Nintendo Switch 45W fast charger with 5ft cable
Product description
This compact 45W USB-C charger delivers faster charging for Switch consoles and compatible handheld docks, letting you keep playing while replenishing battery more quickly. It is aimed at users who want a portable replacement or spare power supply that supports TV mode and extended play with a 1.5 m cable.
Key Points
The adapter supports higher output levels than many standard Switch chargers, which according to the manufacturer can recharge a console from 0% to 50% in around an hour. It includes an extra-long 5 ft / 1.5 m USB-C cable, so you have more flexibility on the sofa or at a travel stop. Safety features are built in, with multi-guard protections and a cooling system to monitor temperature and reduce the risk of overheating. ⚡
Compatibility covers the Switch family, including Switch OLED and Switch Lite, plus Switch docks and Steam Deck docks, and it can also charge a Pro Controller. The unit is lightweight and portable, designed for simple plug-and-play use when travelling or charging away from the original manufacturer supply. 🔌
Benefits
Using a higher-wattage adapter can enable TV mode on a dock that otherwise struggles with low power, allowing a fuller home-console experience while connected to a display. The longer cable reduces the need to sit close to the wall outlet and makes it easier to play while charging. The built-in protections provide reassurance when charging unattended, according to the product description. Note that actual charge times may vary with console condition and usage while charging. 🎮
