65w battery banks are not exactly cheap nor common though. And you are gonna need something around that if you want to play while charging.

Well, 65w or 100w battery banks are not exactly expensive either.

I bought this one last year for €39 and it is awesome! Loads all of my mobile devices (Android phone, iPad Pro M2, Steam Deck OLED, Switch 1 OLED and Switch 2) very very fast:

And thanks to the two USB-C ports of the Switch 2, it is more easier than ever to connect the USB-C-cable without causing a disturbance.

This model is around 45 euros right now in most stores (it's not available on Amazon Spain right now). Having to buy a separate accessory just to get more battery life on the Switch 2 seems expensive to me.

Having said that, using a power bank to get a decent battery life also shortens the battery's lifespan, because you are exposing the battery to more charge cicles. If the battery itself had a bigger capacity, this would not be a problem.
