Dock Power Supply Failure and Replacement
Greetings, the overly-large wall wart (aka power supply) for my dock died in under a week. The first day I plugged it in no problem, second day I plugged in the deck and had no video out. After some diagnostics I discovered the power supply was the problem. I don't see a reason to go through the effort to ask for a replacement so here are what *I* recommend for those who are looking for a dock (and Steam Deck) replacement power supply:

USB C GaN Charger 30W, Anker 511 Charger (Nano 3), PIQ 3.0 Foldable PPS Fast Charger for iPhone 15/15 Pro/14/14 Pro Max/13, Galaxy, iPad - less than $20, super tiny, and you can put ANY LENGTH CABLE ON IT (I prefer the 6' USB C to C cable for better comfort). This works a treat and comes in a variety of colors (if that matters to you).

Power output is sub-par. I don't quite remember whether the Deck's PSU is rated 45W or 65W, 30W of this model is less either way.

On a personal note, I grew a fan of UGreen's portfolio.

you need a power supply that should do as much or more watts than the original dock supply. 30W is definitely not enough.

You're probably right, but it does work really well. Post below if you have a better charger to recommend. Thanks!

I'm a happy user of a UGREEN Nexode 100W.
