Powerline+ are the best. I absolutely recommend them.
I usually get the USB 3.0 version, not entirely sure if it will make a difference for charging speeds.

Any USB-C cable should work, from a reputable brand. Bricking systems might be because of a faulty USB-C cable. Long story short, those faulty ones may give the device too much power -> bricking it. A good brand I know is Anker, a great US brand for powerbanks and cables, quality products. They offer USB-C cables (USB-C to USB-B (IIRC, not that technical myself) so you can plug it in a USB to Power Outlet adapter.
Edit: Found a good 1,8 metres one: https://www.amazon.de/Anker-PowerLine-lebenslange-Ladekabel-Inklusive-Rot/dp/B01LNAAEJ2/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1509878592&sr=8-4&keywords=USB-C+Anker The colour fits the Switch's logo coincidentially, haha.
If you're from Europe, try checking on Amazon. And if you're in the EU, you could try importing from Amazon. I did it myself, as the Netherlands got none, but we get free shipping at 29€, even though it's from Germany. :)
Turbo charging will be dependent on the power source, not the cable.
My favorite cables so far have been the anker powerline.

I personally vouch for Anker. They have a booth at one of my local malls. If you have multiple devices, get this car charger as well as this USB Type-C to USB 3.0 cable.
Here are some accessories I use and love.
Cables:
[6' long USB A to C](http://www.Anker.com/ PowerLine+ USB-C to USB 3.0 cable (6ft), High Durability, for USB Type-C Devices Including the new MacBook, ChromeBook Pixel, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Nokia N1 Tablet, OnePlus 2 and More https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LNAAEJ2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_SD1PybKFCP918)
[6' long USB C to C cable](http://www.Anker.com/ PowerLine+ C to C 2.0 cable (6ft), High Durability, for USB Type-C Devices Including the new MacBook, ChromeBook Pixel, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, OnePlus 2 and More https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LNA0XCU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_mG1Pyb59S4SK0)
Charger:
[5 port (1 C and 4 A) charger](http://www.Anker.com/ USB Type-C 40W 5-Port USB Wall Charger, PowerPort 5 for iPhone 7 / 6s / Plus, iPad Pro / Air 2 / mini, Galaxy S7 / S6 / Edge / Plus, Note 5 / 4, LG, Nexus, HTC and More https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0196JFWXK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_JH1PybWXH9ZMT)
That 5 port charger has been amazing. It is routinely use to charge a combination of my daughter's tablet, my Pixel, my wife's iPhone 7 Plus, my Xbox One Controller, mine and my wife's Kindles, and random devices from visitors with no problem. It has charged tablet and both phones simultaneously without any issue and at a very normal rate. I also use my OEM wall charger in the bedroom and the OEM Nexus 6P charger for travel.
Cases:
[Caseology Paralac](http://www.Google.com/ Pixel Case, Caseology [Parallax Series] Modern Slim Geometric Design [Black] [Textured Grip] for Google Pixel (2016) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M4HN5XV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_iL1Pyb58J56Y8). This is my work case ( I work 7 days on and 7 days off so I use it every other week) and feels and looks great but isn't as thin as I'd prefer. I generally prefer no case or just a dBrand skin.
This is my home/out and about case. [The Spigen Ultra Hybrid clear.](http://www.Spigen.com/ Ultra Hybrid Google Pixel Case with Air Cushion Technology and Hybrid Drop Protection for Google Pixel 2016 - Crystal Clear https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LX6CDHG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_6M1Pyb6KC420F)
Honorable mention if you want the thinnest case (note: This case won't fit over a dBrand skin.) [Niilken Nature series. ](http://www.Google.com/ Pixel Case, Nillkin Nature Series Clear Soft TPU Case Back Cover [Ultra Thin] [Slim Fit] for Google Pixel - Grey https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N8VGLYK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_DO1PybYSP36XD)
I also found these [Yootech glass screen protectors](http://www.Google.com/ Pixel Screen Protector [5.0"] [2-Pack] [Update Version],Yootech Google Pixel Tempered Glass Screen Protector for Google Pixel https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MPY1RPC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_oP1Pyb5Y22PEZ) to be more than good enough but they cover screen only and not full front (supposedly due to the subtle curvature of the fines edge).
Of course you can never go wrong with a nice dBrand skin for that finishing touch.
Hope this helps.
Anything made by anker: https://www.amazon.com/Anker-PowerLine-Durability-Including-ChromeBook/dp/B01LNAAEJ2/ref=pd_bxgy_107_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=P529XBQ79AGGGVHNTTRS
I have a 20176 Hyundai Sonata and PH-1. Tried using the AmazonBasics cable (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GGKYR2O/) and still doens't work. I've also tried this Anker cable (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LNAAEJ2/) and it also doesn't work!
Just order it from here: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B01LNAAEJ2/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=Anker%2Busb%2B3&qid=1574498811&sr=8-3&th=1&psc=1
I live in Sweden too and on Monday I should be getting it. Its 1.8m long but I ordered an active extension like this: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0179MXKU8/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=cablecreation&qid=1574499015&sprefix=CableC&sr=8-3
Not sure about 10ft,but I ordered two of these 6ft ones. https://www.amazon.com/Anker-PowerLine-Durability-Including-ChromeBook/dp/B01LNAAEJ2
I went with this one:
Anker PowerLine+ USB-C to USB 3.0 cable (6ft), High Durability, for USB Type-C Devices Including the new MacBook, ChromeBook Pixel, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Nokia N1 Tablet, OnePlus 2 and More https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LNAAEJ2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_poKSyb4D1SZ0A
Because red. Hope it works!
Do we know the length of the USB-C cable that comes with the pro controller?
I travel on trains a lot for 2+ hours and would like to get a longer cable (like 6ft-ish) so I can plug it in on the train and have plenty of slack so if I don't get a window seat, I'm not stretching a cable tightly across another passenger.
I was looking at this cable and this charger for my trips.
I've been using Anker cables for the last couple of months and they seem very sturdy and haven't frayed at all (yet). There's also usually a sale on them, so they're worth getting. USB-C example.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LNAAEJ2/
been using this anker for 2y and would definitely recommend it
Thanks man, the only problem with that link is the 1.8m is not available however I found this link
https://www.amazon.de/dp/B01LNAAEJ2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_LK40DbP9NAMR0
Which I will try in combination with this
www.amazon.de/dp/B00C7SA21U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_mN40Db044AD1B
And see how it goes :)
If you are looking for a USB-C to USB 3.0, then the Anker PowerLine+ is a good choice. Double braided 6ft cable ...

looks like that aukey product is unfortunately filled with fake BS reviews: http://fakespot.com/product/aukey-usb-c-to-usb-a-cable-with-usb-30-durable-nylon-5-pack-33ft366ft11ft1-for-apple-macbook-12-chromebook-pixel-and-more
I would return it for a refund if you can. I just got an anker usb-c to usb 3.0 cable and its working great so far: https://www.amazon.com/Anker-PowerLine-Resistor-Including-ChromeBook/dp/B01E9W8KYC
or if you want a really heavy duty one: https://www.amazon.com/Anker-PowerLine-Durability-Including-ChromeBook/dp/B01LNAAEJ2
You can never go wrong with Anker Powerline cables. Best built cables in the industry. Kevlar composite, same raw material used in anti-bullet vests. This one is 6ft too.

Here is the cable https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/Electronics-Photo/Anker-Powerline-Durability-Devices-Including-MacBook-ChromeBook/B01LNAAEJ2/
For 3rd party I've recently found Anker (as others have pointed out) to be top notch:
Wall Charger
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0196JB1ZS/
Portable Battery Charger (will also need a micro USB to charge the charger)
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0194WDVHI/
USB 3.0 to USB C
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LNAAEJ2/
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0119EIHTG/
USB C (won't work with the portable charger I listed)
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LNA0XCU
I do get rapid charging on my USB 3.0 to USB C cables when being supplied by an appropriate adapter (that Power IQ thing Anker does ;) ), so don't be too thrown off by not going USB C to USB C.
I have this cable and charger and they've worked incredibly well:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016LO4UTA
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LNAAEJ2
I have an inverter in our car and was able to use the Switch (BotW) on a 7 hour trip without the charge dropping below 100%. Obviously works just as well when plugged into the wall.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LNAAEJ2
I use this power bank with this usb-c cable and I haven't had any problems. The switch charges at a pretty normal rate compared to the official charger, and I haven't had any crashing, errors, or anything like that from using this pretty regularly since launch.
I bought this
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LNAAEJ2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_jyh8AbA8PNGTV)
right after I got my shitty V20 in December of 2016. It's been awesome, the phone has not.
Anker - once I saw that name I knew this would be good.
Their cables are the fucking best. I lost my original micro usb cable for my 10in Surface 3 (non-pro) and none of the shitty usbs I had delivered enough power over distance to actually charge the device. Their cable is so damn burly even the 10ft works just fine
the 6ft even came with a nice holder that looks like a sunglasses case

we all know the importance of these life giving umbilical cords we rely on
these cables are so fucking good ive become a fanboy repping some company online when I see their name
they are that good
I bought the 3ft Anker Powerline+ USB 3.0 to USB-C cable, quite nice a few dollars more than what OP posted but well worth it IMHO.
The 3 ft cable is $13.99 and the 6 ft cable is just a few dollars more at $15.99 for the Powerline+ cables.
There's also the regular PowerLine series of cables which are cheaper but work just as well (they're simply not braided as far as I can tell), I own a 1 ft Micro USB cable from this series and it's good too.
Want to buy this cable

Does anyone have experience with any of the above or perhaps a better recommendation?

I am using this one with the original charger.
I bit the bullet and picked up this USB type C cord It is by far one of the nicest cables I've ever owned.
