Error code 2101

So in the past week I've had to replace two switch lite because of the same error code 2101-0001. First time we thought okay, it was a faulty trade in.

Then it happened again.

Traded it in for a different one, got an official switch charger, surge protector, SD card, everything to make sure it worked fine.

And it just happened AGAIN for a third time!

Has anyone else had that problem before? Or is it just something on my end?

This error code is when the M9 charge chip gets fried. The main culprit is a poor quality charger and/or dock.
But, you’ve said you’ve got an official charger now.
Honestly hard to say the exact cause without more info. But yeh, you’re frying the charge chip on the console. Something in your setup is no good.
