  • Garage computer

    Starting my garage build and have a random
    question about the computer. It’s a garage build that needs to be easily movable between uses. I also live in a very high heat area (105-120 degrees) during summer.
    Has anyone ever just over the computer (no monitor) to the garage every time they use it? I know I could just do a laptop but I could get such a better deal doing desktop. I could leave all wires etc in place and then just plug it in when I’m going to use it.
    or if I could leave computer inside and just remote in to use mevo plus and TGC 2019.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks

    Is the garage attached? If so just run the wires through the wall to the adjacent room. That is what I do.

      Ya it is. That’s a thought. Thanks.
      Now trying to build one is the next step.

        My desktop sits inside with my GC2 and I just carry it in and out of the garage when its setup time. It's attached but I still don't like leaving that stuff in there.

        Keep in mind that wiring it through the wall as suggested may impact some of your choices down the line. Bluetooth, if your LM uses it, (or a dongle for a wireless keyboard, etc etc) might not penetrate well through the wall so you'd have to run additional extensions.

          I have my laptop in my house wired through the wall to my projector and skytrak. I have a Bluetooth remote that I grabbed off Amazon that works fine through the wall

            I leave mine in our garage year round. It probably doesn't get that hot here in Ohio, but it gets pretty hot in summer and cold in the winter and I haven't had any issues.

              Are you going to use it when it’s 105-120 in your garage? My garage gets to 80 and it is near too warm for me hit balls. Somehow more tolerable outside with some air. Maybe you have a couple months where computer can come in house reducing exposure and back n forth.
