    Joey, while I'm very proud, as someone that's watched this whole series, that you're almost at the $1,000 profit mark, I think I speak for the entire JDT community when I say, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE WANTS THIS SERIES TO GO AWAY AND WE DEMAND SEASON 2, WITH A GOAL OF $1,500. Ok that's all. Love the videos 😀

    As others are saying, for season 2 you should get out of your comfort zone and repair something totally different like TVs, Laptops etc... That would be awesome

    Joey, thanks for your great content. I've learned so much from watching your channel. I have some soldering skills. I tried to do a Switch USB C change and failed hard. Got discouraged and it sat on my bench for a few months. Then I started watching you and learned so many good tips. Then I retried with your methods and had a great success! Cheers to you mate 🍻

    Okay Joey, let me honestly talk about how you became my favourite "repair youtuber". You have started as a beginner (basically), you said openly that your work could be better, and you successfully evolved to this "repair master" I'd say. As much as I like both Steves (Tronics and Stez) and Coder, you're for me basically the amalgamate all the qualities that's necessary to be successful in this field, I mean great explanation, great to watch, no overly long tech talk. I'm safe to say that we're happy for your S1 accomplishments. Keep up the fantastic work @JoeyDoesTech

    I've been curious what setup you are using, my current Yihua is struggling with thicker boards, cant remove ports...I was told on reddit it's because my air gun has an in handle blower. I'd wish i'd known better before purchasing it, but what can you do. I'm relatively new to soldering myself, and work for a company that does their business on amazon, in the returns department fixing broken returns, would love to be able to do this on the side as well, not the streaming just the side gig for money lol. Personally looking into an Xtronic 4040 Pro X Platinum series.

    Well, I learned throught experience, that statement as "oh it's just a bad power supply" does not apply in many cases 😆
    Recently I tried to repair a device that started right away after repairing PSU, but little did I know. It showed errors on one of the stages, that I tried to investigate using PC software, just to find out that it couldn't establish connection, which was another of it's issue... Broken power supply was just a gentle introduction to many more challenging problems 😁

    Joey I think the reason we're seeing a lot of solder paste in the industry everywhere all over the planet is because a lot of hardware stores are carrying it now as a stock item. It takes low heat to use instead of buying a soldering iron and soldering equipment and I think people are thinking they can do repairs without investing into soldering tools.. including people who aren't even in the repair industry. Like literally in the United States you can go to any home Depot or Lowe's and get solder paste and attempt repairs with just a lighter or torch and a tube of paste...

    Heya - glad to see another video . I do have a challenge for you if you get this... the game gear from sega has a screen that has 68 pin ribbon cable that has to have each pin soldered. very hard to line up even with tips from retrosix can you come up with a method to make it easier to line up and solder those cables? :D

    The thought they used war I **** you not was that a glue gun and a soldering iron looked similar.
