    Fake ELNA super capacitor

    Maybe it wasn't charging the smaller from the larger power bank because the larger one had lower voltage than the smaller.

    ruined

  4. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Eric test says:

    If it's anything like me it is to fill the emptiness inside. Subscribed.

    I bought one of those USB hubs and I had to resolder a bunch of bad solder joints.

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Electronic Creations says:

    It is accurate but voltage is lost because of the length of the wire and internal resistance.

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bit Jul says:

    If there is no load, then where does the 7 segment LEDs and the measuring circuit get its supply from?

    Oh, forgot to look at the date on the video – god knows what's in the bin by now!

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars albert bradfield says:

    Look at the value of the watch parts – how much for a 'canvas' strap? My local shop charges a pound each for those little batteries, and I am sure I would pay more than a pound for a replacement watch glass. Please send me your bin (contents that is)!

    Had to unsubcribe, sorry its one thing to collect too many things but quite another to buy stuff just to destroy it.

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars J H says:

    @8m43s: ARGH!!!!!!!

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John F says:

    What do you DO with all this stuff!

    May I suggest Bisley multi-drawer filing cabinets! (Ebay of course!)

    Destroyed the watch. Big Clive would be proud of you!
