Comment on SMD Component Identification
bruce965@lemmy.ml 6 days agoIf not, why does your device have two power sources and one is not rechargeable. That’s a good question, and that’s also something else I didn’t think about. I just checked the instructions and it’s not clear. Perhaps it’s an alternative way to power it. I’ll be honest, this is a cheap device. I don’t want to fix it because it’s expensive, I want to fix it because I literally didn’t turn it on even once before blowing.
try image search Oh. My. God! It worked! How on earth could it know that this specific PCB is what it is? That’s black magic! It didn’t find this specific one, but it correctly classified it and it also found similar designs. Seems like that blown component actually is part of the charging circuit, as other similar designs omit it. I’ll try desoldering it and see if it works. Thank you very much for this suggestion, that blew my mind!
