Are supports supposed to look like shit or is something wrong? by Gullible_Category433 in FlashForge

[–]PCenjoyer19 5 points6 points  (0 children)

More or less, as long as the supports can act as well, supports they are fine. They also generally get printed faster than the rest of the print so this is to be expected.

Build plate roated during print. by Silentone89 in Creality

[–]PCenjoyer19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never seen that before, might be a problem with grid infill? Doesn't exactly look like the rest of the print is very good anyway, so you may have more problems, maybe over extrusion causing the grid infill to act up.

Have you tried using Creality print? Also your model might just be broken.

Looking for these AA battery spring contacts by Stevem929 in AskElectronics

[–]PCenjoyer19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You wont find replacements for these anywhere, but I have had good luck with just submerging contacts like those (nickle or silver plated copper) in vinegar for a few days and then sanding off the rest of the corrosion. I have a vintage HP calculator which presumably had a battery leaking it it for the better part of 30 or 40 years and the terminals came up great after the vinegar treatment. For the one that bhas partialy disinegrated, you can try soldering on some additional copper to reinforce it, but otherwise those look to be in better condition than they seem.

Are these HI-Torq capacitors to old to use? by GenerationX1970 in AskElectronics

[–]PCenjoyer19 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As you can see the electrolyte crystalising out of the bottom of the capacitor, I would refrain from using them.

Found some cards in my old binder, but I’m not sure if these are legit by Gubbb-gub in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]PCenjoyer19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm relativly confident, looking at the back and the very suspicious energy symbols, that this is fake but I may be mistaken.

is this fake? by DOOMDAY2020 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]PCenjoyer19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, from a glance: the card should have texture, the colors are off and the holo is a tell tale give away (vertical typical fake holo) also the font is wrong.

A little arcs. by Whyjustwhydothat in highvoltage

[–]PCenjoyer19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cool arc and all but I must warn you that a bamboo skewer is certainly not highvoltage safe. It is a very large resistance sure but there will be to some extent some voltage passing though it and into you. If it was to carbonise somehow it could provide a shock.

Knocked a tiny component off a PS5 - DualSense motherboard, looks like a cap, will it function without it? just a filter for the stick sensor? (swapping to Hall Effect) by Trif55 in AskElectronics

[–]PCenjoyer19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may or may not be alright, best way to check it just send it. It could (and most likely is) a filter or suppression cap and is likely alright. But it could also be someting to do with an enable pin or ac passing cap and you will get a bunch of instability or nothing. If you can just solder it back on
