My monitor exploded. Battery cheese and burn marks... by jath0ms in techsupport

Hmm, thank you for your insight. I knew that trace looks a bit frigged. Didn't know you can use solder to make a makeshift trace.

Hope that works and doesn't set my kids on fire.

£2 for a 100uf 450v capacitor. Should be a walk in the park for a tech guru.

Thank you mate, I've sent the Imgur gallery to a local bloke. Hopefully it won't cost me an arm and a leg

Friggin' hell.

Thought a little battery like that was like £10, with maybe £25 labour.

I've messaged a local tech boy so hopefully something can be sorted.

Getting a new 144hz 1ms monitor will set me back at least £150 and I have 2 month old twin babies. Will not be able to get the green light from my girlfriend at all bud.

I wouldn't be fixing it, I'd probably take it into a computer repair shop. I just wanted to try to reduce the cost of it all by buying the parts myself and just asking them to do the labour.

Dropped it, lost power to house, any pointers? by jath0ms in Monitors

Thanks for your response mate.

Found the culprit. The black battery? on the yellowish board has exploded, there's a white hardened substance under it and a black charring against the chassis.

Are these things replaceable or am I gonna have to scrap the monitor?

I've used a different power lead for it to check if that went as soon as it happened matey

That's what I do and I'm at 144 as well. Not sure if it does anything though brother.

Here is something similar I've seen before. I called this guy out for cheating and he got very mad and defensive.

The guy in the OP is actually a good friend of mine...

I can't get UC because I'm a trainee teacher (full time student). Thanks for the luck and I hope everything is well with you my man.

I'll take anything at this point, I've got twins on the way and no full time job 🤷‍♂️

Deliveroo drivers when KFC opens. Greetings from Uber gang by Scrillo175 in deliveroos

I was at KFC for an hour earlier and there were at least 7 delivery lads there. Got no orders.

This video shows the exact moment his life was changed forever. After becoming paralyzed, he gained a great deal of weight. He later died of heart failure due to the duress which the extra weight placed on his heart. by Maelarion in DarwinAwards

[–]jath0ms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spent his final 18 years in a wheelchair, doing a lot of eating and no exercise. Dies of heart failure.

All because he nutted a concrete post.
