Repairs for 2018.

AppleMacbook 2010: A battery had blown up inside, and I removed the battery. Just a quick note about putting the cables back (microscopes and tweezers help)

Bose Cinemate: A repair from Craigslist. A Generation 1 Bose Cinemate, would not turn on (light stays red). Turned out the remote control IR receiver failed. Easy repair. Also covered by others online.

Harbor Freight Bauer Drill - A drill made to fail, (surprise) failed. Attempts to replace the Power MosFETs inside.

HP Pavilion 15 cs0053 -

NYNE Bass - Water (rain) caused a chip inside to go into a safety mode. It was necessary to dismantle the device and turn it off, turn it back on. Success!

Sony PVM 14M4U - A television that was displaying moving lines. Op Amp negative voltage rail is off by 5-7 volts.

Weller WSD51 - Soldering Iron suddenly failed. Under warranty so covered by Weller. May have been the iron's fragile temperature probe wire which was damaged by rough usage.
