What I'm up to….
The intent of this portable kit is to be able to make electronics projects anywhere I go.
The basics are in oscilloscope multimeter soldering equipment some parts and micro controllers. With these or do we know parts in a laptop computer I can build just about anything at least to the prototype phase
With a small amount of money you can re-create this kit with your own equipment starting small you can build it up as I did. check out the video for full instructions.
This USB powered temperature controlled soldering iron actually works pretty well. The TS 800 might be a better choice but this is a lot cheaper and does the job just fine. I really like the non-temperature controlled USB soldering iron’s that are much cheaper but they don’t have temperature control and this one seems to do the job just great
In this video we set up a portable electronics lab anyone can build anywhere
Eric wanted to have a portable electronics lab inside of a pelican case in this video we start setting it up with all the components needed for a portable electronics lab with soldering equipment oscilloscope meter and much more.
Many more tools can be added to this kit depending on the use case.
If you want to focus more on repairs then you’ll probably want to add more tools to this kit instead of the diagnostic equipment. Amor feature filled oscilloscope might be handy to have as well.
Stay tuned for part two of this video covering All the equipment in much more detail will test us in future episodes as well.
Eric tries out different ways to use the solder reflow hot plate and see how well it works. The hot plate is really handy and much smaller than a reflow oven
