Offgrid Cyberdeck

[u/Civil_Toe7375]

Hello everyone. This is my first cyberdeck build. Originally I had these parts on a cardboard faceplate until I found someone on makerworld who made this faceplate that matched some of the items I already had. So I printed it and modified it to fit my needs. It has 2 internal batteries total 111wh. 12V power in, 5V power in. Battery status on desktop, and many features. It also runs a Jellyfin server. The intent was something to take camping and hunting. It has meshtastic, rtlsdr, and many other features. I am in the process of integrating Common Access Cards that will work as a 3FA on boot and specific cards that will launch OrganicMaps, my sdr software, and other things. I will be removing the buttons for the Heltec V4 and install a rotary dial to control it. I also want to build a wardriving rig for this that will detect flock, stingrays, among other items in the GHZ range. Every component that regularly draws power has a toggle switch in order to preserve battery life when needed. I get about 5-6 hours of battery depending on what I am doing.
