I spent some time in LTT forum the other day explaining some battery stuff to this guy, when I got this idea... As some of you may know, I am developing battery powered portable PC in S4M-C. It's self-contained: internal brick, pack charging, seamless switching on mains loss, and all that...

The brief: I’m a research scientist / engineer/ lecturer at a large university. I needed a compact, powerful workstation that I could stick in a backpack (i.e. brickless) and take between home and the office every day. It was intended for private as well as work tasks. Work tasks included...

I have a main system that I use but for gaming at my friends house I need to have something portable. I cannot decide which will benefit me more, a Hades Canyon NUC or building in the Dan A4. I'm planning on buying the new 2080 and if I build in the Dan then I will move my current 1080 over to...

So in my never ending itch to mess with portable systems, I decided I wanted to try out a NUC, and attempt to battery power it as cheaply, and easily as possible. I was waiting for newer, Kaby Lake R models to come out, however after finding they dropped the Thunderbolt 3 port, I opted for the...

UPDATE: Renders of the current version (45% finished): List of changes: - Size: This is now a 17.3 inch machine! So the width got reduced by 30 mm and depth by 20 mm which means less volume. To make this possible the inner layout had to be changed (pictures will follow when model is...

Proper post edit in the next few days. Just a bit giddy looking at that image above and couldn't resist not posting that, although I didn't want to spam the portable LCD thread -------- Parting out a List After poking a bit in the portable LCD thread, I started to read into the parts and...

This build is my second try at making the most portable and powerful PC that I can possibly make. With each build the system keeps getting smaller and smaller. The ultimate goal will be for it to become completely portable, i.e. battery powered, which is my next step. I ordered an HDPLEX 400W DC...
