Surface Pro 4 Battery Bloat Expansion Screen Distortion Woes & Bloated Cover
12Had battery bloat on the Surface Pro 4 I use which has kept me offline for a couple of months, so thought I'd go through what it looks like, what I did to fix it (!!), and realised it's a good excuse to show the kit I use to put the channel videos together.

Surface Pro 4 - Battery Bloat
Battery bloat which was pushing out the screen and basically dangerous and causing it to run like a toaster and aeroplane
Microsoft Surface Doc Station - external drives, external monitor, microphone believe it or not (USB), hardwired to router
Leather effect cover - so I can get me retro stickers on there and share the love in coffee shops and vape shops
Onedrive and Carbonite
External drive
Second monitor - AOC 21.5" LED
Adobe Creative Cloud
Adobe Rush (originally started off slowly, and figured could expand into Premiere Pro if needed, but really, don't need it)
Canvaa
MotionArray
ZX Spectrum Emulators
Spectaculator
Fuse - better for sound reproduction
Commodore Emulators
C64 Forever
Amiga Forever
Good for cataloging games/demos but for screen capture I use the underlying emulator .exes (WinUAE and Vice)
ZX Spectrum Next, pi Accelerated - when I finally open the box!
Open Broadcaster System - good for broadcasting streams of emulators
SteamYard - not used it yet, but it's not so good for streaming games, more for a chat show, easily stream to more than one destination, add and remove guests
White board, well, cos it's a whiteboard, and we all love whiteboards
Vape Kits
Innokin Endura T18E
Leaf Battery - obligatory retro computer stickers, lovely feeling on fingers and a customisable vape box screen, commodore logo!!!
Aquavape Black Jack juice
Various T-Shirts
C64 Tshirts, Deltic Tshirt, Guns N Roses Tshirts, TBBT Tshirt
Various hats and balaclavas
Pork pie (black) hat and one that looks like I'm going to do something dodgy.
Various Sunglasses
Poker face black ones and wooden colour with blue lenses
Yorkshire Tea - well, OF COURSE
Buxton Mineral Water - carbonated, so that I'm not drinking too many sugar filled fizzy drinks
Real Ale (off camera - well, so far) - Brewdog, Hogs Back Brewery, Neepsend and Kelham Island Brewery (when in Sheffield)
Beard - off Amazon, can't find the link
