oGoDeal HAC-003 Battery Replacement Compatible for Nintendo Switch 2017 Game Console HAC-001 Internal Upgrade 4310mAh Battery with DIY Repair Tool Kit

The replacement battery is top notch, all the tools feel good in the hands, it's easy to use. One thing of note is that you'll definitely need something to apply heat to the battery you're trying to take out of your switch like maybe a hair dryer or something. Other than that, this here is golden.

Stripped my screws... drilled out and got to it! Battery was lifted off with tool (glue wasn't loosened I don't have a heat gun). Worked immediately and is charging. Original battery wasn't charging and device was dead. The quality is good for the price. Replacement was easy with instructions.

My switch battery has degraded and online lasts about 2 hours from a full charge so I decided to swap it out. Based on the reviews, I bought this and swapped the battery. Immediately the switch flashes a red low battery warning on the screen, even though there is >50% charge showing on the battery. Switch powers off randomly as well. A replacement battery also had the same failure mode so I gave up and put the OEM battery back in. Do not buy.

As the title says, installation was fine. Just keep track of the screws and watch an iFixit teardown guide. Due to the extremely strong adhesive Nintendo uses to attach the battery, the guitar pick pry tool is worthless. I used an old gift card on the side closest to the connector, shoving it in with some force, and lifted it out. Don't puncture the battery or try to use any tool that might. Battery life is about 2.5 hours in Animal Crossing at maximum brightness, which is as expected for a launch model switch.As an aside, if you experience high temps or loud fans, consider replacing the thermal paste with Thermalright/Arctic paste or Honeywell PTM-7950 (Linus sells it if you want to guarantee it is real). Replacement fans can be had for cheap on Ali Express.

This is a great product for the cost. Considering the battery, and both needed screwdrivers are included, this is a great kit for cheap.Install SHOULD have been extremely easy. However due to how the switch was manufactured, the screws were over-tightened, one was stripped after just two twists of trying to remove, and the stock battery was glued in with a giant glob of glue. I had to drill out the stripped screw, then heat and pry on the battery for over 30 minutes before it came out (still had to forcefully remove it). So the process itself is very straightforward. But carrying it out, not so much. This does not reflect the quality of this product. But should be noted that install difficulty may vary from easy to medium at best.As far as the battery, it works as expected. However the battery life is just ‘okay’ in my opinion. I replaced the stock battery because I was only getting a couple of hours out of it, after a few years of use and sitting on the charger for long periods of time. This new battery is the same. I get a couple hours at best. So there wasn’t really much improvement.

Just like many others I was very skeptical about this product, but I had little to lose if it didn't work. Again as others stated, I brought the Switch back to the retailer I purchased it from and because the extended warranty expired they will not send it for service through them. They were willing to give me the repair service provider information but once they explained how expensive it was I chose this route and I am glad I did.The instructions are okay at best, but the tools worked great except for the pry tool which gave a little too much when removing the battery, but in the end if still worked. You will definitely need to use heat to remove the battery as the instructions inform you. I used my daughter's hair dryer and it loosened the glue right up. Installed the new battery and the Switch was reborn. Went from not turning on to working perfectly fine. At this point we have not had any issues with the battery, but I will update if that changes.

My son and I were able to swap out the battery on his switch after watching a quick video on the process. The included instructions for the battery were missing a few key details, but nothing you couldn't figure out without a bit of guessing. There was this mystery piece of plastic with double-sided tape or adhesion material but the shape didn't seem to match anything on the battery or bottom compartment. I'm sure it had a purpose but we never figured it out.One thing I wish this came with was the replacement foam. The stuff attached to the original battery ripped apart and looked terrible, but we made it work. Also, you definitely, definitely want to have a hair dryer or heat gun or else you'll tear up your Switch trying to free up the stock tape. We managed with using a space heater because I couldn't find my heat gun, but I don't recommend it.We put it all back together and it came right on. I didn't have a chance to rate the battery life but it had 40% on it out of the box and took charge just fine. Hoping that's the end of the frantic search for chargers when we're on road trips or trying to leave the house on time.

The tools that came with it are really good quality. Magnetic screwdrivers and good spudgers. Everything you need to open up the switch.The battery is not great. Been trying to calibrate it for the last few days by charging to full and then playing until it sleeps. It discharges from 100% to 15% in like 10 minutes, then continues to show 1% for like an hour or so. Takes about 3-4 hours to charge and runs out of battery in 1.5 when not docked. I'm hesitant to take everything apart again though.
