PSA: if you try to use your Nintendo Switch charger with another Type C device and it cuts off, it's your *device's* fault. Pulling >1.5A.

Devices are not supposed to draw more than what the charger advertises. Type A devices are not supposed to draw >1.5A.

Sadly many devices just draw more more current until V droops, because that works with "any" charger incl. proprietary Apple crap

The problem is that works with "any" charger except paranoid ones with a hard cutoff like Nintendo's.

That approach is actually *valid* up to 1.5A per USB Battery Charging spec, but above 1.5A it's not legal.
