Looking at the charging preferences of the Steam Deck, which from my research wants 45W at 15v/3A, it looks like the larger model should work just fine. And with it being $15 USD / $18 CAD this could be an incredible bargain.

It’s so new though I can’t find any info on it being used with a Steam Deck. I’ll definitely be grabbing one to try, as it would be perfect for my USB hub that sits by the TV.

    I would be wary of such cheap USB-PD chargers. It is not uncommon for them to fail in ways that kill devices (I work for the tech department of a school district and we unfortunately have a strict OEM-only policy around chromebook chargers due to a wave of these killing chromebooks)

      Let’s be honest, the reason for that policy is so that if a Chromebook does fail you can go back to the manufacturer for warranty coverage.

      I would trust an Anker charger just as much as an OEM charger.

        Obviously anker would probably be fine, I am talking about these no-name boxes from unpronounceable amazon sellers
