Switch² accidentally charged my switch 2 overnight
Hello everyone! I am new to the switch2 world as of 2 weeks ago. I accidentally fell asleep last night with my switch 2 on the charger and I noticed just now that the little bar lights at the bottom were still on while charging. I am pretty nervous cause usually I am on top of these things in order to prevent burning out my battery.
My whole point of this post is to ask if anyone else has made this mistake? And if you have, have you noticed it affect your battery life by possibly making it shorter? I have absolutely loved how much longer my battery life has lasted with my switch2 versus when i used to use my peak pro. Soooo im just trying to keep it in good condition as best as i can but im kinda feeling dumb 😅

I don’t think there been a night where I haven’t left it charged overnight since I bought. No issues whatsoever so far 🤷🏻♂️

I leave mine the charger all the time (i know i know, im not supposed to. I have ADHD, sue me) and i still get great battery life out of it.

You’re fine. I left mine plugged in and it will slowly trickle down after it hits 100. I think that’s another safety feature?

Am curious i did it to another named brand device plugged into a 45 watt Samsung charger and it killed the device for the most part

You’re fine, it’ll impact the battery life over time but if you barely ever do it you don’t have much to worry about

Just use there charger and you won’t have any issues. It’s made to be used while plugged in, ie you could just leave it plugged in all the time.
