True but there are payload injectors that are super tiny and portable like the RCMloader which are cheap and let you inject the payload without a pc/android device/jailbroken iphone. All u need to do is bring it with u whenever ur going out for so long that ur Switch might run out of power.
From my comment above here:
> This isn’t true, he worded it very poorly lol. You just need a payload injector of some kind of you want to go back into “modded” mode, in simple terms. This could be a computer, android phone/tablet, a jailbroken iphone, or the most convenient tool: a payload injector dongle like the RCMloader. With this even if you don’t have any of the above, you can go back into “modded” mode and play ur pirated games and access all ur modded stuff. It’s pretty cheap esp on Aliexpress and incredibly handy.
> Also, when ur Switch is modded it the console shuts off at around 2-3% battery to prevent this from happening, and puts the Switch in a low power state. As long as u charge the switch before it COMPLETELY dies, this will never happen and you won’t even have to worry about it. However even if it does, all you have to do is plug that payload injector dongle (or u could use a pc or any of the devices I mentioned above) into the switch and turn it back on- and your right back up and running. Think the commenter above doesn’t know about this lol, it’s really no big deal and not a “bug” that needs fixing.

You can shut the system off, you just need to reinject the payload to get the mod back. There are mod chips you can install that do this so you never have to plug it into anything, but the simplest and most convenient way to to reinject the payload when ur not near a computer/android device is to use a Payload injector like RCMloader.

i use this one it’s more expensive for prime shipping but works like a charm
I bought this one but it appears it’s not available anymore. Might give this one a try. Seems it gets pretty good reviews and looks identical to the one I bought just the images have the logo blurred out

AliExpress is cheaper though.
More importantly: Do you have a way to inject a payload? For a basic test you don't need to have anything on your MicroSD, just inject e.g. Lockpick_RCM and see if it comes up fine. If so, your Switch is unpatched. (And as a bonus you'll already have the necessary encryption keys on your MicroSD afterwards.)
To inject a payload, you either have to connect an Android phone or PC to the Switch's USB-C port and use an app or get an RCM Loader.
