    I learned a lot from this channel... I even bought a microscope and a full set of tools because I loved what I 've learned here and I enjoy applying it in real life.. I am not in repairs field but I can tell you that I have saved a lot of money by repairing my stuff myself and for the relatives too..

    Hi Alex can you please please make a quick video about how to inject voltage and where you inject it, eg through a test probe or alligator clip, and a video about how you check mosfets would also be awesome!
    Some quickie type videos, would be a fantastic addition to your channel!.
    Keep up the amazing work my friend.

    Going back and looking at footage from the first part of the video you can tell that trace to pin 8 is broken close to the pad. It is so hard to notice and I never would have seen it until you started testing and had issues. Crazy it's hard to see even under the microscope. Excellent repair as always!

    I thoroughly enjoy your videos. Not only does it help gain more knowledge on how to approach an electronics challenge, you provide valuable insight as to how you work more efficiently. I do miss a lot of sleep, because I am in a different timezone very often. And even though shipping stuff from your shop to me (Amsterdam region, The Netherlands) will be quite a substantial factor, I still feel you deserve our loyalty for all the educational things you post on a regular basis. Keep it up, Alex!
    At present, I am both working and vacationing in Hong Kong and Philippines. It is already close to 6AM. I'll hit the sheets when your video is done. Sending kindest regards from Manila. ;-)
    One more thing ... Thank you so much, shukran habibi, merci beaucoup!

    Wait ... there are people who dislike you promoting your very own shop? What do these ppl do with other ppls videos who have sponsors? I cannot wrap my head around that. Your repairs provide me with valuable insights into all parts of electronics. And if I ever plan to get into repairing I would by the stuff you use, all the better buying directly from you.
    Please keep up the great work.

Being a person who can never find the right tool and in the has to build something himself I enjoy knowing where to get the great tools you use .

    At 4:18, I already noticed that the track to pin 8 was broken. I thought it was because of the glare from the light. Still, I wondered, if you would notice it, if it was indeed broken. I remember that normally you only look at physical integrity of the pins (correct me if I am wrong). But in the end, you did look at continuity of all the pins before sending it to Big Boss. Thankfully, because that would be a waste of your time. That just shows again what a genius you are. Every time I learn more from you! Thanks!

    Alex it's strange that you mentioned where you're from because I was thinking to myself yesterday where are you from? So my question basically got answered today in this video thank you 😃. Keep up the good work and don't worry about Negative people they are just jealous of your success and your trade.
    Knowing that you're from Lebanon is awesome, I'm from JOHANNESBURG South Africa.
