This was more informative about 'tech work' in an 18 minute video than a 4 year EE degree. Keep up the good work

[@TheHackPig]

Great video. I appreciate the content.

[@AntminerRepair]

thanks for the videos its a real help , do you sell boards?

[@Cryptogenius69]

What solder or glue are you using? Do you have a special link where I could purchase some? Thanks. Great videos, keep up the good work!

[@user-wy4co2ll9k]

Спасибо.

[@AntminerRepair]

Не за что мой друг.

Do you have an idea what type of solder it was originally manufactured with? Possible lower melting point would cause heat sink to fall off pre maturely.

[@phoan190]

please help me s17+. unequal voltage ranges. test is still enough number of chips . The signal pins are still there. I'm stuck

[@alialdulaimi6052]

Please help me i need info about product that use with heat to adhasive the sink please ?

[@IIAngeliuxII]

Is repairing an S17 model similar to repairing a DR5? I see the hash boards are pretty much alike, but maybe something differs... I just runned into a falling heat sink problem.

[@evan5349]

Is there any way you can tell me what to buy, like desoldering gun, flux, etc?

[@deegs1749]

Do you have experience with black glue that zeus sells? I was thinking that is what is used for replacing heat sinks.

[@AntminerRepair]

Not on the 17 series machines. Except maybe the T17e. They must be soldered

[@davep6977]

Excellent video. Just happen to be working on a 17 right now with the same issue. But I can't find any 130 degree solder & flux anywhere. The only 130 I've found is resin core and .5 in size. Can you send me a link?

[@AntminerRepair]

Look at chipquik.com

[@sinafarazmand4813]

hi. can you tell me wich model of chip is good for t17 and t17+

[@AntminerRepair]

Please look at zeusbtc.com and look for the BM1397 chip. There is a table in the description that maps chips to miners. Thanks!

[@youssefpeace6089]

what if put thermal paste?

[@drpc98014]

Any chance I could send you a t17 miner that needs work? Many broken chips and detached heat sinks. My guess is the boards got dropped..

[@AntminerRepair]

Hi, You might want to ask on our discord server if anyone can help you. Right now, I'm very full with projects. Thanks.

Why my hashboard asic 32#

[@SHOP305]

Hello antminer repair I was trying to figure out a way to reach out to you but this was the only way. I have a S 17 Pro which I overheated and six heat sinks fell off and one is loose it’s the heat sinks on the chip side I wanted to get your opinion. Most of the Solder on the chip part is off but the heat sinks still have Solder on them I am afraid to resolder them and throw a solder ball and short the circuit. I have cool master high-performance thermal paste is it safer to try to remove all the solder from the heat sink and the chips and use the thermal paste or do I place the heat sink with some chip quick on the chip and heat the heat sink and try to fuse it again .what should I do please and thank you?

[@user-eb9th6ik7b]

make a video on t17e repair

[@AntminerRepair]

I probably would if I had one.... right now I don't have one!

[@MrFutu8]

Чего тебя интересует?

[@user-eb9th6ik7b]

Как чипы правильно выращивать, как их проверять, Поподробнее пожалуйста. Какой припой, температура

[@MrFutu8]

@@user-eb9th6ik7b как чипы выращивать, я хз. Проверяются снятые чипы на ток потребления, запаянные просто по контрольным точкам. Чип пайка на припой 200С+, радиатор пайка на припой 150С.

[@user-eb9th6ik7b]

@@MrFutu8 один человек показывал, мол берёт чип, подсоединяет лабораторный блок установив на 1.5 вольта и подсоединяет на большой контакт минус на маленьком плюс, и смотрит по потреблению если 0.2-0.5 то норм если выше Ампера то хреновый, у меня т17е там чипы AB в конце, пробовал так он сразу греется и потребление больше, а тип который показывал ремонтировал т 17 просто, незнаю можиш рассказать как проверять чипы годный не годный

[@Altirk]

Why You have not a Quick 861 DW. I feel how you are suffering.))))

[@asichelp]

Bad chip = good chip.

[@manicteratogen]

does it matter which hashboard goes in which slot? i assume no, but just making sure. I repaired some heat sinks, but the board is still not working with no other apparent damage

[@AntminerRepair]

No, it doesn't matter. Thanks

[@omidkh7712]

awful work
