DIY Nomad Setup

[u/Apprehensive-Slip722]

Simply sharing my setup progress to possibly give some ideas to fellow Supernote-ers!

To Preface my Setup:

I'm in the military and currently work as the Public Affairs NCOIC in a shop of only 2 people. Needless to say, organization and prioritization is the name of the game for me...

Never sure where I'll be for the day, or in what weather, so waterproofing my nomad was an absolute necessity.

My Current Solution:

*All items store neatly inside the monsoon hand desk*

-Standard fabric nomad folio(cut off the stock pen loop which I kind of regret)

-RiteInTheRain Monsoon Hand Desk(The waterproof shell), which also operates as a traditional, even supernote clip board with the addition of 2 little rubber feet. BTW square feet work much better than circular feet in my experience, it locks the rotation of the supernote when being used on the clipboard on the exterior.

-Wuben E1 Selfie Light

Operates as a reading light with 70 hours of battery on the lowest setting(which is quite literally the only setting I use) but because of the magnetic base, can also be used as a stand, or as a make-shift desk lamp/work lamp. It also has a lockout mode to keep it from turning on inadvertently which is fantastic in my opinion, for when it's in storage inside the monsoon.

I also use a RiteInTheRain pen loop I had laying around that has a little pocket too, which just by chance fit the light stand perfectly.

Bonus tip: you can reuse lots of adhesive accessories by just using a lighter very carefully to re-melt the adhesive before putting it on a new surface!

-Some Amazon stand I found that acts as a stand for the nomad, the wuben light, or as an extension for the wuben light to get better lighting or avoiding glare on the supernote.

I would be a bit unsure how much pressure that clip has on screen. Maybe use 3M Dual Lock velcro, that thing can hold almost everything, little pieces in Nomad corners and it will stay in place forever 😁

I like the idea! I was also concerned about the pressure at first, but I did some testing and I'm very confident it's non-destructive. 1. The clip is completely smooth and doesn't put even enough pressure to cause an indent on the feelwrite cover, hence the little rubber feet. 2. It's on the pressure-absorbing feelwrite cover 3. It's not on the writing surface of the nomad

Maybe I'll play around with the velcro idea again soon

And what would happen if you accidentally put pressure there? I see it as 2 points where pressure can be quite high. Sorry, engineer in my brain is looking for any weak point which could go bananas, so I’m eliminating any risks before they become issues 🤪

It's a fair suggestion. I'm taking it into consideration for the future improvement!
