I am having an issue with my @mntmn Pocket Reform it doesn't seem to want to charge and I have tried with my Pinepower as well as a Dell laptop charger I know works (65 Watt). It won't charge past 9% after dropping from the initial 13%

@mntmn so I tried draining the battery to recharge, and now it won't charge, power LED isn't even turning on

@mntmn flipped the switch on the side off an on now the light is on and it's charging with a Dell 65 watt charger. I'll see how it does in the morning

@mntmn so I woke up 7 hours later and MNT Pocket Reform is somehow only at 7% it’s been plugged in for 7 hours

@mntmn I’m going to try a full discharge and recharge a few times as I saw others say they needed to do it up to 5X. But oddly it occasionally showed as “plugged in” when it wasn’t on the laptop

@mntmn I did notice the MNT Pocket Reform is reporting different voltages on both batteries. They are as much as 0.3V different. One always drops way lower when it shuts off. I will still continue tinkering with full recharge and discharge. Maybe I need new batteries?
I am going to keep tinkering

Hi @mntmn is there any word on the final batches of the Pocket Reform? @crowdsupply still hasn’t send mine and it says it was estimated to ship the beginning of this month.

Finally got my Mastodon #Plushtodon in to help support Mastodon. I moved Detective Pikachu to the other side of my desk to fit him in.

Feeling frustrated with @crowdsupply and their lack of communication. My MNT Pocket Reform was supposed to ship last week after multiple delays, but it’s still listed as “shipping in November”…and now it’s December.

@mntmn has been great at communicating delays on their end, but at this point, it seems to be a Crowd Supply issue. What’s the deal?

Well this is a bummer @crowdsupply now says my @mntmn pocket reform won’t be here until end of November. Really upsetting as this means it will be after the trip I really could have used it in Europe this year.

I’m really disappointed in CS handling of the shipping communications because now I have to rush to figure out alternatives. MNT in comparison has been excellent in communication and setting reasonable expectation. Still excited just SUPER annoyed with CS

Still waiting for my @mntmn Pocket Reform, looks like @crowdsupply is still taking their sweet time. But the shipping estimate hasn't changed from September 30th and it's now October 1st. Still excited to get this device and use it daily as well as review it for my community, but man CS can be annoying sometimes

Kind of annoying I patiently have been waiting for my @mntmn Pocket Reform and @crowdsupply keeps pushing back the shipping date each week. One week at a time. I don't mind having to wait extra time, but the regular occurrence of hitting the day of shipping only for it to be pushed back another week, then repeat for 6 weeks now is more annoying than just saying it was pushed back a couple months in the first place. None the less super excited to finally get it in my hands hopefully soon.

To be clear this is not an issue with @mntmn but rather @crowdsupply . I get that these products can have delays. I just don't appreciate consistent push backs at a week of a time each. I know it's out of the hands of MNT at this time and more so an issue with Crowd Supply at this point in time.

@mntmn any word on the RK3588 for the MNT Pocket Reform? I'd love to get a RK3588 board that can do Wifi, Cellular Data, and still have a headphone connector. I'm thinking of when I was at @defcon and wanting to watch some talks over Twitch or Youtube when I didn't grab a space. Since I don't always trust public Wifi outside of my Qubes OS laptop.

Oh my God I just got the alert from @crowdsupply that my @mntmn Purple Pocket Reform is shipping and should be here end of June!

God I am so excited to get this in my hands and prep it for #DEFCON.

@mntmn we can buy the case and book separately if we bought a non-hyper version correct? I bought a non-hyper as I wanted it sooner rather than later

@mntmn @theawesomerandomness ooh I hope one of those are mine! Is it the ones with white switches? If so that's what I ordered.

I can't wait to use it for my regular work, during my Twitch streams, and as my device I read off of on my Tiktok's and upcoming youtube content.

I think I will unbox mine live on Twitch, you have no idea how excited I am. I now know how my dog's feel when I come home from work LOL.

@mntmn @mtm sweet I hope mine is one of the purple ones. I’m dying to get it ready for @defcon and review this for my twitch and TikTok audience.

@mntmn what’s the delay like? I’m curious now about using it on my twitch stream some day

@mntmn yay! I am so excited to take that with me to B Sides, DEFCON, and my trip to Portugal later this year.

I'm going to have to track down a EU compatible modem unless you know of any off hand you recommend as I ordered a US modem with my crowd supply order.

Would be cool if there was an international one, but I'm totally fine swapping modems in the airport as I carry my iFixit kit with me always anyway.
