    Hardware Tutorial Project Battery-less switch. Another step in my Consolize project.

    These are the latest variants of shell and lid (attached zip, contains two STL files). I used some of the chassis from a damaged switch as a motherboard tray, just cut out the part I needed and glued it down. Drilled some holes manually and added screws to hold down the lid. Positioning the...

    This looks the go, I sacrificed a battery and integrated the BMS with the buck converter feeding it, and im no longer having the batt% changing over longer gaming sessions. When I get around to trying a revision 2 i'll see how much the BMS can be cut down.

    I've been sinking too many hours into TOTK to look further into it, but now I'm gonna have to sacrifice a battery I guess XD Wonder how small we can package it now that we know this.

    I don't even fill a 512gb micro sd hahaha. And I doubt there would be much performance gain from an A2 card to ssd other than more consistent speed.............. (goes to aliexpress) (sticks it to TV with double sided tape) Done. 1683880367 Yeah I just got this when it dropped to 84%, appears...

    Hardware Tutorial Project Battery-less switch. Another step in my Consolize project.

    I was bored, had a bunch of switches laying around, wanted to overclock the crap out of one to run TOTK smoothly without melting it. Didnt want a battery in it so it can just be chucked on a shelf and forgotten about without melting the house when I inevitably move onto something else. I'll...

    Hardware Tutorial Project Battery-less switch. Another step in my Consolize project.

    You're over complicating it, the reason you would normally need tight air paths is because the components are in a small enclosed space and cant passively dissipate their heat into the air due to the lack of air volume available. And despite that the factory airpath is in the rear vents, across...

    Your work saved me so much headache! I did figure out the fan pinout a few weeks ago as I do plan to eventually make another revision and try to make it smaller again using maybe a low profile GPU cooler. Anything from a card over 35W should work. No, you would start a lithium fire. A lot can...

    I have a spare LCD sitting around that I external mount to test and configure with, but as long as I keep hekate_ipl.ini configured correctly, there shouldn't be a need to use it after initial setup. Haha, its just 3d printed in transparent PLA, my cnc router would need a massive upgrade to do...

    I might still look into this, the main charge controller is the BQ24193 but it does communicate serial data with the soc so much more difficult to bypass as it may not boot at all without it. Progress being made, final version of the main shell for this cooling setup. Just needs a lid haha.

    Hardware Tutorial Project Battery-less switch. Another step in my Consolize project.

    For the switch to not crash during power source switching from power outage, you would have to have it powered from the battery just like a UPS system... so a factory configuration haha. Not that I am aware of, im sure you could jerry rig it to a smart lithium charger somehow? Yes the firmware...

    Hardware Tutorial Project Battery-less switch. Another step in my Consolize project.

    In my quest to 'consolize' a switch into a Switchn't I wanted to remove the requirement for a battery. Not much has been done to figure this out but I did find a thread on shmups in which user fwannmacher had over time figured it out after their battery failed. First step, there are two test...

    Hardware pinout of nintendo switch fan

    In case anyone else stumbles across this googling for the pinout, it is as follows. Left to right as above image 1 2 3 4. 1: PWM/Control 2: GND 3: Tach/Sense 4: +5V The switch uses a 25kHz PWM signal. Credit goes to Core Electronics Australia for listing these details on their replacement...

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    I had seen someone do it, its pretty sketchy and even they recommended against it. Trying to remember who did it and where I saw it.

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    So far in my experiance its best to run off the same voltage regs as the console when it comes to chips running payload injection, makes getting the signals into the right range much easier (for example we know 47ohm resistors do the job). If you start running with externally regulated voltage...

    What's the point of "confirming" games you know will get released. Like Nintendo "confirming" a Zelda sequel. "We can't be sure Nintendo is working on a new Zelda game, or if a new Zelda game will ever be released, until they officially confirm it."
  • Veho @ Veho:
    "There is literally no way to know if they will ever release a new Zelda game, it's wild speculation until they officially confirm it."
