Well fuck. A lot of the OG decks are getting into battery replacement time, this is unfortunate if they really are discontinuing parts. I can’t blame valve to stop producing the older hardware but hopefully ifixit can work with them to line up reputable third party suppliers.
I’m confident that third-party batteries will come along in short order. I remember the early days when it took a week of research to find a “compatible” SSD replacement; a year later, scads of SKUs were being marketed as such, and at better prices.
