updated to 6.1 via choidnujour nx so now in auto rcm mode any do,s and don’t,s I’ve heard a few things which is why I haven’t given it a go sooner

The only thing to remember is when turning the console off it might be restarting into rcm instead of actually staying off. Holding down power for 12 seconds takes care of that.

Dont let the battery die down, if it does dont panic, it takes a long time to charge back up

I too was apprehensive about using AutoRCM, seems I didn't need to be
IMO battery depletes at the same rate during sleep as it did before I used AutoRCM

That's because autorcm and rcm aren't the same thing. I think some people got confused about this way back at the beginning and the bad info has been perpetuated ever since. Whether someone uses autorcm or a jig makes no difference to sleep mode or anything else to do with the switch in normal use.

basically it works like a normal switch, batter depletes like normal, in sleep or power off. its also better for ure joycon rails no wear and tear .the way ive set up my switch is i use rekardo to autoboot hekate to autoboot kosmos. so basically i just plug my switch into my phone and cfw loads no need of any input. as close as i can get to an untethered jb given how this are at the moment, you can do this for reinx as well
