    The powerbank worked with great with the Nintendo switch; however, after 16 months, the powerbank will no longer charge. I will have to see if Anker honors the 18-month manufacturer's warranty they advertise for the item.

    So 3rd party chargers don’t actually harm the console, for those wondering. I bought because it was sale. It’s a good but, charges the console or devices pretty well. However the BIG ISSUE is the recharge time. It took almost 2 DAYS to get it fully charged. So have a spare if necessary.

    You can get the same exact unbranded Anker powerbank for much cheaper, but I got it because it was on sale when I bought it and since it a Nintendo licensed, I don't have to worry about it bricking my switch.

    No Longer Charging!

    I purchased this PowerBank given that it is a licensed Nintendo Switch product. I had hoped that it would work well with Nintendo's propriety electronics. In that regard it did well. It powered my son's Switch through our two week trip to Europe. However, after only 3-4 full charges, the unit will no longer charge. I will exchange this item with the hope for a better result.

    Cool little gadget. But had to return because it wouldn’t charge. It’s a bit heavy but I guess that’s because it has 20100 mAh.
