Switch USB type C voltage?

[Gamerguy207]

I'm going to get a power bank for my switch because I play botw in the car or something but I've heard if you don't get one with high enough amps it won't charge because it uses to much power. So does anyone know how much amps it uses when running and how much it good to charge it???

the wall charger will tell you how many amps out you should get most newer USB devices like 2a out (my dtek50 wont charge at lower than 1.5)

I never actually watched this video but check this video by Digital Foundry, it may help.

You say voltage in the topic, but then say amps in the OP.

 

Anyway, considering the input to the Switch is either 5V/1.5A or 15V/2.6A and power banks aren't going to supply the latter, get something that can supply at least 5V/2A.
