Wannabe Electrical Engineer ⚡️ Tinkerer 🔧 Retro Video Game Enthusiast 🎮#SEGA; I document video game console restorations, mods, and repairs.
I ♥️ scanlines!
To whom it may concern: I haven't gone anywhere. I'm doing well now. I'm sorry for any trouble that my unexpected downtime may have caused. If you and I had a console plan together I will be getting back to you shortly. My day to day has been chaos for the last few weeks

@LouisAshabraner Keep in mind that original ac adapters may also need to have parts replaced. They have a big chunky cap that likes to leak and damage traces on the inner PCB.

I just got a #SegaGenesis AC adapter in from a customer who wanted a restoration service. This is a strange 🍪. Besides having cap fish smell and being covered in gunk there are multiple spots dangerously close to shorting. The only supports the board has are the solder joints ���
@LouisAshabraner Sega CD model 1s can be tricky. More often than not they'll have bad capacitors on the power board. Check for leaky, crusty looking caps on that board. There's also a transistor that likes to go boom on them if I remember correctly.

@DeyeMofo I know there's going to at least be a couple of people very upset with me, and I can't blame them. I basically disappeared for a month. My mind's still a haze but I'll work through it.
Thank you for the encouragement. I'll do my best to work myself up again.
I stayed away from the internet as much as I could manage because I've been a mess for weeks.
I promise to get back to anyone I was working with before my hiatus. I hope I can earn your trust again.
I look forward to catching up what I've missed out on.
I had just been getting accustomed to my new job just before this came down on me. I have been taking as much time off work as I could manage to take care of her. She's currently past the worst of it, soon to make a full recovery.
My regular day to day will return soon.
3/3?
@knightoftism Don't thank me, you were gonna grab that solder anyways right? I'm just glad it's helping you out. Good quality solder always makes the work much easier and enjoyable.
@NekojitaGames I'm happy to see how great this game turned out. It's a proper fancy release of a fun looking Christmas Genesis game.
I'm sorry I haven't been around as often to see how cool your game's been @iequalshane
