“Why not spend two months designing, building, and refining a laptop myself instead of just hitting up Best Buy for a new laptop that’s ready to go?”
Two months of Blender modeling, a 300W boost/buck converter and a 24v Kobalt power tool battery, all to skip a trip to Best Buy. A 4ah pack runs past 4 hours, and the case fits the 340mm printer bed with less than 2mm to spare. The battery swaps, but not hot. It charges on the same charger as a drill.
