SOMEONE HAS DONE IT!
I also remember seeing an old tread about someone putting another battery in their switch.
I just wanted to share this
Taking generic lipo/li-ion batteries and wiring them to the battery terminals doesn't count. Of course it's possible, but it requires some electronics know how. It's not just a drop in replacement.
I don't know why he didn't go with a lipo pouch. Having that thing sticking out of the back looks so unsightly, and it for sure won't fit in a pouch. A large, thin lipo pouch wouldn't increase the thickness much, so it might still fit in many pouches and also make it more comfortable to hold.
I agree about the looks, and I just wanted to share how uhhhh creative this guys solution was. I don't think there will ever be something like the nyko battery pack for the 3DS made for the Switch, mostly because of the battery cases being a better solution.
There doesn't really need to be, because the Switch battery is connected by a cable, it's easy to solder the connector onto any lipo pouch battery.
In addition for those who wonder, there is this complete and interesting article comparing battery life & charge for V1 & V2 switch, including playtime with and without powerbank.
--> V2 + powerbank provides more than 10h playtime.

Done many switch batteries tricky but do able...just make sure you get one that is the same as the oem battery. HAC-003 4310mAh

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+1 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
