Backpack-Mounted Desktop Computers

The eBlaztr is a Desktop Tower with a Portable Design

— August 24, 2022 — Tech
'eBlaztr' is a new startup creating a portable computer tower by the same name. eBlaztr's founder stated that he sought to create this product because he was tired of the compromises associated with gaming laptops, including high prices, cooling problems, and weak performance. The eBlaztr answers this problem by offering full modularity and customizability in a portable frame.

Rather than functioning like a laptop itself, the eBlaztr functions more like a conveniently portable desktop. This is to say that the entire computer is designed to be fit into a lightweight, carriable case that is mounted conveniently on a backpack. Additionally, this case has a built-in monitor, meaning the user only needs to bring a power cable to plug the PC into a wall for it to operate.

The eBlaztr is a fully 3D-printed design with injection molded parts that make it easy to add additional accessories to from users with access to 3D printers. Customers are able to preorder the eBlaztr now with a chance at getting an early copy to try out. The case on its own retails for $349 USD, while customers can purchase a fully-equipped computer for $2,345 USD, or the 'eBlaztr Beast' for $7,200 USD.
