JoesGE.com is a pretty cool place (depending who you talk to it might be more than pretty cool. But hey, I'm just writing this down so that it says something down here, because that's more professional right?) and if you're still reading along at this point you might as well sit down and grab some popcorn because this is about to trail on about how we are this premiere repair service located in Washington State North of Seattle in basically the "Armpit of the US" near Mt baker (Mt Baker has the world record for most snowfall at 1,140 inches in a season). Even though it can smell bad around here we love the fresh air and being near the post office and in a quiet sleepy mountain town certainly gives us much closer access to Team Turtle and Team Beaver (Watch our "Who, what, when and where is JoesGE?" video if you don't get the reference).
All this to basically say that we are all addicted to coffee and stay in the warehouse for ridiculously long hours in order to keep up with the demands of the youth for these two sided head audio devices and speakers that float when you throw them in the ocean or in your bathtub to test if they actually float. On top of that we do like it when less stuff ends up in landfills so we hoard everything on shelves with wheels so that we pollute less, it just sits in our warehouse loosing molecules slowly over time degrading to become smaller and smaller.
If you are still reading at this point you deserve an award, or a high five, or something because you must either be the most patient person on the planet, or you read blogs frequently. And if the latter is the case, then this whole thing must seem pretty short so lets keep going.
We do some really interesting things here at JoesGE which are frequently documented in our sometimes weekly sometimes never vlogs.
Also, if you are wondering how we keep up with the demands of the people so well, its because 90% of the people that work here are all Russian around getting things done most of the time. Yes, that was a pun, you are welcome. We hope you have a pun filled day, because who couldn't use a few laughs?

Excellent, well detailed video. Good production values and voiceover as well. I've been looking for one like this. thanks

[@Joesge]

Glad you enjoyed it! Much appreciated

[@davejonze]

Best to add low melt solder on anchor points and pads. By doing this it lowers the factory leaded solder which has a higher temp and allows for easier clean up with wick.

[@Joesge]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@martharisingrosson7926]

Wow! I'm glad for the tip because it's been ages since I tried anything that I couldn't have somebody else fix if I screwed up!!¡¡!!

[@ceeedubbb]

Hi! Awesome video. Very helpful. Can you tell me where I can purchase the replacement charging port?

hi joe...i've learnt (for me) a fair bit on soldering and a subset of that on circuit boards. i am intrigued however by your use of a syringe filled with "NC-558-V2-TF" (at 06 mins 31 secs) which might be what can be used as solder...please can you advise what that is?...thans Ben

Clicked on link for send your speaker to, but within the site, there is no icon for speaker. I see phone, tablet, console, watch, but nothing for speaker.

[@justanotherguy469]

Just buy a new speaker. Not worth the time and effort. Pins are so fragile and tiny.

[@snickpan]

every instance of you saying 'go ahead' was needless

[@Joesge]

How do u think I felt editing it. 😂
