Hacking Charging switch

[gap30]

Hi all I have recently moved home and left my switch in storage for 8 weeks

How long will I need to charge it just to connect to PC to boot into cfw?

In theory, few milliseconds. In reality, a few minutes should be more than enough.

Boot into rcm and then plug the external psu into usb port to charge at the nintendo logo after you've launched cfw or ofw. Don't try to let it sit there and charge in RCM mode. Get it enough juice to get to the logo and once its there it should be able to quick charge.

plug it into the nintendo charger, hold power for 15 sec to make sure its completely off and leave it for a while. Hopefully it will have charged enough to at least enter rcm correctly. Push hekate and let it charge until 15% before trying to boot into HOS
