Nintendo Switch AC Adapter

Product Information

It's an excellent travel companion - all you need is a spare HDMI and you're casting your console to any hotel TV or portable monitor, for example.We were a little disappointed to find that the 30W charging output can't quite compete with more generalised (and cheaper) adapters on the market, but those devices can't cast all your favorite games to your TV. The battery life will depend on the games you play. For instance, the battery will last approximately 5.5 hours for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Users can easily expand storage space using microSDHC or microSDXC cards up to 2TB (sold separately). GB of internal storage, a portion of which is reserved for use by the system. Users can easily expand storage space using microSDHC or microSDXC cards up to 2TB (sold separately). Unfortunately, that design is also inflexible, not forward-thinking, and ignores all non-Nintendo USB-C devices. Knowing which other devices it might charge involves trial and error testing. Whereas any other USB-C charger can figure out by looking at its power output specifications. It has two violations of USB-C specifications in its power profile. First, the 5V should support up to 3A current. Instead, it only supports up to 1.5A. That works for the Pro Controller, but it isn’t enough to charge a USB-C phone even at a “normal” rate. Second, it skips the 9V profile that should be in place between 5V and 15V. Smaller devices that don’t support 15V won’t charge at all, and 9V is needed to achieve fast charging with most phones.

Power consumption varies depending on software and usage conditions. Values have been rounded off to the nearest full value. There also may be some statistical variations on the energy consumption values displayed. The values could also change depending on the usage environment and conditions. The battery life will depend on the games you play. For instance, the battery will last approximately 4 hours for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. But if none of our steps have worked, then it may be the console itself that's at fault, which is where Nintendo's official repairs service can help you solve the problem. Only try this if you've exhausted the other solutions presented in our guide. You will need to send your Switch off to Nintendo for the repair, which will leave you without the console for a period of time. If you manage to repair your console, there's a chance you won't lose any data. If you have Nintendo Switch Online, many (but not all) of your saves will be stored in the cloud. Any captures that you had saved to your internal storage (not microSD card) won't be saved.Thanks to the Switch's adoption of USB-C, the console can theoretically be charged up by a wider range of products. Such devices may not be best equipped to efficiently charge the Switch handheld as a result. Or worse still, fail to charge the console at all. After 12 or so seconds have passed, let go of the Power button, then press it one more time. This should reboot the Switch and turn the console on. If your console has turned on, try connecting the charger's USB-C port to the handheld again. Be wary of third-party chargers

To do so, make sure your Switch is connected to the internet. Then head into System Settings and find the 'System' submenu. In here, select the 'System Update' option and wait for the console to reboot. Reset the AC adapter

Minimum requirements to charge while playing: To have your Switch's battery recharge, (even if slowly), while you play a game, you need a power source that can supply at least 5 volts and 1.5 amps (or 7.5 watts) of power. More amps are better for faster battery charging.

Or one that isn't strictly compatible with the Nintendo Switch.

Make sure your Nintendo Switch is fully turned off. Then unplug the AC adapter from the mains and the USB-C connector from the console itself.
