Comment on [Discussion] Using my Steam deck as a mini PC ?
Grimpen@lemmy.ca 3 weeks agoOver two years with mine, battery aging isn’t noticeable. I’m pretty sure when plugged in and fully charged, the Deck runs off of external power. I don’t know if it shunts around the battery or not, but it certainly isn’t cycling the battery.
I mostly use my deck in a few fixed locations, so it’s mostly plugged in.
