Perfect for Car Trips
My fiance and myself are huge gamers and the Nintendo Switch is by far my current favorite console. This accessory makes it easy to take my switch with us on trips as we travel out of state typically at least once a month. The cord itself is Nintendo-authentic and has already worked flawlessly for 3 trips so far. The cord is perfect length so whether you are sitting passenger seat or in the back seats, this cord should be perfectly sufficient for any car with an AC adapter.

Fantastic value
I was pleasantly surprised to find an official vehicle charger at such a reasonable price. Seems durable and the cord length is more than sufficient. Charges well.
