This guy deserves all the best he's working hard and maintains a semblance of family life as well as work. We all appreciate the hard work that goes into these vids as it's one of a kind.
I wish I lived in Northridge. I did as a child and left after the earthquake and moved to New York. I am currently going to school for networking at almost 40. But I was a small engine tech for years and now I love soldering and fixing computers. I just stumbled on this channel a few weeks ago and I have watched hours of videos so far. Thank you for what y’all do. I would love to work in a place like that. Fix something new. Learn something new. Work hard. Smile harder. I need to buy some new supplies for my work station. I will support this channel anyway I can. Thank you.
What else is there to say, when you see a man who loves his job as much as his Family, working miracles (most of the time, anyway!) and bringing the talent and know-how, everyday! Keep rocking this channel, Alex We're here for it!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! 💯✌👍👏
I'm from 🇿🇦 and here most repair shops are run by these rude people who will share this kind of knowledge here you get a close up view and full explanation
Best part of your videos are your reactions when it works. The joy on your face lets me know that you love your work. I too get this feeling when I fix anything. :) You also "support" us with your knowledge. Thanks for your late nights your videos have helped me many times on many things. Rome was not built in a day.
I love what you say about growing the TH-cam channel in this video . Have a channel myself and have done now for a couple of years and only got 140 subscribers . However it’s just a hobby for me now I spent 40 years in the trade and I’m now doing something totally different looking after people with learning difficulties . the work you put into this channel is absolutely amazing and I love the way you work you would to the points and I am highly addicted to this channel now slowly getting through all of your videos . To the point now where I’ve actually stopped watching any other electronic channels just this one for me now . Keep up the amazing work and a big hello to your family and thank them for allowing you to offer us this content you are a true professional . Sorry for any spelling mistakes I suffer with dyslexia and use dictation . Also a big hello to big boss
I am from Morocco wich is on the other side of the Atlantic and I am watching your videos on a daily basis and learning a lot. I appreciate all the hard work and dedication. Your channel desrves a 1 million subscribers. Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.
Alex your business flourished not only because of us, the likes the donations buyin the stuff you sell etc etc. but I strongly believe your work ethic is other wordly I have learned a lot from you, lots of things besides the fixing/soldering side of this channel. one of the greatest lessons I have learned from you is "there is an appropiate method of doing all of these different things/situations" been watching since NRF was around 120ksubs Saludos desde Mexico.
You are good in fault finding but you are also excellent in customer management. you always telling your subscriber about honesty in work and it's also reflected in your work. God Bless you
No nudes, no braging, no shit talking, no click bait, no cringe moment, just a professional teaching and show us how his work done. I mean really? We don't deserve such a great content creator, thanks for the videos man
I've watch a lot of your videos and love learning from you. I have always loved repairing electronics and because of you I have gotten more interested in board level repair. I'm hoping in the next year to be able to get some of the equipment to start doing some. Hearing to stories on your videos has been really inspirational to me. Thank you and your family and keep up the good work.
I know what you mean about staying up late at night working hard. You are an inspiration. I’m 12 hours into my job, and don’t see my family all day cause of my commute. But i’m hopeful hard work will pay off.
Soon, your children will want to help you with your business because you are an awesome father and teacher.......things will get easier on you once your children get involved in the business
My friend I support you and your business. I appreciate who you are and what you say. I also like to see the smile on your face after a successful repair. I know there is some second guessing regarding your work and family. Please remember life is a balance we can’t do everything all of the time. We do the best we can. I’m certain that you are doing the best you can. You are a blessing to the people who learn from you both from the business side and the family side. This is what prompts us to support your business. Congratulations for your contributions to us
This channel is amazing i am learning things that are real ones. I've fixed a lot of hardware using this videos as tutorials. Keep your work on it you are doing great!
Thank you so much for your generosity and kind effort to help us to know something that we didn't and please keep roll on with your smile. Best of luck!
started watching your videos recently and really enjoyed them, please don't burn yourself by working too much... you have responsibilities but these responsibilities rely on your good health, mentally and physically. take care!
I know sh*t about electronics, and I'm not interested in repairing anything as I don't have the skills, but I really enjoy these videos, understanding how our devices work from their insides. Good job and thanks for your kindness and work ethics.
I spent many hours studying auto mechanics. I worked 30 years in the business. I rebuilt a motor in my dad's barn. Installed and started it first try. Dad's comment? "That was luck!" It takes much work to become LUCKY!
You have a relaxed voice and can explain something in a few words rather than some persons on other channels who use to much words. What i don't like on some channels is the voice en loudness of de person in the video, it's almost if he or she wants to sell me something. You're doing great 👍
Awesome to hear you aren't neglecting your family, working and the curse of Video editing, can let yourself go down that road for hours... keeping the balance can be tricky. keep up the awesome work. Love the content.
I appreciate hearing what is for sale on your site. I recently got some flux and some micro tweezers that turned out to be vastly superior to what I was previously using. The right tools make a huge difference. Also have learned a ton from watching these videos. Thank you!
I love to look of all you're experience. As a German, I like your clear English. I understand you all Time. You do make a great Job all day. I use your videos as lexions to learn.
As soon as I get the link and open it at the same time, always 3 comments already. Maybe it took time to reach this video in indian server 😂😂 Great work man, appreciate it.👍
Hard work always pays off. Great content always. I like when you have a difficult project and you have to step back and re visit later. A second look the next day usually pays off
There is no such thing as to much flux, without it solder does not flow and you will have very bad welds / dry joints. This was another great fix using experience created with the tester led to a very well educated guess towards the charging issue here so what you were saying in the other video with regards to the charger port breakout is very accurate.
no pain... no gain... the success.. needs patience... and hard work.... and steal time that should be dedicated to our love ones, thanks for the your advices, and share all content
It takes a lot of work. But having an awesome family motivating you makes it a lot easier. Congrats on that. PS there’s no such thing as too much flux.
Why are these videos so damn therapeutic?! I feel so relaxed watching your videos! It's a Saturday afternoon, I've got pizza and I'm just watching all your videos. So relaxing!
My guess is that this was a cascade failure-- the charging port shorting out damaged the M92. Lucky nothing else was damaged! :) Great troubleshooting, thank you for the video, very informational and useful!
Let me just add the business thingy, we always starts at zero, but the main thing when you are are high enough in the business its also about maintaning the business and perseverance and im amazed you can maintain a lot of task cheers to you sir☺️,
Thanks mate. Finally found a great channel with supurb videos and great content. You make this really easy to understand and I really enjoy your method of teaching. I'm sure this channel is going to flourish. I found your work when I was changing a board on a hard drive and looking to change the BIOS chip. Much appreciated. Subscribed.
love your happiness after each successfull repair :) also im kinda addicted to your videos, its super relaxing and always we have drama, if the device will get new life :)
JUST KEEP GOING MY FRIEND. Always watch your videos and ive learned a lot even tho being 8 years in this bussines i learn every day from you. Respect my friend. Allah protect you and your family
Bless you and your family, you are doing a great service to all of us but your family must come first. We will survive if you only upload a few videos per week. Thank you for showing us the correct way to do electronic repairs. All the best from Wales UK. 👍👍
Love your videos! I learn a lot with them. Thanks for what you do so I can learn and improove my business, thanks a lot colegue, greetz from Argentina!
I’m not that good at soldering, but I am big into fixing things myself. Fixed a few heating issues on my ps3, ps4 and my Alienware r5 but not chip replacements like this lol I enjoy your content, keep it up
Hi I like your personality and the way you describe the problems and the other thing is you are working in the same way as I do. I like your videos and sharing them with as many as friends of mine. Even right now I am watching your video Bless you.
I love the videos but there are always going to be people that do not appreciate the effort and time you put in. Remember that you can't satisfy everyone and you shouldn't even try to please everyone. As said I love this sort of videos. It keeps me sane at my job (sys admin but hardware tech at hearth). I have tried my luck at soldering SMD as well but with mixed results. I will keep watching for tips and tricks. Greetings from The Netherlands.
i am looking forward to using your shop for all of my bench needs. trust me i am going to be making a list and marking off what i can get my goal is to do it in one shipment :)
i really enjoy the gpu repairs as i can relate. the profit margin for repairing them can be so small, the parts are not readily available except from donors. i sometimes buy known broken gpus for repair, learning and resell.
I think you're using a perfect amount of flux. in some situations I would probably have used a little more than you did but your results speak for themselves.
Where do you make the most money? TH-cam or board repair? I would sacrifice viewing your videos to maybe once a week. Maybe two if one is playing with the kids. I missed mine while in the service. Don't miss yours.
For anyone doing repairs or reverse engineering on a board, watch out. Buried vias are vias that don't through the entire board but only go between some layers. This can get you with boards that have 6 or more layers as they might have what looks like a via that goes through the board but the via on top and the via on bottom are actually two different vias that don't go through every layer and don't connect. I know of one guy that has designed buried vias on a board just to mess with people reverse engineering his boards.
We appreciate your hard work, I am thinking of ordering some of that Low melt solder from your site. I usually use a bottom heater with a hot air station to remove similar components so I don't damage traces.
A tiny sliver of metal could easily get stuck inside those ports from use over time and be very difficult to see. This could indeed cause a intermittent short... continuity one second, no continuity the next. A shot of compressed air does wonders. And BTW, for a guy with your skills and knowledge, I'm amazed you don't use a desoldering station for larger connections. I purchased one for stuff I work on and wouldn't wanna be without it now. One of the best investments I've made, very nice to have.
After thousand's of repairs u still be happy with a smile in ur face when a repair is successfull. great
Same on Car repairers, my brother work as it since almost 20 years. Everytime a motor starts again he is happy. Thats how it have to be :)
🤣That's why I'm amazed. It's like when you first fix something in your life and have that smile
Solving a problem brings a sense of accomplishment.
awesome Work
Yes he’s amazing
He's working hard, even at these late hours of the night! Great content, your effort isn't going unnoticed :)

Best channel on YT about Repair. Others try you fix. The best of Polish.
I appreciate your dedication and sacrifice to upload these videos. They are great and very informative
So I can see people in the coments have been trying to tell you how to do your job :) and you do read them. Thumbs up for your patience!

Your open and analytical way of tackling dead boards simulates my workflow as a cardiologist. Dead is dead, but when not you try.
Do what you love, and you’ll never work another day in your life. Always a pleasure to watch your videos and listen to your words. Btw, BTF. 😁👍

Use as much Flux as you need
Flux is your best friend when soldering 👍

I can apply as much flux as i want. Nobody is paying for my flux. 😂😂👍👍
Not a gentle talk 😖

Good job dude. I will say success is not just hard work - it's smart work also... You need both :)
i really enjoy the gpu repairs as i can relate. the profit margin for repairing them can be so small, the parts are not readily available except from donors. i sometimes buy known broken gpus for repair, learning and resell.
I think you're using a perfect amount of flux. in some situations I would probably have used a little more than you did but your results speak for themselves.
I learned something today I was actually doubting you that it was the port but who knew I guess it could be thanx Alex!!!
Excellent method for replacing usb c port and smart choice to replace m92 of course because of your exprience.i like your working methods.thank you
Hey man I love your videos. How come you don't hire someone to edit the videos for you? Peace of mind and peace at home is priceless man.
Where do you make the most money? TH-cam or board repair? I would sacrifice viewing your videos to maybe once a week. Maybe two if one is playing with the kids. I missed mine while in the service. Don't miss yours.
Amazing, really perfect. The testboards are a good little helper.
Thx you for tht video. And thank you for your hard work.
Great job! You are still the king of playing games.

😍😍 great work. Keep it up.Thank you for your time!!
We appreciate your hard work, I am thinking of ordering some of that Low melt solder from your site. I usually use a bottom heater with a hot air station to remove similar components so I don't damage traces.
A tiny sliver of metal could easily get stuck inside those ports from use over time and be very difficult to see. This could indeed cause a intermittent short... continuity one second, no continuity the next. A shot of compressed air does wonders. And BTW, for a guy with your skills and knowledge, I'm amazed you don't use a desoldering station for larger connections. I purchased one for stuff I work on and wouldn't wanna be without it now. One of the best investments I've made, very nice to have.
New biggest fan here from the Philippines...
I love to learn what you are doing. 😄❤️
As usual, I came here for the fix, but stayed for the inspirational advice.
