Hacking Question CAN you install a CFW to the Switch Lite?

[kerbmario]

Because without a ModChip u cant access RCM, and u need it, so is it possible to install CFW without a mod chip on my scwith lite

No, at this moment you can't install CFW on the Lite without a modchip.

Not possible at the moment without a SX Lite.

You can access RCM even without a modchip.

The modchips are very difficult to install and require someone who is quite experienced with soldering. The modchips themselves are around $150-200. At this point in time its not really feasible, especially for a console that costs about the same amount as a modchip. Your best option would be to sell your current switch and try to buy a V1 unpatched switch if you are wanting CFW.

I've seen hwfly go for like 6$ even on other sites too. Turns out this was a mistake on my end.
As for the skill level, they aren't easiest to install and obviously not even close to as easy a Jig on an older system. Although, I am not sure how cheaply you can find an older Switch as it seems most unpatched are going about 250$ on eBay for console only. That can add a lot of additional expenses, but I guess that might be worth it for how easy a jig really is

That isn't the modchip. That's only some adapter boards for the install of the modchip.

Ah, that's actually my mistake, and looks like they are about 120$. That's my bad, I am not normally looking into these prices and only went off what I could find, turns out I needed to do a little more digging. I appreciate the correction and I will keep that noted for next time.
