    Don’t put a fast charger for overnight charge. It degrades the battery. I got my charger hooked up to my server’s usb port and it’s able to charge a 10000mha battery overnight at nearly 100% from low percents.

      When I plug my phone in at night, it slow chargers itself to 100% up until my first alarm.

      Battery degradation is caused by extreme temperatures right? There is no way a fast charger will make your phone warm enough to cause any meaningful damage. (80% confidence)

        Extreme temperatures AND high C (coulomb) rates. Not really a problem on most smart phones. But you’d have to charge from 0-100% in under 20 minutes (above 3 coulomb) for that to become a real problem

    I prefer it right in the middle, so there’s enough room for 2 hot laptops on each side 😁

        As long as “single” doesn’t stand for single-core, count me interested 😁

        I’m not necessarily feeling claustrophobic about it, depending on some details, but I am worried about laptops venting from the bottom.

          Well, I don’t compile stuff there, mostly movies/lectures and reading stuff, so they don’t really overheat. Well, except maybe t440p with 45w i7-4910mq, but with its battery discharge rate it is almost always docked anyways

    My beagle insists on being little spoon at night, so I hug him until he starts dreaming and jostles me awake. Then I make him move to my feet because I can’t stand how he moves when he dreams while I’m also trying to sleep lol

    This depends heavily on the laptop hardware and the activities, both of which you referenced.

    If you have a need for being surrounded by four laptops in bed, it seems likely you’re already exceeding standard cooling requirements in some direction.

    edit: Oops, I missed a space.

    I have an outlet right by the headboard and a cable long enough so I can be wherever I want in the bed, this doesn’t seem like an issue that exists for any other reason than people’s stupidity and consciously chosen problems. Even if you have an outlet on the other side of the room, just get an extension cable.
