Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ YOUSHARES Interchangable Power Charging Adapter: Ultimate AC Power Supply Cord & Adapter for Nintendo WiiU Gamepad by Arnold Carrigan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Funny poor quality control on packaging, cable seems solid

My cable arrived in packaging that said 'For Microphone Windscreen' which caused some confusion but as you can see in the picture can, it's that really included the cable. the item I ordered. The cable itself seems to be of sufficient quality. It's a bit of a concern that the Wii U gamepad expects an input voltage of 4.75V while USB expects 5V, which is 5.3% over spec; However, most devices are designed for a deviation of 5%, so in practice this is unlikely to be a problem. It is also very unlikely that the device is actually using 4.75V internally as this is well above the standard 3.7-4.2V range for Li-Ion batteries so it is in all likelihood already stepping down internally .

Pros
  • Cable and Adapter
Cons
  • Only available in Black
