You have to open the Switch up, remove the battery, then power cycle it

Can do this without opening the console ? Can I just wait until the battery is empty and charge it completely ?

No, you can't
The battery needs to be completely discharge and you can power on your console only when you charge it.

No, and it has to do with more than discharging the battery. You must pull the battery, hold the power button for 10-15 seconds with battery disconnected to properly discharge of capacitors and clear memory, and reconnect battery.

Letting it drain will not help as the battery will still keep capacitors live past the switch's "0%" marker. You need to clear those to clear memory. Please post any further questions / responses to that thread.
