Hey all, just wondering how the battery life is after you’ve had it for a while? I’m getting one soon and wondered if it would have a noticeable impact on the battery if it was on a dock for most of the time.

Cheers

      Passthrough input, or charge limiting? Charge limiting was added after release but that was a while ago.

            Oh man, thanks for linking this. I’m glad there’s someone out there writing plug-ins but Valve should really provide this out of box.

              Valve is doing a decent job of replacing plugins with stock functionality. Progress is a bit slower there than I would like, but many of my decky plugins have been partially or fully replaced.

              Some replaced plugins off the top of my head

              • Animation changer (although I still recommend the plugin for easier downloads of community boot videos)
              • Vibrant deck
              • Decky Recorder
              • Bluetooth (let you quickly reconnect to BT devices, but the QAM menu now lists BT devices directly)
              • Controller tools (let you see controller battery levels, which is now in QAM)
              • That plugin for managing what BLE devices would wake the deck

              and probably some more I’m probably forgetting.

                Yeah and the fact that they allow plugins in the first place is great. It’s a great way to gauge what’s in demand and how it could be implemented. Reminds me of games that allow modding/addons and often key features are later added officially.

            Legend, I have been looking for that for a while, and it is the cherry on top that it does not require booting into the uefi!
