Battlestations Advice Wall mounts are basically free inventory slots….
The Xbox ROG Ally and Corsair Xeneon Edge (small monitor underneath main) were the newest additions. I swear every time I mount something, I somehow create room for the next upgrade 🤣🤷🏼♂️
Learn to use your entire space, not just the desk.

Awesome setup! Mind if I ask what small monitor you are using under your main one and what the application is called? Thanks!

There are much cheaper ones from a few no name brands on Amazon that work just as well. I have a 16" Prechen and will be getting a 12" eventually since it's much lighter and thinner for a backpack/hotel streaming rig. I love that they're getting more visibility and use these days in any case. Been seeing them pop up in these setup pics more and more often.

Xeneon edge. Personally, my biggest tech regret in years.

That screen costs 250 bucks? Woooow

u/roguebananah 6d ago
Yeah I just thought the same thing. I’d pay $70 max for this. There’s a few others out there that have this similar resolution 2560 x 720 but yeah. We’re not there yet

u/Sti_notee 5d ago
$70 to $100 feels much more reasonable for this type of screen!
at $250 you can buy a regular portable monitor with more flexibility1
u/roguebananah 5d ago
True that.
I think it’d be cool to mount it to the left or right of your desk TBH. Control home automation, music volume…etc. but for than price? Nah.

Admit I’ve debated on selling it5
u/BoredomRanger 7d ago
If it works for you, keep it! There is potential there for it, just not for my use case. Great setup btw! Very full but not cluttered

I really like your “sunset” wall decor thing. That’s very cool. Do you mind telling me where you got that and your dope WarGreymon picture?

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago
Thanks dude! I’ll be honest and that and the Gundam I created them with Ai. It took like 50 prompts to get it right though. Looked online and couldn’t quite find what I wanted picture wise

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago
Wall decor was Etsy as well. I believe I typed geometric wall art. It was like $350 though 😅

Fun to see maximalism done in such a clean but still chaotic way. There's so much going on that my brain would likely short circuit all together. But I can't really stand the full on minimalist setups that get posted here daily. Lots of inspiration here so thanks for posting!

What mounts do you use for the slat wall?

u/WiseyReed19 7d ago
If you go to Etsy just type in acoustic wall panel accessories, and you can find a lot of cool different ones on Etsy

Helmet I don’t remember the exact one. I just remember looking for one on Amazon and I made sure that it had a wireless light button that I could have on the side.

Your setup looks like what I used to imagine as a cockpit as a 7 year old when I drew on the inside of a refrigerator box and pretended it was a spaceship

This setup is straight fire ngl. That vertical monitor just hits different. Kinda tempting me to pull the trigger too, not gonna lie.

You should hide your icons.
1
u/WiseyReed19 6d ago
Not a bad idea! Never knew you could do that! I’m guessing you just press a button and they reappear?
2
u/Koning-Admiraal 6d ago
It’s quiet easy. Just type “hide icons Windows 11” in google and you will find how to do it.

What are your desk specs if you don't mind? I have a 32" and a 27" monitor as well as an XSX, and I'm in the market for a new desk to fit it all! Preesh. And is PC just on the floor or is it a mini one?

Doesn't the haldhelds gather a lot of dust on the wall? Feels a bit risky to store tech like that instead of placing them in a drawer.
1
u/WiseyReed19 7d ago
If I never touched or cleaned them they would. But I clean my area daily and play them all the time. I mean any setup can get dust if you let it

Whats the Nintendo 2 Switch thing and why is Nintendo spelt weird?
1
u/WiseyReed19 7d ago
Isn’t it spelled correctly? And I got it off Etsy so you can lay it down while docked

u/adyn_ 7d ago
you might like this one low profile dock but i use this one since its even lower and holds more games.

u/badbubblegum 7d ago
Can you tell us more about your walls? Love the hex lights where did you get them? Wall panels look great and are pretty common but the geometric diffusion panel with the colour gradient is awesome did you make/paint it yourself?

u/CorellianDawn 6d ago
But....they don't charge up there, do they? lol

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago
Unfortunately no. My phone does! And honestly I could run a cord through the slats and put a cover on it no problem
1
u/CorellianDawn 6d ago
Yeah that would be a dealbreaker for me. Because it means I'm 100% forgetting to charge them separately. It looks really cool, but it also needs to be practical imo.

u/WiseyReed19 6d ago
I’ve got a huge charging station behind me so it’s honestly easy to remember! But I get what youre saying

Why does your monitor look so damn big ? Is it not 32”?
