- In this video I make a simple but useful cable that has 4mm banana plugs on one end and a standard 5.5mm x 2.1mm DC plug for use in electronics repair. This cable allows you to use your bench power supply to supply voltage to various devices that you want to repair. This combined with a set of universal laptop plug adapters will let you power laptops from lots of manufacturers as well as handheld game consoles, ear buds and much more. Very handy if you are a hobby electronics tinkerer or a professional.

I realize I said “ground” when I should have said “minus” for the white wire. Habit from working on laptops too much.
I'm glad someone can do a video on this topic 🤣
I tried a couple of times, and hated them.
LOL I actually had to make this video twice. The first one somehow had the audio of one of my videos mixed in. I contemplated scrapping the idea after that. I was so mad cause it was a great demo, when I went to render it I could hear my voice in the background. I figured it was quick and I have plenty of the parts sitting around, I did another take. I love building all of my own cables for stuff like this. If I may ask, why did you hate them? Just not that interested?
@@optimizelogicrepair2784 Demos require a bit different approach than what I do normally.
More planning, parts, progression.
It's not something I've figured out yet.
Repair content writes itself.
