Just something to be aware of is that cheep Chinese fuses may not blow at the property had some automotive fuses from an alternative Chinese market and the 7a fuses didn't blow till 30a when I tested but another order from another supplier on the same platform was fine so now always test a few to make sure they work properly
6:14 I believe you meant to say that you hope the fuses DO blow. Louis Rossman often talks about a seller of fuses on Amazon that seem to have a problem with not blowing when they should.
Good choice on the Qanba stick. I've got 3 of the 8bitdo sticks and ordered 3 sets of alternate Qanba buttons (x8) for £16.50 each, absolute bargain - Plus they are mechanical keyboard switch type. Disgusted as I paid £6 per button (£48!) for Crown mechanical arcade buttons from Arcadeworld (which the shop has strangely disappeared) - So effectively 3 sets of Qanba mechanicals for the price of 1 set of Crown mechanical buttons from UK. Mental. Ordered the same style ball as well. I admire your blue ball, but I had to go to the next level and get mine hammered purple, ooooooooo errrrrrrrr.
@@MarkFixesStuff Ahhh you've given away your surprise as I don't think you mentioned that project in the video - I'll keep it super secret. Think you are probably wise to make a new controller for the Coleco though, that original looks unwieldy. 3D printing or making out of a nice bit of wood? I saw your stick on Aliexpress, was on sale for £20 (original price was £33'ish), I was tempted to pick it up and drop in on the 8bitdo, but if I remember correct I wasn't 100% on the depth for fitting, plus my gates weren't compatible (I just put octagonal in everything through habit) - The latter is a stupid reason I know. You can get 2lb, 4lb etc springs if you find it too light. Simple install as well. I've got 4lb springs in 2 of mine but only because they have metal bat tops, was recommended by the manufacturer to counteract the weight. Joystick wise I went the cheap/quick/easy way of just replacing the microswitches on the board, they just drop in/direct replacements/no soldering - 1 has Omron, 1 has cherry and the other has Sanwa. You can get different size actuators (plastic bit bottom of stick at the c-clip) but that's getting into the weeds at that point. Pretty sure I changed 1 of mine, but couldn't tell you which one, so that shows how little difference it actually makes. Dunno how you don't like the clicky-ness 😲 Its like sacrilegious. I had blue keyboard microswitches in those Crown buttons previous, you would have cried at the excessive volume of the click
@@googleboughtmee Yeah, I am not too sure what happened to them as i've used them quite a few times over the years. I first noticed they closed about 3-4 months ago, website was just gone. I've not looked into it myself, so not sure what happened to them. They were one of the few retailers in the UK I found for Crown mechanical buttons at a semi reasonable price (£6 a button!), albeit I have now moved over to Qanba mechanical (wayyyyy cheaper, actually a better feel and more colour options). If Mark is bothered by the noise (given he chose the silent stick), the Qanba mechanicals come with a silencing pad, can be removed if you want them louder.
That reminded me I want to make a stick to replace my Capcom Street Fighter 4 one, as it's just too bulky for me, maybe slap together a smaller, less cumbersome piece of hardware. I've been thinking of going for a bright red end for my lever, though.

Not a bad haul. I only shopped Temu once, about a year ago, and I have to say that the products I bought were as described, and reasonably priced. On the flip side, I’ve heard horror stories, so I guess it’s a crap shoot.
I don't believe Temu have a Right to Reply within UK law. From what I have read in the past, it's a law that applies to media outlets and publishers, not individuals. I'm sure it was just easier to do it this way and get a video out of it, but don't let these bullies silence your speech, Mark. Enjoyed the vid BTW 😅
Looks like a bribe from Temu imo. I’d have just deleted the video if absolutely necessary rather than promote them. Buy cheap, buy twice are the words I live by!😂
@@neuro_davinci It’s a sponsored video. To be fair they have some pretty nice stuff now if you don’t expect the world for 69p. There’s the same levels of tat on there that you find on other market places but the more reputable sellers are seemingly on board with them now. No one can force me to do anything. I thought it would be interesting to take up the offer.
@@MarkFixesStuffI think this is great. It’s informative and helpful. It shows you can get decent stuff if you know and are careful about what you are looking for. Bonus, you got a budget from them, so free stuff!
@@MarkFixesStuff I've bought stuff from Temu and it's fine, nothing wrong with doing a sponsored video. I wasn't criticizing, just didn't like the thought of them strong arming you into it with legal action. Seems like you wanted to do it though, and I enjoyed the video, so all 's good 👍
@@jasejj I’ve found quite a few things. The selection has got a lot better of late. When it started it was pretty low quality and the electronics stuff was few and far between. Now more sellers are on it.
