Dry joint example

Posted by: macclassic on 2018-11-14 15:30:37 I just want to share this superb example, no wonder my video had the jitters!

Posted by: superjer2000 on 2018-11-14 20:19:50 A zoomed out picture would be good so we can place where this joint is.   I'm assuming it's pin 1 of the four pin connector on the analog board.

Posted by: CC_333 on 2018-12-03 10:34:26 Wow! I thought it was a microscope or something! How much does that clip on lens cost? I ought to get one, as it appears to be, among other things, a useful diagnostic tool. c

Posted by: dcr on 2018-12-10 10:39:46 Shop carefully for those clip-on lenses.  I've been disappointed with the quality of mine.

Posted by: macclassic on 2018-12-10 23:26:39 Maybe a bit expensive for a clip-on lens?
