Everyone has been wondering how things are moving along with getting the SX PRO devices into the hands of the official resellers, and today we had the pleasure to be given an exclusive tour of the inside of the Team-Xecuter factory, and we took some cool photos of the assembly line in operation, and at the same time the developers took a break out of their busy schedule to answer some more of your questions you been having recently since the last SX update a few days ago.

The clock is ticking and we are getting closer to Xecuter SX line launch date.

We wanted to share some of the pictures of the first units coming out of our assembly lines and of the packaging for SX Pro. We are very satisfied with the product quality and we are certain you will be as well. We will have some video and maybe another announcement coming and then it will be TIME!

Before we leave you, our usual Q&A to your most popular questions.

• Q: Is SX OS compatible with firmware 5.1.0
  A: Of course. And as we stated before, it will be compatible with the next updates as well. We are offering a future proof solution.

• Q: Will the SX OS for people who bought it 'stand alone' be delivered before the SX OS for people who bought SX Pro?
  A: Not necessarily. SX Pro will be shipped in the days to come to distributors. SX OS will be unlocked a bit after the reviewers get their units (all reviewers receive SX Pro).
  So depending on the speed of delivery to your distributor and then to you, SX Pro could come before SX OS stand alone. It probably will be very close.

• Q: Why is there - and + symbols engraved in the SX Pro dongle?
  Since USB-C devices can be plugged in either way, people are worried if dongle plugged in upside down, the + on left and - on right, and SX label facing down, that the Switch will blew up or get bricked, etc.
  A: They are here just for cosmetic reasons. The - symbol is also the LED window.

• Q: Yikes, those are two huge caps in render picture? Is that going to taser my Switch, damage my system, or zap me!
  A: Super Cap’s actually (super-capacitor), 0.35F 2.7V, given the transport issues with Lithium based batteries SuperCap’s are fast becoming the go to temporary power source.
  No zapping ( very low voltage ) and we limit the charge current to ~400mA peak for either USB port.

• Q: Huh, two caps, how do they get 'charged'? Do I have now and then plug my dongle into micro-USB cable to charge it, what happens when it runs out of power? -- Why not battery instead? -- Does it instead drain my Switch battery, what happens if I leave it plugged in.
  A: The SuperCap’s are charged from either usb port ( USB-C or Micro USB ). The caps offer approximately 1 week standby time with enough energy left for one boot, or at least 5 successive boots without the opportunity to auto-charge. Charge to 80% is achieved (automatically) within 1-2 seconds of entry into the Nintendo start menu. We are working reducing that considerably … (see above for why not battery). Because we are powered by s-cap’s we have a very power conscious design.
  Leaving the dongle in the console for more than a minute is pointless but will do no harm in any way to the dongle and drain very little battery ( currently we draw ~25mA but will work on reducing that considerably after ~1-2 minutes charge mode).

• Q: Can I charge my Switch via dongle?
  Using just micro-usb cable, removing the need of needing a proper usb-c cable.
  A: Sadly no, our intent for the micro USB port was for charging the dongle and firmware updates, but might be something we will consider for future hardware revisions, thanks.

• Q: There been reports of cables, and docks without that bricked the battery charging circuit, are we at risk with SX Pro solution?
  A: No, simply because we do not support charging. The dongle uses both USB ports only for receiving charge.

• Q: Is TX coming up with solution for those that leave their Switch always 'docked'?
  Its nice, that is portable, but some users never go 'portable', they are DOCK only fans, what about them?
  A: If the demand is there, it is something we can develop.

Absolutely nothing.

That is when our savior @SoulOfGazza will release the SX OS cracked and hacked and pirated for free! But not for us.

You're an odd duck you are. Edgy was joking around calling you a spy (ninja) for Nintendo. My retort (reply) was calling him the spy by referring to his avatar (profile image).

Thanks for the explain lol :-)

I'm curious why GaryOPA is silent about this drama? Your thoughts guys?

Because of jet lag, flying back from TX factory in Taiwan after taking those cool pics, and besides replying to this troll or talking about him just fuels the drama fire, and then we end up with a real problem on our hands, running out of popcorn, if that occurs, everything will go shit fast, its only thing that keeps the peace as we too busy eating popcorn to type about this.

Did you bring some review units with you? Any idea when we see the next video from TX?

Soon

Im wondering if there are any plans to enable to USB Storage with the CFW. For me as Docked only, this would be much more interessting as an SD Card.

Thanks Gary for your answer, and hard work about updates. Hope you doing well after jet lag. I'm on your side in this drama!

Its so nice to have basic English , and dont knowing what means things like : Nintendo's ninja has been detected... .. And he's repping a runescape avy.. Hmm

So im going to take it like they said something nice about my comment and keep waiting for the free realeased aldom i have paid for the licence

Yes it was a complement. We're one hacking community here after all. Edgy brings only positive vibes.
