Finished Rewiring, Very Happy With The Results - eviltoast

With exception of the Mister, all consoles have either been modded or repaired. Bonus, everything is automated through Home Assistant so it will turn on the TV, switch inputs, and turn on the console, all via voiced controlled.

    Hey friend. So I’ve never soldered before really. I was looking at harbor freight and they have two types could you verify if I could use the cheaper one? I don’t fully know the differences. https://lemmy.today/pictrs/image/c5fa90cd-305e-499a-90ee-e1a9897793bc.jpeghttps://lemmy.today/pictrs/image/7c70f4ad-9267-4486-abdf-8ed568fa8f51.jpeg

      Hey! You can definitely use the cheaper one, it’s still a lead-free rosin core, but just doesn’t come with as much solder as the more expensive one. And you’ll use very little for a Tsop flash, not even a quarter of what’s in the cheaper one (even less than a quarter of it)
