I’m praying that it’s only 2 hours for you lol. I had to do it over the summer and spent 8 hours the first day then had to come back again the 2nd day for 4 hours. Still grateful I didn’t get picked for the trial at least

I have the exact same battery. Extends my play time by a good 2-3 hours.

That battery bank is great! Been using it for the Deck ( & other things) for over a Year now. Super solid, I've dropped it countless times onto a hardwood floor and haven't had any issues.

Security will be even more confused when they wonder why on earth you want to blow up the room of the case you were assigned when the case is just a civil dispute over a slice of bread

Are you sure you can even do that? Won’t they say “Nope nope. Pay attention. Watch.” while snapping their fingers and pointing.

That battery pack looks like it could launch a missile, not power a gaming device. Good luck convincing security it's just for gaming.

Was prepared with my Steam Deck and everything and when I called the night before to confirm the time they said I didn't need to come in and I was good for the next 2 years.

Already called off though so I just played at home lmao

I’m 48 and never been summoned. At this point I don’t think they will ever call my number. I am US and registered to vote.

Smart! I did this as well for jury duty, no problems getting through security and blew through 3 hours of sitting and waiting by playing Red Dead 2 in my own little world. This thing has paid for itself 10 times over

How? You can’t even bring your phone in, let alone a handheld device.

Um, not sure if it's too late, but where I'm at you spend some time in the waiting area before they take you into the court room for selection: they usually instruct you to leave behind anything larger than a cell phone in the (unattended) room. The place I go to they offer to lock up electronics in their office, but all places may not.

So... yeah. I wouldn't take something expensive to jury duty.
