Dbrand announced today that they put a halt on selling their Steam Deck case, Killswitch. This comes three days after going on sale. The reasoning for this was due to an issue that was discovered where the included magnetic kickstand was slowing down the Steam Deck’s fan. After more research they came to the conclusion that this was only effecting early Steam Deck unit’s that have the known loud Delta fan inside and not the current Huaying fan.
Dbrand also announced that they will be switching from a magnetic mount to a mechanical interlock system for the kickstand for their updated case and every single customer who purchased a magnetic Killswitch is getting a free replacement of both their case and kickstand.
