DIY: Repair the Scarlett Hair Clipper

2017-03-29T04:05:00.000-07:00

The scarlett hair clipper has a simple ON and OFF switch hidden under the slide switch. The hair clipper after few switching On and Off will not work again...
I was wondering why the clipper will just stop working just like that...
I had two options:
1. Return it to the online merchant
2. Risk voiding my warranty by attempting a repair.

I opted to repair it, on opening it up I discovered that the ON and OFF switch has been displaced from its plastic support.
I got rid of the sliding switch and brought out the ON and OFF switch. I had to trim the opening for the sliding switch a little for the ON and OFF switch to sit firmly
I coupled everything back, connected the hair clipper to the mains socket and whirrrr ... I got my working clipper back!

Fixed FIL Powerbank

"The FIL power bank just stopped working," Esther said.
Well, it must have finished it's work ... nothing last forever anyway, I thought.

So, taken for dead it laid for days...until...

I prised it open. It took a while to get it open. The power bank casing is well designed and the parts fitted firmly together.

Figure 1 The FIL Power Bank

The circuit board as I expected contains a lot of SMD's, replacing part will be a difficult task. I noticed that the black wire that connects to the battery negative terminal is lose, could it be the culprit or it only came lose as I was trying to force the casing open?

It should be easy to find out. I held the wire to the battery negative terminal and used my other free hand to press the LED on off button...On came the light! I soldered the wire back in place and fitted everything back together.

Hopefully the power bank will give several years more of back-up power.

Curiosity Killed Wall Gecko?

I brought a Gent EN54 panel in for repairs. Whatever happened to this panel? The whole thing was dead. I opened it up, checked the power board and found that the main fuse (3.15A) is blown. I lifted out the whole power board and …

a dried up dead wall gecko reached out its forearm and said "I saw death and decided to take the power board with me."
