      I'm 50/50. Cool idea, but a laser that can do that in close proximity to eyes rings alarm bells.

          I agree - been watching assorted videos and the DIY projects all suggest safety eye wear. Am tempted but already have floaters from being hit in the face from bad volleyball days so will wait and see.

          Also, what is it doing to the internals of the BGA devices ? Is it safe for the internal bonding wires ? hmm..

              No captions but plenty of comments questioning the safety with the poster saying the manufacturer should include safety glasses.

              An interesting thing to keep an eye on, I want to see better videos.

                  That is insane, watching it though an optical magnifier too!
                  Don't even think about using this thing without eye protection, it will make you blind!

                      Even by the way he uses the tweezers, picking up discrete components by the soldered ends, one can tell he's

                          Hilti PD30 Laser Range meter Error 276
                          by Dannyx
                          Good day folks.....wow, seems like forever since I posted anything here Still alive and well, thank you I guess you could say I've become more independent and able to work stuff out on my own. This one though goes way over my head and I doubt is fixable, but maybe some bright spark out there has an equally bright idea.

                          So: my Hilti PD30 laser meter quit on me just the other day. It was working fine, I set it down for a while and when I tried using it again it gave me an E276 and wouldn't do anything else. I tried taking out the batteries, all that standard stuff but nothing...

                          Elitebook 840 G5 Bios Chip Soldering Question
                          by Azurain
                          Hi everyone,

                          I have an HP Elitebook 840 G5 that I am trying to get working again. I've removed the front bios chip (the 32mb one) and have run it through HP unlocker already. I've uploaded and verified the new bin, but am now experiencing an issue that has led me to believe I've been soldering the chip back to the motherboard incorrectly.

                          Essentially, after re-soldering the chip back into its place and reassembling the laptop, the charging light immediately flashes orange and white and then shifts to a solid white. The capslock and numlock lights blink seven times...

                          ITE IT8390 (IT8390E-256) programmer "ITE Download Board 4" user manual + firmware, flashing ITE ECs on the cheap
                          by H34TO
                          Recently I've gotten into EC flashing due to my broken laptop(s) and started frantically searching methods for flashing the IT5571E-128 chip on the cheap(due to me beaing a student and not having a job) and noticed that ITE newer chips can be flashed via ISP (In-System Programming) either via SMBus or the KBC (EPP - Enhanced Parallel Port) interface. While these can be achieved with programmers like SVOD4/3 or the RT809H/F those options are WAYYY out of my budget so I was horrified. But recently I stumbled uppon some programmers on aliexpress that claim they can program a variety of ITE chips...

                          Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
                          by acedogblast
                          This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

                          There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...
