//This is not a usual video for the channel, but is a bit of fun playing with a two person filming format.//
Nine months ago BlackView kindly sent the BV8800 Rugged phone to MFS, and we've been trying to destroy it for AGES! I used it during the reconstruction work on the house and it survived well. Then I passed it over to Lala - The MOST DESTRUCTIVE PERSON I KNOW!!!
Big thanks to Lala and David for the violent handset treatment. Massive thanks to Sharon Yang at BlackView for the opportunity to do this video (and her patience!)
Here are the product links should you be interested.
For UK customers: https://amzn.to/3C7qNT8
For USA customers: https://amz.run/60NI
(Prices have likely risen a bit due to global markets since I got the handset.)
//Feedback on the video format really welcome. I'm looking to have guests in some future restro restoration content so I'm practicing!//

Join me as we look at a leaky Amiga A500 Memory expansion, the A501 from Commodore! We caught this one in time, so we remove the battery and clean up the alkaline mess. Finally we test the machine with some fun 1 meg only magazine game demos from the early 90's!

A quick unboxing, assembly and power on of the Tenma Digital ESD Soldering Station (21-10115 UK)
This will be featured in all future soldering videos, so you'll be able to see how it performs!
Item is (at time of publishing) cheapest to get from CPC Farnell, in the UK at least at just £41.94 delivered!

Seems good so far. Let's see how it pans out in real usage!

This is an unexpected pickups vid from yesterday. I saw a post on Freegle saying that there was a box of Nintendo/Playstation stuff on offer and I replied... What I got was genuinely AMAZING - well, to me anyway...
This is a LIVE box opening. I miss the jewel in the crown and get excited about a fairly common title. I'm not really a game collector so please don't judge me :P
Join me on this box opening adventure of epic awesomeness! My next video will be a fixing vid, I promise ;)

Following on from my last video where I received a beaten up old Spectrum +3 for spares, I now venture inside the machine and see what that hideous rattling is, and also try a fairly stupid and ill-advised power on.

I thought we could do a little project to make our own Amstrad GX4000 (and CPC Plus) cartridges.
I didn't want to butcher any existing cartridges, so in this video there is a bit of everything; Converting ROM files, Programming EPROMs, 3D Printed Casing, Soldering, Photoshop design, Label Printing and Play Testing.
As always, I'm standing on the shoulders of giants and the things featured in this video are listed below. I hope you enjoy the video and thank you for keeping the channel alive ❤

In this video we fix the Time/Date problem with the Sega Dreamcast, as well as fixing the dead controller issue found in so many machines. For fun we also change the colour of the LED and for completeness we refresh the capacitor on the controller board!

In this "crappily shot" video, I briefly try Super Cobra on the MSX before I realise it's too hard for me and silent-rage-quit. ***I TRY NOT TO SWEAR IN THIS ONE***
