What you all think of this?
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/switchch...ntendo-switch#/12 hours battery life + built in stand without the hassle of bringing separate powerbank + cable + stand. Price comparable to buying powerbank / cable /stand separately.
But it seems bulky.
Thoughts?? Bulk order??

This defeats the whole idea of keeping Switch slim and portable. I prefer the "disconnected" Switch + powerbank versus one that is attached together. It's not like I need to walk around with the Switch while playing, nor would I be looking to keep the Switch charged while I'm out and about either. My routine dictates that I only needed to keep the Switch charged while I'm stationary (chilling at Starbucks or waiting for a lunch date at a restaurant), and putting on the Hori Stand + powerbank takes less than 2 minutes to set up. And are you gonna be putting in that battery pack and removing it frequently when you wanna dock it for big screen use.
A month of using the Switch frequently. taking it and out, tells me that I don't need this. I never was running out of battery when I'm walking, and I don't play my games while walking. Neither does short bursts of playing games on the Switch while waiting for the bus (taken the bus from Putrajaya to Kotaraya) and LRT/MRT (from HeavyArm store in SS15 to KLCC) while playing Zelda BOTW doesn't sap the battery enough to warrant me needing this. Plus, playing games on Switch while you're walking sounds dangerous.
And then, there's the question of "is this USB-PD" with rapid charge? The campaign page on IG doesn't indicate that it is, it only mention the pack sustainsyour gaming experience on the Switch for as long as 12 hours. It's more advantageous to have USB-PD rated powerbank than a battery pack case like this that charges slowly at standard USB-C charge of 5V 2A at most. Charge time can be double or triple-times faster on USB-PD powerbanks than standard ones, and I suspect, with the asking price they're put, it's a standard USB-C charge that is non-PD at 5V 2A.
I've grown to love my Switch as a svelte, slim, sexy beast. Putting this hideous thing on is like those uncles and aunties who put smartphone covers with flaps on them, and struggles to keep the flap from slapping their faces while taking a call.

Keep it simple, keep it compartmentalized. That way, when one of your component craps out (USB-C cable, powerbank, stand), they can easily be replaced compared to this all-in-one thing.
