I have heard there are issues with Switches getting bricked by using 3rd party cables to charge the device, and I was wondering if the same holds true for micro USB to micro USB C adaptors, specifically one's made by Anker.

Anker should be fine since it’s endorsed by Nintendo.

Does the spec say it can be used on the Switch? Those USBc cables must have the right amp rating/volt rating to work.

@SwitchForce it doesn't say, but I'll check if the amp rating is completable.

That would be a good thing to do homework on not all cables are created equal and buy cheap get get has a meaning here.
