Curious on peoples thoughts on the power button, I find it a bit fiddley and sometimes a bit awkward to press.
Has anyone adapted it or changed it out?
Not a big issue but one of those slightly annoying ones.
Cheers

Agreed! And the light is completely hidden under your finger so there’s no feedback. It definitely feels odd.
This little computer draws so little power at idle that I just leave it powered on.

Yeah, it’s a bit weird.
I agree. It works, but it doesn’t give much feedback when you press it. Not a big problem, just a small thing I’d like to see improved.

Agreed. I have this set to go to sleep so no harm no foul if I press accidentally. When it wakes up, I notice my metrics say it draws around 3W and likely less because I just woke the thing up. The power consumption on this device is supreme, better than my work laptop ironically.
i recently got my hands on this machine. the power pushbutton module is a tiny pcb and on it is a micro pushbutton about 3mm size. i did not examine it further but my guess is 1 could mod it and get 2 lead out for an external led. maybe even trigger external mosfet for an array of leds
