Potential Super Cheap Charger - Ikea SJOSS

www.phonearena.com IKEA just made all fast chargers look way overpriced

IKEA's new SJOSS chargers offer all the latest fast charging protocols at a price, much lower than the competition...

Looking at the charging preferences of the Steam Deck, which from my research wants 45W at 15v/3A, it looks like the larger model should work just fine. And with it being $15 USD / $18 CAD this could be an incredible bargain.

It's so new though I can't find any info on it being used with a Steam Deck. I'll definitely be grabbing one to try, as it would be perfect for my USB hub that sits by the TV.

Ill be honest. When I saw the link I hovered over to see how old your account was. Its a no go for me though as that site is noscript unfriendly.
- You don't have to follow that link, it just has a few more technical details than the official Ikea site. That said I'm not a shill, just a cheapskate :P
  I already have a smaller travel USB-C charger for my deck which is working great, but I've wanted to have a few extra around in places where I dock but haven't been able to justify the price.
  People are right that you can get similar priced chargers on Amazon, but they are random Chinese brands and while I'm sure Ikea's is a rebrand itself, I would hope a large company like them would have ensured it was decent quality and won't burn down the houses they furnish with particle board :P
  
  Sorry. Was not suggesting you were a shill as much as that the title made me suspicious enough to check the account age and then the last part was more a gripe on consumer websites in general. You would think things trying to sell you things would want to maximize the people who could see it.
- The site works fine with javascript blocked.
  Regardless, IKEA is known for putting out quality but inexpensive electronics. Their rechargeable batteries and smart home products are great examples.
  
  not for me with allowing the parent site and the cdn
