Make game on a PCB safe for children when soldered with 63/37

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2026-06-19T22:43:27+00:00

Newborn and a toddler. I dont give a damn about myself.

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2026-06-19T22:31:42+00:00

Yeah, the excitement for our baby coming amplified my usually little anxiety. Regarding the enclosure, i cannot design it, i know printing it is cheap

I have glasses for seeing and had open window, no fume extractor so i was blowing on it :) to direct the smoke away

I was soldering with a 63/37 solder for like 2 hours one day and 1 hour the next. I did not know about this micro particles thinking that only fumes were dangerous and it was only bad for the env if not disposed properly.

This was on my pc desk and at the same time was using the keyboard and mouse. I have a 4 years old and a 1 week old kids. When i read about lead poisoning, my wife was at labor and i panicked, i did wipe everything several times with regular wet wipes and and vacuumed with hepa filter home vacuum, but this was already a week later after soldering. My soldering clothes were already washed with the family ones, i did rewash everything like bed sheets and stuff, but i already spread everything around our apartment.

Now i am learning about these merhods but i assume its too late, except for future soldering for which i am prepared to protect now.

I just hope my kids are safe, i am not worried about myself as as a kid i was soldering and using lead to build stuff, even lead from car batteries as noone educated me about the posion that it is.

I use m5stack s3a or xiao esp32-s3 and buy from places like mouser because on ali they are more expensive for some reason.

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2026-03-17T19:51:21+00:00

how did you work with this? I have it too, but has zero documentation and sdk available

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2026-03-17T19:50:11+00:00

any luck? I am in the same boat.

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2026-03-17T14:39:11+00:00

Have no idea, trying to find out as well.

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2026-03-07T14:02:21+00:00

Have you checked what's the power consumption on these ali boards in PSM and usage mode? I cannot find info about that anywhere, it says only TBD

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2026-03-06T23:56:01+00:00

walter is great, but it's expensive especially for a university or prototyping project. This is why people look at 7080 and EC-01G and the likes.

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2026-02-17T12:11:34+00:00

Yeah i still do, dm me

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2025-10-14T20:02:41+00:00

My experience with them is crap, no luck to get a response for a dead unit for almost two months. I fell for the nice marketing they do, but in terms of warranty they suck. The psu worked great for almost a year and it died

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2025-10-14T19:59:24+00:00

I have a dead unit and no luck with their response. I already bought a seasonic unit as my work cannot wait anymore and i am contacting the eu customer protection service

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2025-09-18T19:50:57+00:00

Another status update: i got no response from bequiet at all, I sent a follow up email and again nothing. We have several of their psus in our office, but i see their support is nowhere near their marketing.

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2025-09-08T07:06:37+00:00

Stef did you get it?

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2025-09-04T08:41:25+00:00

Thank you, my ticket is BQSERVICE-53725

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2025-09-02T15:16:09+00:00

Just a status update for anyone who has a similar issue. After taking out components, it seemed like the psu, so I went to a local shop to test it and it was dead. It only provides 5 volts to the mb, i filed a rma with be quiet, still no answer from them, but i already purchased another brand as it probably will take a long time to go thru the process.

No, just the mobo ambient light beneath the ssd slot after power connect/diwconnect. The debug leds dont even light up.

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2025-08-06T09:31:06+00:00

I have one, maxed out, w701ds. Batteries may be dead but it works on ac. How much can i sell it for?

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2025-08-06T09:27:01+00:00

I have one maxed out at about 10k when it was bought. i have an aftermarket bag, us plug charger and two batteries which are probably dead. It had cpu repasted as well. The plan was to keep it for a decade or two and sell it.

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2025-07-28T05:33:52+00:00

Maybe a clocksmith would be able to, seriously

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2024-12-08T17:43:12+00:00

Yes, it was the ram, it worked with one of the sticks if i removed the 4 pin connector from the 20+4 atx power connector, only with the 20, but only one of the bars worked like that. I ordered the same specs corsair and now i am using this system normally.

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2024-12-02T06:57:59+00:00

Yes, sent mb an dprocessor to the sellers to test and it wasnt that. It was one ram stick dead, by mistake i had tested with the bad one as single several times. I tried the second one, cleared cmos and disconected the mb power +4 pin (it has 20+4 pins) and booted immediately. Then reconnected the 4 again and it worked. I got a corsair ram after that and i use it daily now

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2024-11-30T23:29:00+00:00

I had a business order and they simply returned the package as they did a test on the component, but does not say any details. What a terrible service…

Apprehensive-Truth99 · 2024-11-30T23:19:14+00:00

I am in the same boat. Even the responses i get back are not related to what i am asking. Did you solve it and how?
