For a sturdier heat band (but yea, this isn't being re-used), consider cutting an aluminium soda can into a strip perhaps four times the ferrite width - two careful folds using a metal ruler and you have a band. I've even considered using 12 awg solid copper wire scrap to make the band, which is even less work. For holding the iron, take a scrap of wood (say 1.2x6x20cm, though you could go longer) and close to one end auger/hole-saw a hole in it the diameter of the handle of the soldering iron (but smaller than the guard), pass the plug and handle of the iron through the hole. That piece of wood can be viced, clamped, screwed, or propped as needed (in my case, in a slightly pulled out drawer/tray underneath my workbench, with the soldering iron facing up). If necessary, you can cut a notch from an edge of the wood to the hole, so the cord can be slipped in (if your plug is much larger than the handle, or just for quicker insertion). If you have a ferrule crimping tool, this works good for crushing the aluminium into a cylinder that fits into the iron tip. If I were to be doing this often (say doing a lot of rework of a certain model device), I'd consider taking some copper stock and making a squared U to fit over the top of the transformer, with a threaded stud to connect to the iron (thus making it more of a Y), and holes near the ends of slightly extended sides (the "tops" of the U) with a suitable machine screw to pull them inwards. Then the band is reusable and if you set it up right, you can loosen the screw, remove the heated core, and insert another and re-fix the screw - obviously with screwdriver and pliers - without having to let the iron or band cool down between transformers - the built up heat in the band is still mostly there for the next transformer. This disposable band method works fine.
Hi... My Imax B6 AC charger, enter button is not working, i am pressing it for a second or pressing for long time let say 10-15 seconds but it is not working. Can you please let me know what is the issue.

⚠️ God has said in the Quran: 🔵 { O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous - ( 2:21 ) 🔴 [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allah equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him]. ( 2:22 ) 🔵 And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful. ( 2:23 ) 🔴 But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.( 2:24 ) 🔵 And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally. ( 2:25 ) ⚠️ Quran
Hi, I have this exact same camera from my dad. There are a lot of old tapes that I want to bring to my PC but I cannot find the batteries anywhere. I think they were thrown away by accident. I have the tapes, the camera, the battery charger, the FireWire cable needed. I cannot translate your video to understand how you can make a battery to work with this camera. I would really like to power this on and use it. If you could explain more, or give me a link for where I can find a battery replacement, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
Thank you. But my device notice “ volt error” when i charge balance Lipo 1ampe …(2s), confirm or cancel then warn “volt error”. And i charge two batteries connected in series i use power input 12v 120w , choose charging method pb battery, confirm and cancel, then notice volt error. Help me
Thank you for the video. You mention you're using a comparator to detect and signal the zero-point-crossings, but I don't see anywhere in the code that this is used. Could you explain?
