Looks like a rage quit scenario
I remember going to my friend Jamal's house in maybe 1990 and that day we were playing Contra... he died on the last boss in Contra Nes. He was so mad, he yanked the nes off the big wooden tv and started to jump on it. His Dad came downstairs and simply looked at him, then looked at me and said "Congratulations Mike, my son just donated all 50 of his Nintendo games to you" . Jamal started getting upset with his dad and his Dad said "No, I'm not going to bother hitting you. You've just shown me how much you hate video games and I promise you'll never own another video game again as long as you live in my house" ... Of course, this was 1990 ish so basically he could go to pretty much anyone's house on the block and play video games but he was never the same kid after that.
Or sabotage.
@@Haywood-JablomieFake story
Most likely the console was stolen, they did not bother unplugging things. Not the first, not the last one you will see...
What a coincidence! Exact same thing happened when i was visiting my friend Tyrone.
Bro I am a Mobile technician I like the way you work you keeps on talking and telling the fault and solutions and tracing the exact fault great God bless you bro ❤❤❤from India😊😊😊😊
oh no. sorry to hear about your mom. hope she recovers quickly. it was great meeting you today and sorry for interrupting this video! thanks for showing me around too. so cool to see where the magic happens! and you're not kidding, the nf sucker i bought from you works amazingly well! really really pleased i don't have to buy a desoldering gun!
Desoldering 'wands' are better than desoldering 'guns', while manual solder suckers are good for small, quick jobs but a real pain for large jobs. Overall I prefer the desoldering 'wand'.
I wish for a speedy recovery. Love your videos and quality work! ❤
Hi, I'm from France. I discovered your micro welding videos yesterday and this work is even more exciting when you learn through your videos. a simple man who simplifies complicated work with professionalism and passion. thanks for that✅
Our best wishes for your mom and an quick recovery.
Good luck to your mom for a speedy recovery!
Nice Fix! Since you don't work on a lot of older boards you may not see the use of an electric desoldering gun. The 14 and 28 Pin DIP chips on older boards are a great example of when these electric desoldering guns are extremely handy. Everyone does not work on HDMI connectors and ceramics caps 95% of the time.
As soon as he starts selling an NF.DesolderingGun, they'll become a must-have tool. 😜
100% if I see a use for them. Inventory always increasing as long as the tool makes sense.
@@NorthridgeFix
I know Alex. That's what I always notice for sure. You carry the most common sense tried and tested tools for the bench tools for sure. No doubt and I really like that. That's the reason I commented because I see facts on both sides. I see viewers could have a use for them, but I don't see that great of a benefit for your work bench though. For many of us it's just something to take up more space and not worth it. I do see how some may find them more helpful! Keep up the excellent repairs! 👍
@northridgefix I have a heated desoldering tool that works a lot like the sucker you have except it's heated. It does need to be flat on the board, but the plunger is exactly like yours. The heated part is like a soldering pencil with a hole in the middle. I used it to fix over 100 Commodore 64 computers back in the 80's. At that time, a professional desoldering station was $400 and the tool I got made by OK Tools back then was $30. I had used desoldering bulbs like you talked about several months ago and I agree that they weren't that great. There is one disadvantage to the heated desoldering tool I got. Because there is a thin metal tube that the solder goes through before it gets to the plunger part like yours has, the tube would gradually clog and I had to use the unclogging tool they supplied to clean it out. I'm thinking I might order yours and see if works without frequent cleaning. I see you use yours a lot, so it must hold up well under frequent use. I really appreciate that you use the tools you sell so we can see that they hold up under heavy use.
Alex, a trick I learned when I was an apprentice in the 80s. Put a neoprene sleeve over the solder sucker tip. It enhances suction at any angle, prolongs tip life and prevents pcb damage.
Yep. Silicone works well too, and might be easier to get than neoprene.
Yes. Cutting the original tip reduces the suction, albeit only slightly, and means you have to rotate the sucker each time. Silicone sleeve also allows an iron to be kept in place longer.
Speedy recovery for your mum🙏
Best Wishes to your Mother for a speedy recovery.
Thanks for all the videos you do.
It's all good when the Big Boss gives the thumbs up at the end.
Wish your mom a speedy recovery 🙏❤
Sorry to hear about your mother. I pray your mother recovers quickly. I love the mini pen. It works awesome.
Am sorry to hear that , I hope your Mom gets better soon 👍
Great vid. Hope your mother has a swift recovery. Godbless
Always cool to see! I'm honestly surprised you're using one of those suckers rather than one with the silicone tip. They work so much better. I have a Kotto and Engineer SS-02.
I hope little princess recovers soon.... I enjoy a lot when you upload 15+ minutes video because there's always too much to learn in your videos.... Much love from Pakistan.
A proper desoldering gun (with temp controlled tip) works well If you work on inverters or welders. The IGBT's, MOSFETS, capacitors and transformers are quite big, with lots of sonder. The correct tool for the correct job. I can't see you using an electrical solder gun under the microscope.
Ouch, hope your mom heals quickly (and completely).
@@pericaskaro4792*YT's STASI are screwing with the comments again and not only here. Cheers!*
Hi, sir I just subscribed You are so much fun to watch and very knowledgeable without question!
Hats off to the solder-sucker-angle-cutter-suggester. Good call 👌
Quite strange seeing the solder sucker. I used them at the start of my career but when I watched these videos it was mainly solder braid but now the sucker is getting used so much now
Do you ever suggest customers to check their USB / HDMI etc cables? It could be why there is so much damage to the sockets.
Excellent work!
Those poor original ports though, how did those suffer such a fate?
Guessing it found its way on the floor, off a table or something, while still plugged in, and got ripped out or something. Dog knocked over the table or who knows - lol. Just a guess.
Probably got wrecked by little kids trying to plug in the wrong cables.
Probably someone yanking the device with those cables connected, rage quit situation
The owner are a rough boy and gross motor skills
@@ApocDevTeam That seems most likely.
The Nf shucker is good and really useful but sometimes its damage the pad .
Best wishes to your mom for a quick and safe recovery.
A desoldering gun is invaluable when doing recaps of through hole components. Even for HDMI ports it would probably be better than using a solder sucker because I've seen you struggle several times with the eucker to clear through holes, and I promise you that you won't randomly knock components into the 9th dimension with a soldering gun. It pays for itself quickly.
It happens
Looking forward to seeing you physically
*Reticentfix* from Nigeria ❤️
About the desoldering gun, you're right and it takes up space too.
Good job mate 👍
GEçmiş olsun Alex . Allah acil şifalar versin hanımefendiye(your Mother)...
Hello and don't be tired, engineer Alex
As always, accurate and clean, even better than the factory...
Mr. Alex, I have a question, can you tell me how to test cq ceramic capacitors!?
Like ordinary capacitors or is there another method?
thank you very much
Goodness, hope your Mother recovers soon!
WE all do mistakes. Important is to admit, learn from and improve on performance. Wish your mother swift recovery.
Hello, I love your videos since TH-cam recommended your channel to me, I have subscribed, I have a question, what type of flux do you use? thank you
Every time I get one of these in for connector replacements, it's always the same story - it fell off the table/bench while plugged in and landed on the back. I'm guessing that's probably what happened to this one.
So big boss finally adjusted a bit to finish the last repair of the day? Awesome
You're welcome for the suggestion of cutting your sucker tip! 🙂
Sorry for your mom, she should heal up quickly.
Electric de-soldering machines are a better choice if one works on equipment with a majority of through hole components. Why? Because the tip only applies heat to the component being removed and removes solder completely. Also, there is less chance of overheating the trace and damaging it or knocking off components that are nearby. I use all three tools depending on the job: De-soldering braid, a quick solder sucker similar to yours or the de-soldering station when removing many through hole components that are close to each other. I also use your low melt solder when appropriate. Thanks for the video.
Great job. Perfect.
Your a legend! At your work
Hope your moms arm heals better than factory
Hope your mom gets well soon, that reminds me was there ever an update on your leg? I probably missed it.
Wow, that sucker is powerful to suck two holes! Gonna have to buy a new sucker now.
Hey, big salute to BIG BOSS !!!!
That "Oops!" 😲 was fixed. It's the mistakes that just about can't be! Kind of wonder how those ports got damaged like that! 🤔 Good to keep a cool head when things like that happen!
Hi Alex, you inspire us. I want to repair a hifi amplifier, need audio grade capacitors like ELNA,Nichicon and resistors etc. Where can i find these online? I am in Europe.
It's kids that usually destroy a ps5 or what ever console that has to be repaired like this. Awesome work as always.
Hello Alex can you tell me what temperature on the heat gun you used to solder pins on new HDMI port. Thank you.
Ten holes in ten seconds is better then Grimms's Seven at One Blow :-) - love your channel.
I have a family member who damages electronics in a similar way. If the connector doesn't go in they just keep pressing harder and harder until it does (or it breaks).
Best wishes for your mother.
"One stroke, two holes"
Sorry couldn't resist 😂😂
How hot air are you blowing? Is there a good range to use?
That's typical for mothers and grandmothers. Once my mother was supposed to take care of our children. But before we left we had some coffee and cake. While we sat there my mother told us that when baking the cake her pinky accidentally got into the kitchen mixer. She insisted that everything was okay and her pinky was fine. However, her finger was broken two times and needed two surgeries and she can can barley bend her finger today. Thank god it was "only" the pinky. So, never mess with kitchen mixers. They're really powerfull as are mothers and grandmothers!😄
Hey Alex, I always wondered, are there instances where a thermal cycle with hot air could improve conductivity on older boards that need a conditioning from flexing and a loose chip without a full reballing?
Yes.. it's called reflowing and can be done with the chip still fully installed. Usually regarded as sloppy and not a proper way to do the job but it can work.
BOSS is happy again !
What temperature do you have your heat gun at and your iron?
"One stroke, two holes" A legend.
what temp did you use to solder the hdmi port back in place?
I hope your mother recovers fast
Those ports look like Godzilla used the PS5.
Big Boss' Thumb Up = Quality Checked.
Good job Alex :)
Wow. The component actually got sucked by the suckered. 😮
I did a few like this too. The real question is, how does one treat a device so badly to damage ALL PORTS!?
So you know how the day one PS3 had capacitors with manufacturer noted life span of 5 years at 80°C?
What would you say about the reliability of a PS5? Would you say this console will last as long as a PS2?
seems this year everyone is getting ill, having accidents ect... my father is in hospital.. punchured lung, 4 broken ribs and on constant air he fell in office.. so many having accidents
Salam to mama Alex, she raised an honest and smart family! ❤❤ get well soon.
Do you find that the low melt solder clogs the sucker?
always playing with and improving you're products, maybe sell both tips for special application. it's a good and useful idea.
May I ask how your leg has healed now
What's that orange piece that you have on the syringe? 14:33
WRT the solder sucker ... where does the solder go and do you clean out the solder out of the sucker?
*Open it up, clean it out, shoot a bit of silicone lube on shaft, re-assemble.*
Make it better than factory ✌️💪
Can you please tell me what is reading on multimeter in diod mood which we can assume that short on caps resistances etc (how to find bad guy using a multimeter) please make tutorial video using multimeter and also mentioned which multimeter you use i try find similar video on your channel but I'm not able to find any so please make that video regards (Mr. Batter than factory)
I’m assuming maybe the ps5 fell down from angle with the cables and damaged those ports. Could have gone worse if they got ripped off. But great work as always! 💪
if ps5 fell down from angle with the cables damge complete port not just inner pins or plastic
The desoldering guns block really easily as well.
It baffles me how people breaks these ports. My consoles is almost 3 years old and I only touched hdmi port twice…
Things fall off tables. It's called gravity.
there is no perfection. we acknowledge.
"6 millions donor boards" Hahaha! You are great bro. Love your videos and laugh at the same time at your comments xD
Working on tiny electronics is like working as a surgeon.🧐Kids will always find away to destroy any if not all connections.
Do you ever replace laptop CPUs? I just watched the video of an alienware that entered bootloop after a mosfet replacement. If the sender gave you a cpu; would you replace it?
He doesn't replace CPU or GPU and advises against it. Not time efficient and requires specialized equipment that needs a lot of space.
Good to see your OK brother❤
I just watch for fun, but i learn all you know, like it is now.
Leave the sucker vertical and put the camera on an angle
Or I can put my bench at an angle.
@@NorthridgeFix I'm sorry , I am unfamiliar with your microscope.
I didn't realize it was too dificult to adjust it.
@@goldsluicetinkererDepth of field on the camera may be too shallow for that to work. It would probably have a time focusing across some boards, as he would be adjusting it to see either end (granted, if the board is fixed to bench).
@@ThisIS_Insane Makes sense.
Was just a Trump Bleach idea.
@@goldsluicetinkerer Watch a few "Just Rolled In" or "Customer States" videos to get more laughs. Some are real, some are setups and most are stunningly shocking, especially when you get a look at the big picture. Many are hilarious!
I always use rubber tip on the sucker. It won't be happen if you use the rubber tip.because there would be no vibration on your hand
does that nf sucker has smaller pointy tip option ?
I want to see Hussein Ali from 9-months ago arguing with Hussein Ali now about why you should and shouldn’t use solder suckers. To think it all started with a free pack-in sucker with purchase 😂
Why you shouldn't: Your website doesn't sell any.
Why you should: Your website now sells them.
I have a feeling we'll see the same thing happen with desoldering guns in a few months. 😄
Maybe they company that makes those suckers could make an attachment thats already at an angle so you don't have to cut those.
I send to you feedback about solder sucker and iam sure you will like it
Hello , what the temperature and Air You set ?
Damaged HDMI? User is too young. Excellent work.
use a silicone / rubber on that solder sucker tip ..
why does the solder not stick to the tweezers when you hold a component in place to cool? Noob here.
That unit feel from its perch😢
love that sucker very powerfull i'm so getting 1
probably the usb/hdmi cables they have at home are broken as well and need new cables. Those needs to be inspected as well.
It's Sunday. Big Boss says take a day off!
Recently I've had a problem with the ports I'm using. When I plug the HDMI cord into the port the picture goes in and out. I pulled the board again and examined the port under the microscope and everything looked perfect. I probed every pin and not a single bridge. What I noticed is when I push the HDMI plug firmly into the port pressing it stiffly against the back of the port it will display but if I bump the plug or touch the cord, the picture cuts out. I've done a few hundred PS5s and I've never had this problem before. I ordered some HDMI ports from your site and I'm hoping that it was just a bad port. Have you ever experienced anything like this with a port replacement before?
It could be a bad port, but I'd test with a different cable first
When you say "the ports", you mean the problem happens with multiple ports? In that case, it's either the connector on the cord (have your tried different cords, from different manufacturers?) or the ports themselves were probably made with the wrong tolerances (a lot of sellers on eBay are basically selling factory rejects that didn't pass QC).
Could also be you have a cold joint on one of the pins. Try reflowing that might work.
The solder sucker does the impossible from a golf perspective: two holes in one (One stroke two holes)
Sorry to hear about your mom. May Allah cure her. Tc buddy
Far out, were they jackhammering those plugs in. Poor PS5, that thing needs a military style burial. We thank you for your service PS5.
