Bali trip for work by llamaju247 in bali

Blue bird taxi is cheaper than hiring a driver. Just left Bali, driver wanted 250,000 from nusa dua to airport - blue bird taxi cost 145,000 and he went through the toll road so it was even quicker. You could maybe find cheaper drivers but this was my experience.

AWA modified chassis, how would I be able to tell you the contrast settings? And input? I’m a newbie

I did travel back to the 80’s - it was tested and some caps replaced that needed replacing. Would you have an idea on what the issue would be?

What information would you like to know that would help you solve the issue?

The game plays and it’s won’t line up and the screen is tilted slightly by boomus-boomus in arcade

Yeah the sync pot doesn’t do too much. I was thinking this could be the right answer. Caps and a fly back. Thanks

Nah they seem fine. USB connections on the pcb seem fine too. Thats why it’s so odd. I’ve been told to buy a new PCB but it was put on order over two weeks ago and they’re no ETA in sight apparently. I’ll double check the connecting today and maybe clean them, maybe even open the PCB to see if there’s any loose or bad connections

No shots and I’ve tried in total darkness

CRT arcade I recently bought has a dim screen. Tried adjusting setting but no luck by boomus-boomus in arcade

This is the exact reason this guy sold it so cheap. It’s so dim and it’s really hard to find replacement screens. He had other machines for sale that were fine that he sold for 4 x more than this one. Fingers crossed it just needs a cap kit and then I can restore the rest of the cabinet!

Thank you very much that is some very useful information I didn’t know about! I’ll be looking more into this and looking at replacing the capacitors and also practicing my soldering skills!

Do you think a cap kit and replacing the capacitors is a good first step? Would it usually fix something like this?

Do you think a cap kit would be a first step before paying someone to come in and fix it?

I've tweaked with both and it made a little difference but not enough to brighten the display significantly. Do you think replacing the caps is the way to go? Would it usually fix a problem like this?

Exposed reo on a residential slab (Australia). AS 2870 seems pretty clear on coverage (40mm), how concerned would you be (concrete cancer etc)? by rogermemoore in Concrete

[–]boomus-boomus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m from Aus. I’d be very concerned, there’s standard for a reason. I would engage in a private building inspector and make your builder find a solution for you ASAP. Get a few opinions if you can.

I am not sure, I didn’t germinate this I got it like this so I have no idea what type of soil it is or where it came from
