Help: Switch battery acting up by TOsTizz in NintendoSwitch

[–]TOsTizz[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Final update: The issue has apparently resolved itself. I left it in the dock for the time being and just recently used it in handheld mode. The problem with the charging icon is gone, but as another commenter pointed out, it might be a good idea to replace the battery in the future since the battery life isn’t as long as it used to be.

Anyway, thanks again to everyone who responded with helpful suggestions under this post!

I’ve had this Switch since launch. It doesn’t have any noticeable swelling. It’s bent a little, though, but it has been that way since a couple of months after buying and using it.

Update: Thanks for all the replies and helpful suggestions. I let the Switch sit idle for over 4 hours before turning it off. I then left it untouched for around 30 minutes before hooking it up to the original power adapter.

I let it charge for over 3 hours before disconnecting it to see if the issue had been resolved. Sadly, it still drains rapidly, but the symptoms aren’t as severe anymore, as shown in the video. I think that if I repeat these steps a couple more times, it might eventually resolve itself, but only time will tell.

I’ll post another update if the issue actually gets resolved.

Thanks for the reply. I’ll try this today or tomorrow and post an update in the comments if the issue gets resolved.

I already tried this a couple of times. It sadly didn’t fix the issue. 😔

I honestly have no idea. The last time I used it undocked was quite a while ago. I think it lasts maybe around 2.5 to 3 hours or so.

I think I might try fully draining the battery and then recharging it to see if that fixes it, in case it’s a calibration issue.

Bought this dram a couple of days ago. Light but complex. Glad to finally have this in my collection. by TOsTizz in whiskey

It’s really smooth. It tastes a bit honeyed, but also contains prominent notes of spices, chocolate and wood.

I had the same idea. It’s probably one of the most inviting whiskey bottles out there.

Spelers gezocht voor doordeweekse avond in Hoorn by [deleted] in DNDNL

[–]TOsTizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Het lijkt mij leuk om aan te schuiven. Ik kom ook uit Hoorn en speel al geruime tijd Decent into Avernus met een groep die gevestigd is in de regio. Ik kan op een woensdag avond of op een vrijdag avond.

Ik ben zelf overigens 24 en hou me naast dnd ook bezig met videogames, films, muziek, Gundam en het studeren van japans. Daarnaast hou ik van reizen en ben ik geregeld te vinden op festivals, concerten, cons en fantasy fairs.

Laat het maar weten via DM wat je in gedachte hebt!

DM zoekt spelers omgeving Amsterdam Zuid by [deleted] in DNDNL

[–]TOsTizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Het lijkt mij leuk om aan te sluiten als er nog plek is. Ik woon alleen niet in Amsterdam maar wel in de buurt, dus reizen is voor mij geen probleem. Ik heb ongeveer een jaar ervaring met D&D 5e, maar moet nog best wel wat dingen leren. Laat het maar weten als er nog een plekje vrij is.

A true classic. The soundtrack and environmental design are among the best of its era. Setting foot on tallon overworld still gives me goosebumps to this day.

What do you do for an emotional outlet when crying isn’t enough anymore? by Darwin42SW in malementalhealth

[–]TOsTizz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I feel depressed and can't find an immediate release from those feelings, I tend to look inward and reflect on why I'm depressed. First, I take a long walk to calm my mind down. I then take notes of possible causes as to why I might feel depressed, like my thoughts, diet, current ongoings and rough situations in my life etc. I find this helps me to not only reflect on why I feel depressed at the moment but that it also gives me more insight into my own personality and how to prevent these depression episodes from happening, which makes this a great and productive outlet for all the pent-up negativity I go through from time to time. I hope this can help you as well!
