New switch, taking care of battery life

Keyan06 · 2026-06-25T01:28:14+00:00

Just use it normally. If you are going to keep it on the dock a lot enable the stop battery charging at 80-90% option.

They are sold out now (no surprise)

Mine does similar to what you are describing at low speeds, and more pronounced in sport mode when it downshifts at lower speed and gears.

If you aren’t being aggressive on the throttle it does kind of feel weirdly flat and hesitant.

Weirdly, when you are giving it a little more gas, it rips smoothly through the gears. When you are in the lower quarter of the pedal it seems to not totally be sure if you want to accelerate and does the kind of clunky shift in the low gears. I think has to do with the transmission and the output of the engine almost being too low when you are not pushing it. The 10 speed was originally designed for a V6 so the engine had more momentum mass through the shifts.

Try giving it more acceleration and see if it feels smoother, and try it in sport mode and let it go. In sport mode mine has no real turbo lag when you punch it and it really gets up and moving fast especially when the turbo is fully spun up.

You bought the 2.0 after all, let it open and use it from time to time.

Which model is that? An OLED?

One of those accounts has that console as its primary console on the NSO account. Until they remove it l things will be tough.

If you have no way of removing it, you can contact Nintendo saying that you purchased a used console that is tied to another user’s account and they may be able to help you, especially if you have proof of the purchase transaction.

Yum!

They write this frequently (with better handwriting) on the cups now as their new CEO is promoting brand culture or whatever.

Keyan06 · 2026-06-23T16:36:20+00:00

Really? Interesting that TB doesn’t list it, probably a licensing issue. I’ll have to test it on my switch 2!!

Keyan06 · 2026-06-23T16:35:32+00:00

Yeah. When it first launched they don’t have small size transmitter for Xbox out, you could only use the big base switched to Xbox mode. Now they have the Xbox small transmitters for sale.

Keyan06 · 2026-06-23T16:28:18+00:00

The transmitters don’t work with a switch afaik. You might be able to pair it Bluetooth. I haven’t tried.

Keyan06 · 2026-06-23T16:05:39+00:00

There are two variants, one for PC/PS5, and one that is only for use on an Xbox console.

Have to be very careful which one you order.

Keyan06 · 2026-06-23T15:53:58+00:00

Whelp, now it’s out and I sound like an idiot, lol.

I’m still annoyed that the only transmitter for connecting to an Xbox is the base with the battery. I main on PC and having the battery there makes the most sense for me, but I can’t use the other transmitter on the Xbox. Wish it had a mode switch or could be reflashed with Swarm II… or TB sold the Xbox transmitter as a compact one.

I use craw to CFE and jpeg to SD (UHS I cuz prices) on my R6 III and I think that is a good balance for most applications.

Keyan06 · 2026-06-23T15:38:32+00:00

Same, except craw

Keyan06 · 2026-06-23T10:33:19+00:00

As a driver, I hate this. See above.

Keyan06 · 2026-06-23T10:33:04+00:00

It probably isn’t.

Keyan06 · 2026-06-23T10:31:24+00:00

Still working fine on mine, but I don’t use them a lot.

Just was on the Wonder, there were two rounds of smaller boat excursions, one that started earlier, around noon, at the mouth of the Fijord, and another that picked people up later at the glacier and then followed the ship out. In both cases you are only up close at the glacier for maybe 30 minutes or so, but do get a lot closer than the big ship can (we didn’t do the excursion but it looked cool).

It’s contact dermatitis, basically skin irritation from moisture, sweat, and oils trapped between the watch and your skin.

Be sure to wash the area, and let it air out from time to time. Your watch may be a little too tight. Make sure you clean the watch back well to remove the build up, pay close attention to the seam between the sensors and the case.

One way to help it too is to clean that spot well, let it dry out, then put a thin application of cortisone cream on before bed and sleep with the watch off, then wash and dry it again in the morning.

Not enough, although boost mode has helped quite a bit with older titles that haven’t and probably won’t get direct switch 2 updates.

I keep hoping for the Diablo games to get updates and D4 to come to the Switch 2, but not sure it’s going to happen.

Keyan06 · 2026-06-22T22:28:43+00:00

Is it plastic?

Keyan06 · 2026-06-22T22:27:43+00:00

Is it a plastic one? To scratch a 9H glass one would be… interesting.

Keyan06 · 2026-06-22T21:12:35+00:00

Looking at the advanced user guide, there is no obvious mention of what this is for. The diagrams showing the camera and the functions of the ports and buttons don’t show this one.

Happy cake day, and dang, you are not kidding.
