    Thankyou very much, I run a shop here in Liverpool, UK. Been repairing since I was nine, now 47 years old and finally dipped my toes into board repair. One man business, Done my first USB C and HDMI repair successfully after watching your videos for the last year, will be adding all your skills to my own. Thanks from the heart for all the tutorials. I'm sure with practice ill be busy for another 15 years....

    What temperature and air flow do you typically use on your hot air station? I know the videos might be sped up slightly but you always seem to be able to de-solder / solder very quickly. Love the videos and hope you're doing well.

      you´re doing great work with all these devices but tbh i sometimes miss some ending when you say that you might made follow up when you have to wait for some part you don´t have at stock to arrive just to know if the device was fixed after all or there was some other issue that cause it to be "no fix"

    Why don’t customers come clean about the repair attempt and the USB connector having been attempted to repair. Do they think you wont know. Or did a previous repair shop spin him a tale of what they did???. Either way its a pain.

    Hello alex, I am too taking the knowledge you are sharing with us and started working on components. I have a question. Is there any scenario in which a capacitor will beep on both ends on diode mode and be ok? Does that mean the cap is shorted to ground and something is bad? Thanks for what you do.
