Lately I started to encounter the rare cases of shorted capacitors on Raspberry Pi 5 - and I actually love it, because it's a quick and easy repair 😊.

I've finally sold off my extra, once-broken, Atari Jaguar console.

Originally purchased for $16, shipped, in 2001, when the world considered them trash. First console arrived DOA. Being almost worthless, seller just sent a second one that worked fine.

I kept around the broken console this whole time and finally fixed it back in June, replacing bulging capacitors and the blown chip (U38) with the help of Console5.

Yesterday, I took it in to the local game store and sold it to the owner who had a boxed Jaguar CD in need of a host console, selling it for a fairly large profit…that only comes out to about 2.6% ROI.

All the fallout of a cascade failure in my Amiga PSU. Either the main or driver transistor failed and shorted, causing the two resistors on the emitter to burn up, killing the other transistor, and burning out the fuse. I changed out the bulk cap while I was in there for good measure, but every time I thought I fixed it I found another component that had been damaged. At least it was confined to the primary side. My "poor man's variac" lightbulb got a workout for a while though, it was just shorting AC at the start. Not even sure it was worth the repair for a 25 watt supply, but it's fine now.

@RPiSpy this is a complete nonsense - if they were supporting and in order to reduce they are generating every day they’d publish the for the and sell the replacement parts for - , and chips to begin with.

Replaced my first HDMI port!!

And now I also have my first PlayStation 4!

This PS4 was given to me because it wouldn’t show on TV. It broke the cable I used to test it initially because the port was so mangled and pins were all bent up. And it was filthy inside.

Gave it a thorough clean. Desoldered the broken port and soldered in a new one. It took a couple tries to get all the surface mount pins to all connect and not bridge. With all the false positives, I’m now pretty quick at PS4 teardowns and rebuilds.

"There's yer problem right there…"

This is a PS4 I was given that appears to boot fine but actually broke the first HDMI cable I put in to test it. I can see why now, I guess. About half the pins are hovering in the middle of the port.

The removed motherboard of a PlaySation 4 with the HDMI port bent at a nasty angle, with many of the internal pins pulled off of the center post as well.
