    This.

    If they offer stuff like sealing the ductwork, or other energy saving stuff, get that done now because you'll never be able to do it again. Consider insulating bedroom walls for noise. Run network cable to every room. Since its a townhouse, male sure the firewall between units is being done correctly. Some idiot builders will put an electrical outlet in the same concrete block for both units, so you've effectively ruined the whole fire rating of the wall. Not to mention noise/smells.

    Why would you use a oem dp? They're incredibly bulky and hard to get in. My cobb slipped right in.

    Why did you picked curved? From everything I've read, they're only good for one tiny sweet spot seating position and anything off that isn't so good?

    Sure, but sometimes it's not that easy. I am often out at client sites or multiple client sites for a full day. I use my phone quite a bit, email, text, wifi hot spot, etc.
    My next phone(currently have a Nexus 5) will need a battery that hopefully lasts a full day without needing a charge.

    Good luck. The amount that you use your phone (for everyone on general). The battery won't keep up.

    Test results score well. Plus Dash charging is really interesting, so I'm not too worried

    Its simple. G4 with 3 batteries.
    when you pop in a fresh battery, charge the spent one. the cycle can go all day. Netflix 12+ hours easy.

    Yea, they work real well. I have a larger Anker one that I like, but its not super portable. That said, I work from home, so I am always near a charger

    I use one as well, it will charge my S5 from 15% to 90% in under and hour, quite impressive. I even use it in the car for the dashcam if we run out of usb plugs from other devices.

    My room is quite tiny and the curved back really help me fit the tv a little bit better in the corner. Maybe because I don't have much moving space but most of the angles I can look at the TV from is actually pretty good.
