On the Road? Charge up at Full Speed with Anker’s New PowerCore Portable Batteries
Apart from being a fun little console, the Nintendo Switch is demanding when it comes to power consumption. Sure, you can go ahead and get yourself a USB-C charger to top up your battery while on the go, but many of them take ages to fully juice up the console. Things get even worse if you’re playing and charging at the same time. So, in order to combat this misery, Anker has launched two new PowerCore batteries – the PowerCore 21000 PD and the PowerCore 13400 PD – and the company has been working with Nintendo for the past one year in order get these products absolutely prefect. Both of these batteries are capable of charging the Nintendo Switch from zero to hundred percent in just three hours.
