and 12v at 2.5 a

Maybe? Entirely depends on if that charger supports outputting the required voltage and amperage. Check what's written on the back of the back or the specs sheet of the brick. For all we know you could be talking about like some ancient 30-pin iPhone charger from way back when.

If it supports outputting the required voltage for the console at at least 3a then yes. Only thing that *might* work with 2a or 1.5a (at 12v!!!) would be the final revision (RVO-CPU-10) of the Wii Mini which draws just above 12 Watts during game play.

this is better than the ZYPDH ?
That entirely depends on what you're trying to actually do. If its just playing on an unmodified console, a PDC004 will be just fine with it's limit of 3a at voltages below 20v (USB-PD does not officially support >3a on below 20V). If you'll want to play an overclocked Wii U you may want to use ZYPDH with a QC compliant charger because QC supports 5a (or maybe even 7a?) on voltages below 20v.

If the charger delivers enough power...then it should work. But I bought a 65w charger and am happy with it.
and the kind of power supply with multiple usb c and usb outpout that sit on your desk, do you know one that is good and that cost not to much and that can handle 100 w

what is the best cheap avalaible for cheap in one piece
Instead of printing a dongle like this (which is a good alternative), I would recommend to buy a USB c cable from aliexpress. Or solder in the USB c board directly and mount it with this piece from this reddit thread. Looks nice imho. And no cutting required.

    LOL! I'd lmao if they put a gay ride in the little arcade section they have in this walmart. It could be like the horses rides you put quarters in, except it would be like the ambiguously gay duo cartoon & you sit on top of the other guy thats in a "flying" position. LMAO!

    They passed a city ordinance last month. No smoking cannabis in public. Not even eating gummies. $300 fine and misdemeanor charge if caught. People can walk down the street smoking cigs and tossing the butts all over, but God forbit someone take a couple puffs of their medication.

    First off, it's recreationally legal here. Secondly, I have a prescription from my doctor and approved by the state. But still a fucking criminal.

    Like at bars. Cant sit outside even in the smoking section and take a few puffs. Yet I have to breath the cig smoke from 20 people chain smoking all night in every direction around me.

    Honestly I feel like Trump is going to crush Biden just because of the trial
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    They cite

    The look at how they treated me card is powerful within dumb voters
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    A Trump win is certainly a possibility. If he's reelected, 4 more years then no one has to worry about him being president ever again. I survived last time, I'll survive it if there's a next time. Don't know how anyone could vote for the guy, but I'm also not anyone else but me.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Honestly things were cheaper with Trump but that's tounge and cheek could be exactly the same outcome if he won reelection

    All of the fake "Christians" vote for him even though he's broken like 8 of the 10 commandments... that we know of. Maybe all 10. LOL
