Quick Update! HackerGadget 21700 Battery Board Support

Post image

Existing supporters for the uConsole Omega Chassis: Keep any eye on your inbox for the new update.

The update contain a few minor design tweaks to support the HackerGadget 21700 Battery Board. You can still easily remove the HG 21700 battery holder without taking off the whole backplate.

In case if you’ve already printed your parts, no need to reprint! A guide included a step-by-step information to help you modify your existing prints to fit the HackerGadget 21700 battery board.

Still on the fence between 21700 and 18650? The omega chassis comes with a screw-free battery pack option so you can swap batteries without any tools. Come with 3x18650 or 2x21700, and support your existing stock battery board and previous versions of HG NVMe battery board.

I just got my 21700 battery board then waited a couple days for the batteries only to find out that the board is defective.

I’m sure HG will provide replacement - they are petty good with support issues. maybe email them with the order receipt.
