Launch Switch Battery Replacement? (sh.itjust.works)

Anyone have any experience with this? I recently undocked my Switch for the first time in a while and found the battery was significantly swollen. I've powered it down but I want to replace it.

iFixit has a kit that seems good but there's others online for half the price. How risky would buying the cheaper one be?

Thanks

Edit: went with iFixit and it was a success!

Interesting, I guess it's been some time since I ordered form there. I am also across the ocean however. I will keep that in mind.

It makes a lot of difference. For me shipping times for both would be similar, but I'd have to pay for shipping from the US&A, and possibly some duties/taxes. With AE all of this is already included in the price of what I'm buying (except for some products that aren't offered with free shipping, which is always clearly stated).
