That feeling of dawning realisation when repairing an item of electronics that just won’t flipping well work… and you spy the component on the bench that you were supposed to solder in last time. #makershour #electronicrepair #soldering #jbl #muppet
So, I bought myself a pair of #JBL #TuneBuds Bluetooth earbuds at a Best Buy yesterday. I had been looking at these some time ago, and after my fiasco with the TOZO T21, I am very happy with these earbuds, especially since they work independently (my old Soundcore Liberty Neo ones didn't). Cost me $99 + tax, but totally worth it!
A few days ago my son’s #JBL #BT510 #Bluetooth headphones decided to stop charging, rendering them useless. They are only 2 years old. A wire trace with a simple continuity tester showed that the 5-conductor super-ultra-thin cable that snakes through the headband and connects the left and right sides was damaged somewhere along its length such that the battery was no longer able to report its health to the charge controller. This failure is a textbook case of #plannedobsolescence.
