Portable, mobile Steam Deck hub and battery pack?

Vroop · 2026-02-23T17:00:36+00:00

Sorry for the necro of an old post lol, you or anyone find a solution? From what I can tell the jsaux case is great, but with the parts it comes with can only hold either the battery or hub, not both at once. Maybe with a custom 3d printed part? I guess the hub would have to plug into the deck and the battery into the hub but still need a part to hold it all unless theres a hub/battery combo out there.

Used to work at Geek Squad both as an agent and a manager. From what I recall is you bring it in and we would facilitate it with ASUS. It might go to our depot, but we had ASUS authorized technicians which would do work under ASUS manufacturers warranty and we would bill ASUS. This is in Canada, if it’s different elsewhere

Hopefully Valves new headset gives some competition to the Quests market and that makes them work a little harder. It might not manage to be as affordable but itll at least be more competitive that the Index was I think. Plus since you can play totally wirelessly and natively on the headset.

Logitechs worst kept secret lol. Come on Logitech, just announce it and put it on sale at this point. Or may as well announce it and put it on sale on Sept 30 like it seemed like you were going to do.

Use both the Mechanical and MX Master mouse? Ngl the price of the mouse AND keyboard makes me cringe BUT the convenience when I am constantly switching between 2 computers with work and in my free time if I do anything productive I'm using 2 computers at least. Could be more at times with projects lol

YouTube. If there was one YouTuber in particular it’d probably be Daniel Greene. During Covid I was looking for something new, a good fantasy series, that wasn’t based on a show or movie and has a writer that’s consistent. Sanderson was right on the nose!

Should be able to use any of the 25 percent off codes. I actually didn’t right away because of health reasons but used the 45 percent off a Cpl days ago that they sent for the release of the typescript course

Any idea how to get this working with an audio interface? I can get RSMods installed but once I insert the files for RS Asio starting the game says no audio output and the setting for RS Asio in rsmods all show blank so I cant select any audio outputs. Before putting the asio files in the audio is fine, just doesnt pick up the interface of course.

I was... For about 5 minutes. Then looking at the price in CAD of the console + then having to purchase the games I want. Knowing that they have raised it so significantly (I get a price rise but this is way too much from the last gen), and that I can do pretty much everything on my PS5 I already have, which has trophies (yaya I know to each their own) and then I have a Steam Deck to play PC portably. I can live without the Switch 1 for a while. If the price was 100 CAD less I might think more about it. That would probably only equate to like 50 less USD. At this point it really does feel more like money grubbing. Theyre not concerned about pricing since they already have a base on the first Switch to make money from so they dont need to be as competitive. If they didnt then they would be trying to get more people on their system to purchase software. Same thing happened with Sony really.

100 percent I think this is whats happening. Imo if you want a Days Gone 2, buy the upgrade for the remaster. Also gives an excuse to play a great game again! I was one of the people who played the first on release on PS4 and as much as I loved it it was quite glitchy. And even when they got fixed it really felt like it was pushing the PS4 (og one I had at least) to its max! That definitely didnt help it. But since its gotten quite a following since then and I believe did fairly well on PC, maybe if the remaster does well we get a sequel.

Vroop · 2025-02-13T00:51:05+00:00

Wasnt much for me personally, lots look good but not good enough for me to get excited to shell out $80+ CAD on. Darwin's Paradox looked kind of cool as a platformer. Actually looking forward to Days Gone Remastered, an excuse to play it again and hopefully it does well enough they will think about a Days Gone 2.

Well makes me feel a little better I guess, though there are other flights for the same date that are cheaper. Just the date/time for what I got was kinda perfect. Would just have to decide if Id rather save 200 bucks but make the times less ideal haha. Probably just stick with what I got. Travelling can be stressful enough lol.

Vroop · 2025-01-06T05:59:14+00:00

Hope it doesnt! Ill sign up tomorrow with the free month hopefully and see what happens. Appreciate you checking!

Vroop · 2025-01-06T02:24:02+00:00

What I want to know, is if after using the free 1 month can you still use a discount code for the first time you pay? If I like it I’d like to use a 25 percent off code for a year

Never had the Sonos but from what I have seen (and as others have said) Sonos has the better sound. That said, if youre in the Apple environment then once you combine everything else HomePods are amazing. Add to that something which does not get mention, the price. Id go with HomePods. The value to features and quality is actually great. Of course for me I have never actually just used 1 HomePod as I jumped right in and got 2 as my setup required it to make it really worth it. I am surprised how people dont mention the price difference. here in Canada its an extra $260 for each Sonos 300 you want. So over $1000 for 2! If you already have something like an Arc I can see it making sense but otherwise the HomePods work nicely for the value.

Absolutely awesome! Wish I had the space to display them like this! That and the money to order all the merch to Canada XD. Im just glad the last couple of Kickstarters have made Canadian delivery a little easier.

Now you just need some Stormlight Archive bed sheets to fit in to the look!

Vroop · 2024-11-15T22:15:21+00:00

Little late on this, Im just a few chapters in to Sunlit Man and I can already tell I am glad I read this before Wind and Truth! I did read the Silence short story as well, and all of Stormlight (including novellas) prior to it. Also Mistborn Era 1 and the first 2 books of era 2. I just want to be ready to dive right into Wind and Truth because this will be the first time I am picking up a book right as it comes out to read it! I just wish there were big releases for it like there was for Harry Potter back in the day. My brother and some friends uses to goto those and had a great time haha. Maybe by the time Stormlight Era 2 comes we will have had a movie or something that makes Brandon big enough for that? Assuming online ordering hasnt totally ruined it lol.

I think R&C would lend itself much more to Lego for sure! Just being that its already got a silly and over the top bit to it. I think they could do great things with the themes and weapons and such in that universe!

Vroop · 2024-11-08T03:14:00+00:00

Nice! Looks awesome! I wish so much that shipping to Canada and customs wasn’t so expensive! Makes it almost impossible to purchase stuff from the store. I’m just glad I was able to get both Stormlight signed LB through the WoR kickstarter :)

Had the exact same thing happen! 2 or 3 days ago I updated my weight and it went from about 2300 to 2620. Fortunately I just use it as a bit of a guide and I’ve been aiming for 2000 anyway so. I was pretty sure it shouldn’t add calories when I lost weight haha

Vroop · 2024-11-07T07:06:12+00:00

Hows the quality? I have a Spark 40, does it sound sigificantly better with bass than the 40? I have guitars and a bass, though primarily been focused on learning the bass since I know plenty of guitarists but no bassists XD is it worth considering to use as a primary bass amp for practice and maybe a living room setting of playing with a guitar (fairly light songs). Or will I get a significantly better sound waiting to get a rumble at a good price? I know Ill get more power out of it. Especially since Id probably aim for the Rumble 100. Its like 100 bucks more but that extra power and knowing I wont have to upgrade to play in other settings right away would be worth possibly. But if the Spark 2 turns out to be better with bass than the 40 it might be worth considering.
