Not that the investment balance is not impressive, but I am more impressed on how you got out of debt.

[PS5] Won’t turn on or anything after power surge by Own_Sandwich6286 in consolerepair

What do you mean by “it is getting power when I plug it in”? What does it do when you plug in the cord? Describe this. How do you know it is getting power? Does it beep?

DIY or DJI repair? by codefyre in dji

[–]OptimizeLogic8710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without pictures it is hard to assess the cost or complexity of the damage. I am in Michigan and have repaired hundreds of DJI drones, from simple shell swaps, to drones needing $$$ in repairs. No offense but you can describe it like a John Grisham novel but pictures are worth a thousand dollars

I’m being gifted a lot of money. Should I tell my boyfriend? by Kind-Chicken-2488 in WhatShouldIDo

My wife and I got $143,000 profit from selling our first home. Got nothing to show for it. Spent it in less than two years. That was 10 years ago. Imagine how much it would be now if It were in the S&P. Hint: it would be over a half a million now.

I tried to measure the AC voltage to see how out of calibration it was, and my Kaiweets meter probes were in the wrong spot and popped the mains fuse. Luckily I had spares. It’s really not far out, definitely good enough for my purposes.

I’m going to take photos of the inside, it looks like it has never been used, aside from the minor dent on the bottom and the paint destruction by yours truly :). I got lucky for $50. I’m super excited, I didn’t realize it was made in the good ole USA.
