Steam Deck charging standards and a reliable AC adapter
Charging Specifications of Steam Deck
The charging specifications of the Steam Deck main unit are as follows.
| item | details |
|---|---|
| Charging Standards | USB Power Delivery |
| Charging Power | 45W |
| Port | USB type-C |
It is best to use the original AC adapter that comes with the Steam Deck itself, but since the original AC adapter is not sold separately (it is included with the original docking station), using a third-party product that meets the specifications is a cost-effective alternative.
USB Power Delivery (PD) & AC Adapter with 45W output
Put together an AC adapter that supports USB Power Delivery (PD) and an output of 45W or more.
In addition to the items picked up this time, inexpensive AC adapters are also available from Chinese manufacturers, but since they use a relatively high power of 45W, it is best to use products from well-known manufacturers, even if they are expensive, considering the risk of failure.
