It&#8217;s an amazing portable and a solid console. Unfortunately, one downside of its portability is its relatively weak battery life of 2.5 &#8211; 6 hours, and usually on the lower end of that scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, there&#8217;s a product like <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2nWv9GT\">Antank&#8217;s Nintendo Switch Battery Case<\/a> to help solve the problem of having enough power for extended game sessions away from a charger or dock.

data-gr-id=\"34\">is<\/g> the battery case itself, a dustproof drawstring bag, and instructions. While no charging cable is included, the <g class=\"gr_ gr_32 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"32\" data-gr-id=\"32\">Antank<\/g> can use the Nintendo Switch&#8217;s AC adapter or any USB-C cable. It&#8217;s the latter that I&#8217;ve been using to charge the battery without issue.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aesthetically, the all-black, slightly rubbery battery case looks and feels nice enough, although a little bit of the finish on my particular unit did rub off on the rear two slot game card holder compartment. There&#8217;s a reasonable balance to the <g class=\"gr_ gr_35 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"35\" data-gr-id=\"35\">Antank<\/g> when attached to the Switch, although you will feel the difference in the combined weight. On the plus side, the combination of the two units does make the Switch feel more substantial, and there is a built-in stand, so it&#8217;s easy enough to place on a flat surface for additional support if needed.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the 6500mAh (32.5Wh) battery is said to charge the Switch more than once, in my testing, with active play while running the battery, I was &#8220;only&#8221; able to add 100% more time to my play session for an effective 1x additional charge. That&#8217;s still double the normal battery life versus without use of the battery pack, and you can always charge the battery and use it at the same time should a USB-C cable and suitable power source be available. It&#8217;s far less picky than the Switch itself is with how it&#8217;s charged.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><g class=\"gr_ gr_19 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_disable_anim_appear Grammar only-ins doubleReplace replaceWithoutSep\" id=\"19\" data-gr-id=\"19\">Operation<\/g> is simple.

It&#8217;s then like your Switch is being charged through its normal charger. While the <g class=\"gr_ gr_27 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"27\" data-gr-id=\"27\">Antank<\/g> does get slightly warm when attached to the Switch, it&#8217;s well ventilated, so it&#8217;s a minor issue at best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2047.jpg?resize=4032%2C3024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"8307\" data-link=\"https:\/\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/?attachment_id=8307\" class=\"wp-image-8307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2047.jpg?w=4032&amp;ssl=1 4032w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2047.jpg?resize=150%2C113&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2047.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2047.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2047.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2047.jpg?w=2000&amp;ssl=1 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2047.jpg?w=3000&amp;ssl=1 3000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>Despite the noticeable weight, it&#8217;s still pretty well-balanced.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4032\" height=\"3024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2049.jpg?resize=4032%2C3024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"8308\" data-link=\"https:\/\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/?attachment_id=8308\" class=\"wp-image-8308\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2049.jpg?w=4032&amp;ssl=1 4032w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2049.jpg?resize=150%2C113&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2049.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2049.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2049.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2049.jpg?w=2000&amp;ssl=1 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/armchairarcade.com\/perspectives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/IMG_2049.jpg?w=3000&amp;ssl=1 3000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>It feels good too, with a nice texture.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking to extend the battery life of your Switch, then the <g class=\"gr_ gr_10 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_disable_anim_appear ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"10\" data-gr-id=\"10\">Antank<\/g> makes for a fine choice.
