Anyone use Baseus type a-c cable for their Switch? This cable is recommended for Huawei phone 2.1A output.. If i understand correctly (I'm not tech savvy) means this cable can only maintain the battery and cant charge while playing right?

Read back previous version of this thread:  any cable that end  with USB-A type connector can only deliver 5V 1.5-2A maximum (2A depending on capability of your powerbank/charger and if your Switch is capable of "handshaking" that power delivery request from that power source). Power delivery capability drops to the lowest denominator, the USB-A connector in this case, capable of 5V1.5-2A max. Source? Me. Did an extensive write-up on charging the Switch and the go, even my recommendation got picked up as the best possible powerbank and external third part charger outside of Nintendo, and that was posted in the previous version of this thread. Not gonna repeat that here again.

If there were any power consumption readout report I'd trust, it'll be from Anandtech, not that Digital Foundry article. http://www.anandtech.com/show/11181/a-look...r-consumption/2

Thanks! I actually did read the previous thread but I just can't fully understand it rclxub.gif
I went straight to buy Belkin cable at first but it was not available in radio shack/ all it & other shops that's why I bought Baseus instead
(tho I know type c-c with qb powerbank works but $$$)

Thanks for sharing the link. Will read to see if i can understand this one lol
