Building a Home Office CHARGING WALL 

Amazing! So glad to hear it arrived and looks good. This is my first time bringing a product to the real world, 🥲 I really appreciate the support!

I came here to say the same thing. The price seems entirely reasonable to keep you organized and productive.

Hey I really appreciate this comment. RU-vid’s algorithm tends to steer me towards only reviewing gadgets, and I’m always a bit nervous to make videos about projects like these, so I’m really glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks man! I like that idea. Maybe after I get used to where I plug everything labels will "complete the look" lol.

Ahh a backplate… that is a great idea. Would have made cable running much easier! I also like the idea of doing a cabinet, maybe something like a tool bench with those slide drawers with integrated charging.

Glad you enjoyed it and good luck on your project! I will say the one thing about the charging hubs that show the voltage is that I realized some of my USB cables are awful, and were not delivering the power they should have been. That is a benefit I didn’t have time to include in the video.

@@WorkFromHype That is an interesting discovery by being able to see the voltages on the USB charger. I'll be looking out for one that can display voltages and maybe even the current myself. I've never tested the voltages on USB cables myself but I have experienced changing cables from crappy to better quality ones improving charge times and/or not randomly disconnecting from a computer. Seems like pretty much any awful cable is prone to similar issues of voltage/signal dropoff due to poor continuity of power. For video cables like HDMI, poor quality ones might use copper coated aluminum (or even purely aluminum) can maybe max out around 1080p60 and are prone to dropping out beyond that, but cables with more pure copper makes 4k60 and even higher bandwidth signals possible. Sinilarly too long of a cable also has a same issue due to voltage drop off. An example for this I can think of are Ethernet cables where a longer run results in a lower maximum speed. CAT 6 is rated for 1 Gigabit (1Gbps) at 100m, while CAT 6a is rated for 10 Gigabits (10Gbps) at 100m, but CAT6 can be made to work at 10 Gigabits though with a significantly cable at 55m or so. Knowing those made me prefer going with a bit shorter, thicker, and better quality cables but they can get quite expensive. For not that mission critical uses like sending Ethernet to a WiFi router to a part of the house I'm not typically at I'm fine compromising a bit.

Thanks for watching! The Skadis seems like it would work great for this.

Should have put an air purifier in the budget lol

Yeah I used a few camera angles which made it seem like the cables are hanging off the wall, but in real life, they really disappear into the leaves. The other thing is I didn’t want to actually put electrical wire behind the live wall panels. Even though there’s little fire risk, I didn’t want the cables to become inaccessible. Totally fair feedback though!

Wow, you’re right that really does look like a Pi Case I actually own haha. But no, that’s actually the power supply for the lights. Didn’t know where else to stick it lol.

Good question! So far I've had no issues because the batteries "click" into place. They could probably charge upside down because there is a mechanism that holds them in place. That said, these are a budget set of Sony camera batteries. If they were expensive I'd probably have the same concerns you did, but so far no issues.

Thanks for the heads up! Premiere Pro auto updated a I lost some presets… 😑 I’ll see if I can fix it.

I'm at 60/150 volume and it's fine to my ears, but I also know pretty much no 2 listening setups are the same without active attempts at duplication.

@@WorkFromHypeThanks! Also, do you have a hot take on the new adobe license that gives them rights to your work?
