[QUOTE="EnterpriseFreak, post: 10170803, member: 567996"] Hi there! The most probable cause as to why you're getting the wrong voltage is that the chargers you're using do not support outputting 12v. The thing about USB-PD negociation is that it's not a give me <x> volt or give me nothing kind of situation, rather it's a give <x> volt at most or less situation. When you connect a PD-compliant charger to a device that supports receiving power via USB-C the devices will negotiate what voltage to supply. If the requested max. safe voltage cannot be supplied by the charger it'll instead provide a lower voltage. (5v in case of the Switch charger since it can only do 5v and 15v, 9v for the other chargers you used.) You have to get a charger that's able to output current at a voltage of 12v, additionally it should at least be able to sustain a load of 3 amps or more. I myself got a relatively cheap no name 65W charger from a local store that supports the whole range from 5v to 20v. By the way, never try to use generic phone chargers for something like this. There's a lot that could go wrong there. Best case it'll simply refuse to work, worst cause you'll blow a fuse or damage something. The wires inside the cables bundled with most phone chargers might not even be able to safely handle 3 amps depending on how thick they are. [/QUOTE]
