There is no higher capacity one, just the battery run better on version 2 and oled switch.
It has to do with the new battery charging chip.

You can get extended batteries that clip onto the back and plug into the USB port. There aren't any internal ones. I personally don't see the point of it when you can use a powerbank, which doesn't increase the weight of the Switch and make it uncomfortable to hold, plus a powerbank can be used with all your devices rather than just the Switch.
If you really wanted, you could use any generic lipo battery and solder on the correct battery connector, or solder it directly to the board. Or use 2 OEM batteries in parallel. But you would have to modify the back shell (or 3D print one) to fit a bigger battery.
You can't put an OLED screen into the non-OLED Switch, the LCD ribbon connector is different. Maybe in time someone will make an adapter board to make it possible.

    That's a relief to hear. Do you know what happened?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Any idea what happened? I hope that your brother's doing good.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    What matters now is that he's doing alright.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But you still don't know what it was?
  • Veho @ Veho:

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
