    I despise how effortlessly Alex can swiftly locate shorts. When I initially began following this channel, I had absolutely zero experience. However, through dedicated viewing, I can now label myself as a beginner. From my personal perspective, this UA-cam channel is unquestionably one of the most exceptional platforms for learning. I wish to convey my heartfelt gratitude for all the videos, Alex. Your teaching is genuinely remarkable, and you've sparked inspiration within me in innumerable ways. With hope, I aspire to attain a similar level of efficiency as you one day. Furthermore, I've observed that Alex might have intentionally amplified the volume of the ending theme song, possibly as a response to those who expressed disapproval in the previous video. LOL.

      I think the real thing people fail to realize is in terms of the repair Big Boss is doing like 85% of the work offscreen.
      Proper disassembly / reassembly and the initial troubleshooting of these devices before it hits Alex's desk is no joke.
      Not to minimize Alex's efficient efforts and expertise.
      I think comments like this actually minimize the entirety of the effort that goes into a repair like this as it only references the troubleshooting benchwork.
      Amazing work. Amazing video. :D

    Alex, curious WHY so many electronics see to get shorts like this? Dirty power? Not using proper surge protection? Crappy components? Product abuse/misuse? I ask because I hardly ever have electronics go bad. Yet, I have friends who seem to always be needing something repaired or replaced. Maybe a combination of things?

      If space is precious, engineers may have to use caps that run closer to their limits, raising the chances of an already marginal cap to fail. But eventually, some caps die even if the circuit provides a lot of margin.

    The money is for your decades of experience and training on how to troubleshoot and fix a customer's problem. Whether you fix the problem in 3 minutes or three hours--depending on the type of work--is irrelevant. It's the result that matters. And the cost for reflects your ability achieve that result efficiently.

    It doesn't matter if it's easy or not... what matters is the result and that is what you are paying for... sometimes it's easy and you have luck but sometimes it's not and you spend a long time before it's fixed.
