Would be nice if we went back to using the AA, AAA type batteries too. I’ve got like 20 rechargables still good and only need them for my controllers and remote. Everything else seems to have done away with them. :(
The battery life on a Switch/Steam Deck would be horrific with AA/AAA batteries. Plus the reasoning for this legislation is to reduce e-waste, using AA/AAA batteries just creates more.
What part of the legislation requires small batteries like AAs?
If the unit has a LIon battery, make it slide out like UPS batteries do. Make it a custom shape if you hate people, or make it a common hi-density cell if you aren’t apple.
