So, thes disgustingly awful bluetooth headphones wouldn't charge today, so I opened them up and saw pic related.
Tried to find a battery replacement, but they're selling them for 8$ on Ali!!!

Help a brother out... is there a place where I can order these for a cheaper price, or should I just bin the whole thing?

What did he mean by this???

>>62117838
These irons may be a little too cheap. Thanks to plenty of teardowns and some models with transparent casings we know they don't have a thermocouple/thermistor in the tip, which means they're not actually temperature controlled. There's no direct relation between that dial on the side and actual tip temperature.

Look at Yihua 908D or 936 on the cheap end for actual temperature control. TS100 and a laptop charger and/or vehicle adapter if you need something good that's very portable.

>Also should I get a desoldering pump or just use solder wick?

Both. They're cheap, and using the pump to get rid of bulk solder while using the wick for cleanup will save you chewing up all of your wick in minutes.

Ordered a cable for my 215, but the cable that came has wrong mmcx connector I think. Left is the proper cable, right is the one I got. It doesn't stay in place. What can I do? Will I have to go through painful process of sending it back to get my money back, or can I request a refund without sending it back? I really don't have time to go to post and prepare and put it in a box to send somewhere. Will they even return me the shipping fee?

Do tracking works on aliexpress or is it just a meme?

>>62120688
Of course you can get LiPo packs cheaper than that, Hitler. The six-figure number printed on the side is the dimensions, not a tattoo.

is this brand sale on aliexpress a scam?

yes it works but its kind of fucky not as good as USPS or something

>>62121009
How about a link? The cheapest I found were 6$, with 80$ shipping via DHL.

>>62120909
Seems to work well with Royal Mail, works OK with USPS wrt final delivery but you get some significant delays on the processing stages. Dunno about other countries.

>>62120688
You can use any lipo pack that fits and has an integrated charge circuit like that one appears to. Remember to leave a little bit of space around it on all sides because they expand a little from warming during use/charging, and if they press up against other parts so hard they deform, you get the Note 7.

>>62121028

What is a good soldering station?

>>62121189
936 clones. Better if they're parts-compatible, since a lot of them reverse connector gender for no reason.

>>62117838
That one is quite shit.

Definitely suggesting an upgrade to a 936D (CXG, BAKU) or A-BF GS90D. They're quite good.

>>62121189
I'd suggest >>62121280, not soldering stations but temperature controlled irons.

Unless you also want a hot air gun or something, there's no particularly big difference.

>>62120729
Things like fire resistant material and a fire extinguisher.
Might just check the insides and maybe get no-housefire verified chargers instead though.

>>62121138

also phones that come with official global roms support OTA updates

>>62121138
Yes, all Xiaomi phones do OTA updates since forever and Xiaomi supports their ROMs for a really long while.

Well, minus the ones that have been re-flashed to a 3rd party botnet ROM by resellers, but nobody really can help that and IMMEDIATELY re-flashing the ROM you want or at least verifying it's stock upon on receiving the phone is standard /csg/ practice.

>>62121329
is this better than the e10k?

So I'm guessing these tennmak pro for $21 are a good deal?

>>62121301
Keeping most of the guts out of the handle makes them easier to use though, which is nice. Also easier maintenance if need be.

>>62121329
How's the USB DAC on these compared to pulling toslink from something like a realtek chip on a PC mainboard?

Alright. Well my plan is to buy one when I'm in China because there is no way I can get one delivered before I go, and flash the Global ROM. I'll download it just before I go just in case for some reason I can't get the global ROM when I'm out there

If I flash the Global ROM found on miui.com, will that still get OTA updates?

DO NOT CHEAP OUT also actually test the earth connection on whatever you end up getting. If the earth pin is sleeved, replace the plug. DO NOT get one with those fucking "universal" sockets, UK standard or go home. Even if it looks legit, don't plug anything that draws a significant load into it - no heaters, kettles, PCs, etc.

Nah m8, it's pretty simple. Having a fuse matched to the appliance means you can put a lower-rated fuse on an appliance with a thin cable and not worry about resistive heating setting your shit on fire. I've seen cables melt before the main breaker trips, can't happen if you have that extra fuse.

Is the Zishan Z2 worth getting if I already have a cheap phone? Also, is the KZ ZS5 worth getting or is there something better for around the same price?

You should probably also take a look at the walnut v2s, I'm also looking for a dap but I can't decide between those two

I looked for sensitivity an soundstage deciding on my earphones, my former 96 spl as my guide tho i dont listen that loud often- higher sensitivity generally better in that respect if you will never get an amp. Soundstage also up for debate with most movies, but most say good for that.

>>62125972
Wouldn't it be good to be get an amp so you don't have to be tied to low impedance headphones? Having a good amp doesn't have to be that expensive anymore. You can get stuff like the walnut F1 or V2 that have more than 20 hours of battery, are small, can work as an amp or a player and also power 600+ ohm headphones.

That's why they caught my attention, I saw some comments on headfi about how those bass lens on the center of the earcup of the B6 add a lot of subbass.

From what I understand the one you posted needs a programmer? I don't really know. I know the one I posted is a clone of a kickstarted board and that one is compatible with the arduino software, I'm just a CS babby so I only know how to do plug and play electronics.

OnePlus X is one of last good phones before manufacturers started pushing bigger spec-numbers as improvements and innovation. The only bad things I can say about is that for this model OnePlus sacrificed practical stuff in favor of the esthetics (slippery because back glass, average battery and it gets hot when running intensive stuff because slim and so on).

Like this guy said, it's a grommet. If you have some vernier gauges you can measure the od, the Id and the thickness and order a one. If the cable is under £3/€4/$5 just order a new one and keep it as a spare

from the photo seems to be brass, which would make sense since it has to conduct electrons, right? or is the connection being made by the top part and some spring contact?

>>62129460
can you see the number/model lasered on the ram ics? check the datasheet and see if those are the higher density ones (lower number of ics per ram card, usually only one side is populated)

>>62129483
Going from The photo, I would say the copper center contact does the transmitting, and the o ring is just coloured to match for aesthetic appeal. May be wrong due to potato quality picture though

>>62129504
>coloured to match for aesthetic appeal
that could well be the case. and if its not, a quick fix would be a piece of just the right thickness of copper wire (calipers might be needed) twisted into an o-ring shape around that shaft section. it should hold, at least until a proper part is found

Of course not. You need external power for one thing.
Just buyer the more expensive 3.5 orico cases.

>>62130031
3.5 inch drives need 12V and quite a bit of power so you need to look at an adapter that allows you to plug in an extra power supply

>>62130031
If by regular HDD you mean a SATA one, then yes.

But 3.5" ones usually won't have enough power from just an USB port. Other adapters like this have a plug for an additional PSU but I think this model doesn't.

If I may suggest, get an Orico dock again, maybe a flat one (pic related), they're pretty nice.

>>62130124
> The thing is that even the cheapest one is 5-6 times more expensive
Yea, I guess. Various models of this cost $15-25 IIRC, some like the very new USB3 Type-C even more.

> At that price point I can jsut go for some used j1900 or something
Uh, if that's really an option (are computers with J1900 THAT cheap where you live?), why not. But running an additional computer will probably consume some extra power vs just a dock. If it runs often or 24/7, I figure power costs might relatively quickly break even.

>>62130288
No.

>>62130288
Not really, certainly not for Europeans or US citizens (also not for most others).

Yes, Xiaomi's huge TVs or whatever would make for decent monitors, but the shipping costs fuck the deal.

>>62130304
>>62130326
oh..

Is the Bluedio N2 really good?
Anything better, and not too expensive, for running?

>>62130334
Yea, they only have cheap shipping for small items.

Once they get even just as big as a Xiaomeme robot vacuum, they start to be closer to $25 per kg extra and also some then again some srs money for bigger volumes like for displays. In the case of the Xiaomeme vacuum it's worth it since it's about as good as a ~$1k roomba, but generally this doesn't work out for the usual devices in a household.

And no, Chinks generally don't do surface freight for private customers. Probably also because it's not that easy to organize in many countries outside of developed Europe and the USA.

Fug that's a worse deal than the stuff on taobao. I saw a board with a sa9023 and es9018 for $13.

are there better in-ear headphones than sony MH750 for <$10? i just want a passable backup in case my yamaha EPH-100 break

are those chink earbuds (VE monk and the like) really that good? i've only tried really crappy ones that came included with some random shit so i can't judge but i'd imagine that decent in-ears are better?

Monks' sound can compete with my Sony MDR-EX450H, they're really good.

I don't know how well they do with durability yet. The Sony one is quite amazing there and survived a lot of abuse.

What does it mean when a package is pre-advised? Is it bad dutch translation

Is postnl reputable

Can someone point me to that pic reviews scrapper website by some anon?

How does csg feel about orangepi's, are they compatible with raspbian and other rpi based distro's or are they doing their own thing?

It means chinks have printed shipping label, but they haven't shipped your package yet.
Or with non chink carries (like PostNL) it means that they haven't received package yet from China.

Well, apparently I managed to find something that you can't find really cheap on chinksites. I guess this kind of adapters are made of gold or something, the lowest price I found was on Amazon.

Get a Kingdian or Netac SSD instead, they're confirmed by quite a few anons to be good.

Le S3. It has an X20 which is not an underpowered SD625. Good for the $100 price.

What are good chink bluetooth earplugs under 10$ on aliexpress?

>>62129014
Don't forget the recent Samsungs that exploded, Apple has had issues like that too and the LG that bootlooped.
I think in the end all brands can have duds.

it depends on your country
I'm in the UK and I ordered a tablet form China and I didn't even get hit with customs
The only time I've been hit with customs is with ordering stuff from the US from private sellers who put on the real value for insurance
The real bastard thing with customs charges is that the actual VAT is like £1.50 but then it's a £8 HMRC processing fee then a £5 parcelforce processing fee

it can happen in pretty much all countries, they can ask for receipt or your item slips through depending on luck, the item, the shipping company etc
