Hi all.
I noticed that joy cons discharge like hell. I'm talking like, I leave them on a table for two weeks on a full charge and they die completely. I thought it was because they were still paired to the console and tried to unpair them, but nope. Unpaired, left disconnected from my Switch, dead in two weeks.
I don't really understand why my old phones can sit in a drawer, turned off and lose maybe 2% of their battery in six months and these joy cons have to die in 2 weeks.
I have 4 joy cons and two of them are very rarely used and I don't feel like charging them every week or so. So; when they are brand new and sitting on store shelves the battery of course doesn't discharge this fast, otherwise they'd all be dead in 2 weeks after being produced and that's definitely not the case. Correct me if I'm wrong but if I open the joy cons, physically disconnect the battery, then connect it again and very carefully close the joy cons without pressing any button, they'd be back in that "store" state and the battery should get depleted very slow?
in before "just charge them"; my spare, rarely used couple of joy cons are the zelda SSHD ones. They're expensive and I travel a lot and I don't feel like travelling across half europe with those extra joy cons just because Nintendo is stupid and doesn't allow me to truly switch them off...
