 or pixel 3.
i love google phones, and the 6p is the first i owned.

i mainly love them for root/ rom options.
my switch battery percentage is sometimes really weird, even with the official charger.
but i would not worry too much about it.

Apple chargers are pretty notorious for fraying wires. And i still don't trust their Type-C chargers to not be a teensy bit proprietary.

Hi guys, so i need a wall charger for my Switch cause the original Adapter is plugged into the dock.

Because of my country i need one that is on amazon, other pages are kinda hard specially because shipping, it takes forever.

Anyway, i want it mostly for my travels, i just ordered a Power bank, now i need a good wall charger.

I have seen a couple that i like but i want to hear personal experience so i can confirm that they work.

Give me a hand guys, i would really appreciate it.

Can't you just use your Switch wall charger?

 

[flame1234]

Thanks guys, but i would love if you just dont link some random adapter. I would like to know if you use them and if they work. For example in those pages some people said they are good but others said that it didnt work.

Wow, user blocked. AMZN says 4 star review which means it's likely to but not guaranteed to work.

Why is this thread even still active? All answers are in here already, although people keep posting false information. I play BotW on my switch with the USB C cable that came with a pro controller, and a regular iPAD charger (5v 2.1A). The thing charges while I play. end of story.

But your ipad charger does not support 18w from Quick charge nor PD which powers the switch dock.

Buy a Type-C cable and stick it into your PC. Even better if you stick it into a Mac.

What I'm wandering is someone going to make a wireless charger so we can use our Switch with its stand out without the need of it going flat on us all. Man, someone @Nintendo needs shooting for putting the USB connector under the stand, its driving me mad!

Actually the Switch charges the mac if you use it like that. There was a post on Twitter a month or two ago showing that. If I can find it I'll link it.

EDIT: found it
