Switch 2: Battery discharging when powered off.

[The Cockney Rebel]

Hello all.

Fully charging the Switch 2, then fully powering it off.

When I power it up a few hours later, battery percentage has dropped by 10%.

Anyone else experience this?

I have a replacement being delivered today, so hopefully that one is good.

I wonder if the joycons still get power from the main battery even when the system is "off".

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, that did cross my mind.

However, 10% overnight seems excessive re charging the JoyCons.

I’m actually testing on another unit, as John Lewis sent me a replacement.

I have a collection booked for Thursday, to send the dud one back, so I have a bit of time to troubleshoot.

What I will say is that the replacement unit was left alone, charged to 100%, and that never dipped for a day or so.

Thanks again for your input 👍🏼.
