    Main concern I would have would be thermals while charging. I’ve always avoided charging my deck in the default case because I didn’t want it to heat up too much.

      I’d think, at least for the existing Steam Decks, it would involve some kind of internal modification as well since they don’t do charging like this.

    Submitting a patent isn’t a leak. You’ll know it will be picked up by others, that’s a price you pay for patenting.

      Yep.

      China lurks patent and places like kickstarter for things to make and sell.

      That’s besides taking the machinery for contracted work and running the machines with a second shift and cheaper parts…

      I hate it.

    Unless the case will work with their next iteration, I’m fine with a multipurpose battery bank and backpack.

    I love valve and steam but how the hell are you getting a patent for “case that charges device inside of it”?
