Yeah as it turns out this is some false advertising on this thing, it's a glorified USB-C charger. It doesn't put out enough power to actually keep the Switch charged while you're using it connected to the TV, so it simply doesn't work with the Dock. Best to return it and buy a Nintendo charger + adapter. It doesn't have to be the original one that came with your Switch if yours broke or got lost, but it does need to be the OEM because of the power required.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This AC adapter is meant to Only power/charge the handheld console itself, NOT the docking station with the console. You need the power brick from Nintendo for that
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Uh I bought one of these a while back, and it seemed to work fine for me. As further information, what version of the switch do you have a 1st gen, 2nd gen, or switch lite. You can tell between generations, by if the box it came in was red or not. I have a first gen switch, but the second gen has a different battery that may not be compatible with the charger
