Dave Taylor here and you know if you're
0:12
a fan of the Nintendo switch then you
0:15
know that you not only need to be even
0:17
charging it when you're at home you also
0:19
need to be charging it in the car which
0:21
poses a little bit of a challenge
0:23
because it's a USBC device enter this
0:26
this is the Volvo charger go car charger
0:31
it's a 27 watt charger with as you can
0:35
see a regular USB and a USB C connection
0:39
which means that your switch can be
0:43
charging happily and you can charge your
0:47
phone all at the same time
0:48
crazy useful now a couple of quick specs
0:52
here is that the USBC is only 15 watts
0:56
so it's not a fast charge it's not an
0:58
aggressive charge I need to ain't enough
1:00
to work with your computer so if you're
1:02
thinking you can use this and charge up
1:04
your MacBook Pro or something it's not
1:06
gonna happen
1:07
and then the little guy is actually
1:09
pretty good this is a 12 watt USB a or
1:12
USB 3.0 charger and that is enough it's
1:15
actually a smart charger so it actually
1:17
has all the circuitry to maximize the
1:20
amount that you're getting for your
1:21
device so your phone will charge nice
1:23
and fast and your switch will charge
1:25
though it's not like I said a super huge
1:28
wattage charger but it's very nice it
1:31
has LED indicators to let you know
1:33
what's going on and it also can show you
1:35
it can give you a warning if there's
1:37
some issue with your car battery
1:39
now with any of these sort of devices be
1:42
careful that you don't leave it charging
1:44
plugged in with your device when your
1:46
car's off you have to make sure that you
1:49
don't have an active plug because you
1:51
could actually drain your car battery
1:53
nothing wrong with this circuit that's
1:55
just the way cars work so a good habit
1:58
if you are gonna leave things plugged in
2:00
and then go in for the night or
2:01
something is just pull this out of the
2:02
adapter easy enough or honestly why
2:06
would you leave this in your car so
2:07
you're gonna bring that in anyway so
2:08
problem solved now comes in black or
2:12
white this is white
2:13
really like it and vogue duo has some
2:15
other interesting combinations of
2:16
features with their car chargers so you
2:18
can check out those two now the only
2:21
criticism I have of this is that the way
2:23
they fit it into the actual adapter is I
2:27
found that I'd put it in and then it
2:29
would pop out just a little bit now for
2:31
my car it wasn't an issue and it worked
2:33
fine but for some cars that might be
2:35
something that makes it not have a good
2:37
connection so that's something to be
2:39
aware of but more likely than not this
2:41
will work just fine
2:42
so before I tell you the price and it's
2:45
pretty darn reasonable before I tell you
2:46
that price let me ask if you can click
2:48
on that subscribe button and if this is
2:50
useful and interesting either send me a
2:53

2:55

2:56
