Re: fixing laptop jack
its not always so simple. If you don't soldier correctly, the soldier will actually give off heat when a current goes through it, and in some cases it can get so hot the soldier will melt, cause shorts, and destroy your equipment. knowing is half the battle. -jmz On Mon, Dec 28, 2009 at 5:47 PM, mike havens wrote: > just make sure you heat up both metal parts before applying the soldier! > > On Mon, Dec 28, 2009 at 2:46 PM, Joshua Zeidner wrote: >> >> your sales skills are also the suck. ;) >> >> given that engineers are notoriously self deprecating Im willing to >> overlook that if you convince me you can fix my precious Toshiba. >> soldering is much more difficult than many think. >> >> -jmz >> >> On Mon, Dec 28, 2009 at 2:41 PM, Stephen wrote: >> > I know how, but my soldering skills are the suck. >> > >> > On Mon, Dec 28, 2009 at 2:36 PM, Joshua Zeidner >> > wrote: >> >> Hello, >> >> >> >> does anyone here know how to fix a laptop DC power jack? its a >> >> toshiba satellite. >> >> >> >> would be willing to pay... >> >> >> >> -jmz >> >> --- >> >> PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us >> >> To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: >> >> http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss >> >> >> > >> > >> > >> > -- >> > A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from >> > rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button. >> > >> > Stephen >> > --- >> > PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us >> > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: >> > http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss >> > >> --- >> PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us >> To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: >> http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss > > > > -- > :-)~MIKE~(-: > > --- > PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: > http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss > --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
Re: fixing laptop jack

Re: fixing laptop jack
