Wow, the end result is stunning!

Great project! Stunning results. Do you have the schematic available? Would like to see the ESP32 part.

Are gerbers, bom, etc available? Wouldn't mind building some of these for next year. Nice work!

Thank you for sharing your project, Steve. Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🎄🎄

Do you have a link for the 2 pin T's and cables? I used the same description as shown and get nothing like those.

It was a JOY watching you solder each and every pin of the ESP.. This is going onto my resume. Just saying Thank you for the video. You RoCk!

wow steve these are fantastic. is there any way i can order 50? these would be perfect for my garden!

Very festive

Wow, very very nice!!! Merry Christmas to you and everyone else too. 🙂 🎄🎅🌟

Awesome project. How much would it cost to Build this project?

Very nice project Steve, the final result is great!

Another amazing Xmas project. This one is truly spectacular. Thanks for sharing. Merry Xmas!

You made a really nice looking set of festive decorations! Have you though of comparing notes with David Plummer @DavesGarage about driving strings of addressable LEDs? He seems very passionate about the topic and he worked extensively on it.

It's great when you can build something yourself and eliminate the "planned obsolescence" or "designed to a price point" that plagues any consumer products you can buy. Plus, gain the benefit of being able to configure it exactly to your own liking. Great job.

Great lighting effect. I made some a few years back but used 5050 LEDs onto a 50cm PCB they looked ok as I dint want double sided effect 👍

Awesome I've been thinking about this for years. Nicley executed as usual steve

If you had enough of these and hung them basically touching each other is it possible to turn it into some sort of LED matrix display, with scrolling text etc.

love it! thanks for sharing

A few years ago I decided to do the same thing, as the Chinese ones last a winter at best, mine were based around the 328P-AU MCUs when they were about a quid each ! suffice to say the price went mental and they never got past KICAD. Awesome design and a Merry Christmas to you and yours !

Bought a old made in USA Metcal mx thing is a tank for sure now I wouldn’t buy anything else got desolder gun also for less than 9000 new with enough left over to buy extras

I have a black box one switch on/off to solder anything with one word on it Metcal once you use one you know the difference

Resonators definitely don't like ultrasonic cleaning. We have made a couple of thousand identical products. We get resonator failures with ultrasound. We have moved to using our ultrasonic as a heated bath - no ultrasound.

Always makes me roll my eyes how those with golden ears think butchering something designed by people who know what they're doing with mods recommended by those without a clue will improve a product. I'm surprised you didn't take the opportunity to fit a gold-plated mains plug, as these have been "proven" to improve the sound so many times in the audiophool world...

Hard functions

Really enjoyed this Steve - like others I am enjoying the repair videos! Thanks.

So I just purchased one of these right before learning about the T413. I am seriously considering returning the T320 when it arrives, or maybe re selling because I am not confident that attempting a return through ali express is wise. Would you go through the trouble to get the T413 over this? Seems like they are a little hard to come by in a 110v configuration. *edit, canceled the order and bought a T420d with 2 handpieces.

Well people would be wise to avoid buying these on the second hand market. Using that glue was plain stupid. Board damage has been known for decades now from glue gone conductive. Not having any sort of output protection also is being cheap.

I am going out to buy a Isolation Transformer And VARIAC) can you give me the best model to buy in the uk I am going to be testing av amplifiers and receivers which models would you recommend to buy thanks mark

After few uses soldering iron screen black, no response :(

I would've super glued that pad down because there is not much holding the cap on one side, ie, don't drop it - lol -.

@12:41 Did smd glue dissolved solder mask?

this is off putting I am getting 30 up on bt now I want higher upload so maybe be fiber might be better now for me though seems to be an old video

Will this work with solder APA101 2020 diodes? Those require a precise reflow curve.

What is the sense of voice control?the most infortant is the function of heating and air..ycs r1 pro is better than this quick specially for REMOVING CPU

I use stainless wool the type that is super sharp on the edges. I learned that back in 2011 and was told to never use the wet sponge and leave the crud and tin on the tip when placing it in the holder. I have used Weller irons for 30 years and my iron is about 40 years old (got it used). Since that day I have not thrown away one single tip they just last.

What does a modem need a gps receiver for ?

Excellent video, thanks. Please do more repair videos! I particularly like classic hifi and valve amps, so perhaps you could buy some spares/repairs kit on the website and do them up for resale?

watched the others just click through things fast as hell , didn't show much, you at least showed how it's actually used to do a repair, thank you, it helped a lot the other revues were uselss

Chinese made junk

Thank you

Thanks for putting this together. I was curious as to what was inside the unit, but now don't have any need to pull mine apart.

Really nice video Steve. Love to see repairs bring the product back to life. Dehumidifiers are popular this time of year for drying clothes when it is too cold and wet to hang them out. Thanks!

Why didn't you make a ground fill on the bottom layer for primary half of the pcb?

Any way of contacting Steve? I have a couple of Old dinosaur power amps made by Threshold in the 80's that need looking at.

Lucky to get the IC...

I still have two working NAD 3020 analogue amplifiers in my family, I don't think I'll be opting for the digital version anytime soon!

Hola!, Que opinión tienes del Aixun es02?

I really enjoyed this. The example of a noisy power rail and the scope work was great. I learned something new.

Just satifying how the solder flows

Hi, nice video. Regarding the use of the Micsig vs. Picoscope in this repair, would the Picoscope be an option with the Micsig differential probes that you tested several years ago? Or does it have some limitations? Thank you.
