I have one connected to my Television, but it’s a hassle for games to unhook for games I want to play on the monitor for better latency like rhythm games.
I had heard of some third party ones potentially damaging switches back in the day, and wondered if they have improved since then.
I would check out the Genki Covert Dock. It is a game changer when bringing the switch outside the house, but absolutely could be plugged in most of the time at home.
Its a wonderful grab and go dock, and they extensively tested switch compatibility - have had zero issues with mine.
Well this looks super cool
Another vouch for this. I kickstarted it and have been super happy with it.
@NightOwl This is the one.
Very compact which is perfect for travel or not taking up space on my desk.
Link for those who are interested.
Came here to say this! It’s great as a second unit and is always in my backpack or luggage when traveling
30W GaN sounds like a sure way to brick your switch when powered off.
Well it’s a good thing the max draw of a switch is 18W, and this device has a specific 9V power profile for the switch. The 30W is there to support devices with a faster power delivery spec (such as the Steam Deck).
