The concept of the new Nintendo Switch, the seventh stationary console from the Japanese manufacturer, blurs the boundaries between console and handheld. Its battery life is 3.5 to 7 hours - depending on which application is running. To charge the power source and, above all, to ensure a permanent power supply in console mode, you need a suitable power supply. As a replacement or additional power supply for the Switch, Nintendo recommends its original power supply. It is a wide-range power supply (100 to 240 V) that can deliver 5 V at 1.5 A (current) as well as 15 V at 2.6 A (power delivery). This means that it can be used worldwide.
The Switch already comes with an official power supply, but it can also be pre-ordered as a spare part. This licensed Nintendo Switch power supply is identical to the one included in the delivery. It is made of black, matte plastic and has a USB-C plug. This means that it is theoretically able to charge common smartphones or tablets, provided the voltage is right. Conversely, this means for the Switch buyer that other chargers with a USB-C plug like the Snakebyte Nintendo Switch USB Charge:Cable can also be connected. However, you can play it safely with the official Nintendo product. However, this is three or even up to six times more expensive than competing products.
In addition to the console screen and docking station, the separately available Joy-Con charging holder, the controller unit for the two Joy-Cons in console mode, also has a USB-C port. This means that the batteries of both controllers, which promise a playing time of more than 20 hours, can be charged while playing in console mode. However, the Joy-Con Grip included with the Switch does not have this port for unknown reasons. This means that the player incurs additional costs for the accessory if they want to charge the controllers while playing.
