PS5 Crispy Edition... That was not a repair, that was surgery.

@adamnickels8117 Ай бұрын

I salvaged my boys ps5 from a fire. I literally had to cut the case off of it but it still works great. It's not in a case and it's ugly but it's working great.

I kept screaming cmos cmos battery when u were applying the liquid metal 😂

@bloodmines Ай бұрын

@FFS__Dave Ай бұрын

Me too! Plus, a missing cap underneath the disc drive connector. Still, he wasn’t at his best when he made this video. It’s good to see he’s a lot better now.

@FFS__Dave definitely, I think was I guess 3 weeks into treatment, just going off my dads throat cancer diagnosis, it can be hard to remember and to be at ur best during treatment

The sound the liquid metal applicator makes when you rub on the liquid metal is oddly satisfying 😆

Nice PS5, interesting video Steve :-) You can remove the APU sponge as its held down with double sided adhesive strips that go around the outside of the encapsulant of the APU and stick to the plasic shield. This makes cleaning under it easier and the sponge itself. It can then be stuck back down by replacing the adhesive strips (stock ones are black) that hold it down and create a seal around the APU IC.

You should use solder mask to hold the traces in place. That would be way better than super glue

when you dropped the glob of liquid metal on the board there was still some on the board where it landed after you picked it up.

@ExecutorQ3 15 күн бұрын

31:00 if you even plan doing some repair stuff like this in the future i suggest to buy some super glue and an activator (which you can then gently spray over and it will make the glue go hard in instant... like a soda for ex, but that's not usable in here)... i does not work on all super glues, that's why i'm suggesting buyin them together (you'll most likely find smth usefull in shop for model kits) 45:45 you forgot the cr2032 (or w/e size that batt is)

@leeverink32 Ай бұрын

Youre totally right marrying the drive to the board actually serves no purpose. Not even when the console would be hacked.

Superglue (aka Cyanoacrylate) will not work until the air is removed. It won't work by adding superglue on top of something like regular glue.

@jonathaningram4672 Ай бұрын

Hi I bought a camera off ebay that was described as faulty with the intention of me having a go at fixing it, stated fault was zoom lens jammed and a grinding noise. Turns out they were unable to charge it properly and because the battery had been left discharged too long, even when fully charged it was weak. The only issue it has is the tripod mount socket is pretty ruined. I wonder if yourself or any others have contacted the seller and told them or just have a big smug smile, luckily I hadn't bought the lens assembly in advance as it would cost £80.

@8bitnation419 Ай бұрын

Alway important to use surge protectors, fire alarms and have a fire extinguisher in the house as well turning off things that are not in use like radiators, electrics. It can save your life. Preventing a house fire should always be a high priority thing. Oh and keep your electric car, scooter etc if you have one parked out. Don't park that bomb in your house.

I don’t get what he means by “all those models before the PS5 slim came out”. Since day one, Sony has had the disc version and the discless version. And since 2020, they’ve made very, very modest adjustments to the inside. Is he mixing it up with the PS4?

Long time watcher. I think I know you from somewhere years ago. but could be wrong. But, you do a lot of cleaning and I think a sonic cleaner or similar would help you. what do you think? I used a freon one when I was at Honeywell which is not OK these days. But very effective.

Hey Tronix, I just wanted to let you know they have this spray that will instantly make superglue dry, might be worth looking into if these types of repairs are common. I dont know if it will let me post a link to some, but I will reply to this post with a link if it lets me.

Should totally purposely burn the bottom face plate, to give a more burnt look to match the front or top face plate.

Curious as to the type of fire? The burn marks look very localized and indicative of an angry partner with a blow torch. No smoke damage and ribbon leads all intact despite abs plastic melting and warped.

sory for the dumb question but have u ever tryed to get the liquid metal with a magnet?

@klopferator Ай бұрын

Liquid metal mainly consists of gallium and tin (and maybe very tiny amounts of other metals), and both of these aren't magnetic. So you can't clean up LM with a magnet.
