Nice good to knowIt’s a micro USB port and only for recovering or debuging the chip.
Diagrams will come in this weekend or Monday

the OG switch peaked at 60c with fan unplugged/covered when someone tried to overheat it.Yeah the installation look risky, personally I wouldn’t want to unseat heatsink, also to place ribbon on top of cpu chip, that may cause the ribbon to disintegrate by exposing to the heat generated. I think the best would be just remove the metal shield and back cover only, and simply clip in the connections.
read the thread diagrams are not out yet they sending them when most people have received their test unitsDid the lite come with a diagram to install can you please share?
you can patch games to run on lower FW's though , and it is hardly ever that Nintendo actually adds anything usefulSuddenly my jig doesn't seem so bad...
I don't care if it's once a week or once every few months, having to open your Switch for any kind of 'update' would really suck balls.
That’s an error. TX confirmed it worked on all current firmwares including 10.0.xCheck that your console firmware is no higher than v9.2.0 (Returns are not accepted for incompatible consoles)

Yes they did and they say that it will always be a mode to work around . So no worrys thereHave they mentioned whether it's possible to be patched out by Nintendo in the future?

Good break down in this video. Pretty much explained all parts and their function. As someone mentioned already, looks like only 2 soldering points for both Core and Lite.
Why don't you just feed me to the lions.. Stomp on my head while I'm drowning. "Team Player".I'm not sure I come to the same conclusion as that breakdown video on SP1 and SP2. The exposed pads around the holes for 2 resistors look to me like you're going to need to bridge that directly to the resistors on the SoC, not the giant pads below that he's indicating. Those look like possibly grounding pads against the heatpipe assembly to me. There's also several pads that will be bridged to tiny components on the other piece, it looks like 7 points there too.
it was a good breakdown but on the switch lite he definitely missed 2 very obvious solder points @ 13:12 in the video if you look to the far left on the main board of the mod chip you can see 2 quick solder points that you need to solder to each end of a surface mounted resistor or capacitor that is located right above the micro SD slotWhy don't you just feed me to the lions.. Stomp on my head while I'm drowning. "Team Player".
I’m pretty sure the temperature is captured using internal temperature sensor or FLIR, we all got to joke around how game consoles getting bend, SD card getting bend, I know switch get a little warm when it’s loaded, tbh it’s one of the Nintendo product that I think running at very high temperature, the core temperature might be 60c, but I had no idea the long term impact on high heat, also it’s the cpu that’s generally the warmest spot and nobody wish to attach anything near to that. Yeah I owned a switch, and it warm up just like any personal laptop I owned. And I wonder why people want to attach a cooling fan on the back of the switch, that make very little sense. Mariko units are great, I'd like to get one ASAP, hopefully could expect a 5c improvement.the OG switch peaked at 60c with fan unplugged/covered when someone tried to overheat it.
the mariko switches run cooler due to smaller NM soc and not including you can drop the temperature more with a thermal replace and having the copper tape removed to make the heatpipe actually touch the die directly
even so the flex cable should be easily in heat specifications for electronics
