I bought this so that I could have an extra charger for my switch. The regular wall plugs for phones don’t work as well as the original charger and this charger. This charger works just fine and can revive my switch when it’s dead unlike the phone plugs. It takes a little while to charge but I’d say it is the same amount of time as the regular switch charger. It doesn’t get hot and my switch had no problems taking it. I trust this as a charger and I would recommend this to a friend.
