Nyko Power Pak - 5000 mAh rechargeable battery pack with built-in Kickstand for Nintendo Switch

This thing is amazing. Some of these people who's reviews I read were probably unlucky or don't know how to use it. First, my kickstand doesn't ever just pop off unless there is a good amount of force applied. Secondly, another review says the charging port is blocked when the joycons are on. That is because he has joycon covers on. It does take a while to charge but I don't mind. People, keep in mind that this is a travel accessory. It's not meant to be kept on 24/7. So there's no complaint about why it needs to fit in the dock with it on. If you are out a lot or travel a lot this is a great investment. I love mine and it does a great job of what it's supposed to do. It's sleek, has a little weight but nothing extreme and works great. I'd recommend this

This is potentially a great product and it does exactly what it says. It will double your battery life without the need for charging cable and external battery pack. But here are some cons: - Kickstand doesn't want to stay close. The closing mechanism is pretty bad. It also look flimsy, but still way better than the built-in kick stand, which is horrible. - Does add weight, you won't feel it at first but eventually you will and you'll start resting it on your lap more without realizing it. - Would love to have the battery charge the switch without having to press a button. I know most battery cases do this, but this just adds one more thing to remember, and my 4 year old won't and complain that the switch is dead. - It's undockable. One of the greatest things about the switch is the ability to quickly switch between mobile play and TV-console play. This takes that away completely. You must remove the battery pack to dock the switch. This can easily be solved if they made a TV dock that is compatible with this case. But I doubt the USB-C port on the side of battery will pass along the TV signal. Also since it's on the side, it won't be a simple drop-in mechanism. - The opening for the cartridge hatch is also pretty tight so it s bit harder to swap cartridge. - Not it's fault, but my switch no longer fits in my travel case. This all I have after a day with it. It sounds a lot like nitpicking, but the fact that still gave it a 4 star shows I much I still like it, because, again, it does exactly what it says it would. One cool thing this case does is that it allows non-standard cables. I use these magnetic USB cables (kinda like the Apple Mag-Safe). These don't seem to work when I plug it straight into the Switch even with Adaptive Fast-Charge adapter. But when I plug into the battery case, it charges both just fine which is really nice. I'll update if I find anything else worth noting.

This performs its primary purpose well (charging), so no complaints on that front. However, this thing charges incredibly slowly. Like multiple hours just to go from 50-100% charge. This is because it doesn't support any form of USB-PD, just the base USB 2.0 specification of 500 mA. If you do the math, that's 10 hours to fully charge from 0% (though I doubt this pack is actually 5000 mA). The other issue is poorly though out tolerances. Anything but the thinnest headphone jack will not fit. I have a pair of Sennheiser HD280 Pro's, and in order for them to fit, I had to file away quite a bit of material around the opening for the headphone jack. The kickstand is also completely useless (just like the V1 Switch's built-in kickstand), and it doesn't clip into place whatsoever, just flops around. I used a dab of superglue just to hold it closed because it isn't useful in the first place.

Bought it to add some extra time when using the switch out of the dock. Works really well. Charges fairly quickly and gives the switch another few hours of gameplay. Isn’t overly large or uncomfortable. Fits the switch perfectly and almost feels like nothing is there. Would recommend.

The battery itself works fine, but the kickstand fell apart in a matter of days. I had high hopes that buying this thing would not only give me extra juice, but also give me a portable kickstand that worked. Instead, within days, the kickstand connection came apart. I already have other batteries that I can use with my Switch, so the key selling point of this product was that it was fully self-contained. With a kickstand this flimsy, I'd say Nyko should try again. The battery itself is also nothing to call home about. I have batteries that are similar in size and literally more than 4x the juice, so it doesn't win many points in my book just for being a competent battery. It's disappointing because I generally like Nyko's third-party accessories, but this is the *second* Switch battery accessory from them that failed for me.

Si en muchas ocasiones no tienes chance de jugar en tu televisor y te parece mejor jugar de manera portátil esta pila es ampliamente recomendable para ti ya que te da como cinco recargas y un promedio de 15 horas de juego y solamente se recarga la pila en 2 horas

last along time and easy to charge up grandson loves it as the switch battery pack not very good and now he can use it without keep charging every few hours last for days 10/10

Really happy. Arrived quick. Highly recommended

Plutôt bien même si un peu lourd. L'essentiel est que ça apporte un vrai gain de temps de jeu donc je recommande, en plus c'est pas vraiment cher

Definitely helps keep the switch alive on long plane rides, where it would normally die. Not sure how much more life I was able to gain, but up to 5 hours I think.
