    Thanks so much for this! Just replaced my son’s card reader, and it works perfectly again. Not all UA-cam repair vids are made with equal quality. Your step by step instructions were incredibly clear. Thanks!!!!!

    Thank you! Worked for us! Great to have your example to follow. Our dog chewed up animal crossing, and in a distraught state my daughter shoved the gnarled cartidge into the slot and the reader stopped working. This video saved us a bunch of $$! Much appreciated

    You should always replace thermal paste after taking apart the heatpipe

    Tip about the screws (the self-tapping ones, that screw directlly into the plastic):
    When screwing them in, aplly some downward pressure and turn the screw counterclockwise untill you feel and/or hear the screw poping into the existing threads. Then you can turn it clockwise. That way it will go into the existing threads, instead of making a new one and after a few times completelly eating up the plastic leaving you without the threads.

    As a small tip for the next repair, disconnect as the first battery connection so that no current can flow

    Terrible job here. No disconnected battery, no re use of heat sink tape, violent manipulation of the digitizer ribbon cable and press connector.

    Also in the future let me know if you got to use a four-way or a three-way Phillips some people may not know that it's a three-way Phillips for Nintendo switch

    Afternoon.....Maurice here in Grande prairie......this popped up in UA-cam as I was surfing lol....reminding me that we haven't seen you and your electric cars and family on lately...I think it's been months.....hope all is going well for your family in this challenging world

      Hello Maurice, yes, it’s been a while. I took a little break that just seemed to go on and one. Kind of like flattening the curve, but without getting sick.

      It’s just occupying space in the garage. I’m still trying to decide if it’s worth it to go down the path of buying a new battery, then having to buy a new controller, then possibly needing a new throttle vs saving the money for a set of eBikes.

      @@jdnrotterdam2150 Then I would recommend a hybrid or plugin hybrid. I myself drive a Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid (as in my state Texas, they dont offer the Plug-in Version.) But plan on upgrading to a Tesla Model Y within the next 2 years.

    • @jdnrotterdam2150
      @jdnrotterdam2150 3 роки тому

      Wow a step from a Ionic hybrid to a Tesla model Y that’s what you call upgrading. Won the lottery? New Job? I drive a 2012 Toyota Prius Hybride. With 191.000 km on it so i want to replace it. Saved some money for a new car. Was looking for an ev. But for 10.000 15.000 there is not much choice for me and my family in the EV world. Just 2 cars. The Nissan leaf 24 kwh. And the Renault Zoe 22 kwh. It’s just not good enough for a number one family car for work vacation and daily drive. I thought Michael always have some ideas so that’s why i ask him. What i drove before his Ev’s

    • @michaelsubasic
      @michaelsubasic  3 роки тому

      The money part is always going to be the challenge. Let’s say there were lot’s of choices in used.... if there were I’d look at a Leaf with the 42KW battery, the IONiq looks like a great car that I think would be good. I talked with our daughter and she liked the mini, or the Tesla3. I think the Tesla3 would offer the best range, followed by Leaf and IONiq. Here where we live in western Canada, I’m just not seeing a lot of used electrics for sale just yet. But each year there will be more and more.

    - I found a couple more things I wanted to link you to. Links in the (first) reply commnet.
    The first is called "Bike Nook" - I thought you might like it for all your bikes.
    The second is called "Razer Kishi" and is a universal gaming controller for iOS, Android and Android Xbox.
