Hi guys! So, yeah…Which games are good for a nice gaming session while on a flight? Last time I played one of the newer Tomb Raider games, and while performance was good, it decked (heh) the battery in less than 1h… So, while I like these too, if the flight doesn’t have a socket under the seat I might want to play games that don’t kill the battery immediately. What’s your best/most addictive Deck games? Also, after the whole big N mess…how’s the Switch emulation these days?
You can call me a shill,
But I just get an Anker Prime 27,650mAh battery bank because it supports 140w PD.
Lasts my wife and myself a 4 hours flight with maybe 30% left over.
I got it because it can charge my laptop as well.
Steam deck is 40Whr and the battery is nearly 100Whr.
So you’ll get 2.5 times longer playing time with it.
I have a small 10,000mAh power bank too, but given some countries restrictions, I refuse to travel with anything bigger. Some picky countries will take away (confiscate) anything bigger than 10k mAh. I already lost a 13,000mAh and another 15,000mAh on this mistake, on separate trips. This 10,000mAh power bank does provide some additional juice, but gets killed pretty fast.
Woah, which countries?
I’ve traveled quite a lot and no one has even bothered me about my size.
Same here (well, different model–26k and 87W–but same strategy). Even just as a backup in case of unexpected travel hiccups, a large (airline approved) PD-capable battery back is very handy to have. I never worry about finding an outlet in an aircraft or airport, and I’ve spent my fair share of time stranded in transit.
I’ve got a similar battery bank. It’ll turn 4 hours of capability into 12, with no issues.
Mine is a veektomx MAX65W. 20,000mah.
Just be aware of capacities. The limit is either 100Wh or 160Wh depending on the airline. That works out at 27,000mah or 43,250mah respectively. Most power banks are below this, but not all.
