    Element brand TV, decent or dud?

    Catching up on Christmas shopping, just curious if Element brand TVs could be expected to last for a few to several years. I seen a 39” model no. ELEFW3916 at Walmart for $200.
    Also seen a Insignia 39” model no. NS-39DR510NA17 for $200 also.
    It’s for a bedroom so maybe running for a couple hours per day.
    Thank You!

      1.5 to 2 years max. Keep backlight level down u should be ok.
      Did I leave the soldering iron on?

          Wow, that’s not good. I may have to re think things a bit. Thanks!

              Here in oz I tell people if your TV capital cost is $100/150 per year of life well that is cheap entertainment. After all you may pay $50 to go to a live sporting game one off - how many can you see for free on the TV. Horses for courses!

                  That’s one way to look at it. The tightassity I have would like it to last longer though. Maybe go with Samsung or Toshiba and drop to 720p to keep the cost down?

                      So...
                      As far as quality goes, who sucks the least?
                      Visio, Toshiba, Sharp, Samsung or Sanyo?

                          Also, 720p/1080p doesn't matter much on a small 32” panel, correct?

                              BEST 505 Vs Mechanic Brand Reballing Balls with Lead
                              by Stanley1843
                              Hello,
                              has anyone use these Brands of solder balls? The brand BEST writes on the label of the jar the specs of the solder balls instead of the Mechanic brand. I beleive that BEST brand must be more professional (in labeling at least) but I have never try one of them so I would like your opinion. By the way I hardly can I find the Mechanic brand in aliexpress (the only where I found was lead free solder balls) and on ebay these that I found are approximately15USD per jar. If you know any other trusted brand of solder balls please tell me.

                              There is a motherboard Gigabyte H610M S2H V2 (DDR5), I can't find boardview
                              Help to identify the element, marking on the element - C31PH. It stands next to the USB 3.0 and it looks like it is ESD Protect chip. We need a datasheet to this element. Maybe someone has already identified such an element. Help please.​

                              The best way to drive a heating element?
                              by EasyGoing1
                              I've got this circuit that I've been playing with on a breadboard. I'm not happy with it mainly because the MOSFET gets too hot and generally controlling the temp of the heating element with the Arduino has proven to be a little more cumbersome than I would like.

                              What I would like to know, is what is the best way to set up a circuit like this? The heating element is just a PCB and its going to be mounted under a 3D-printed enclosure that a lizard will use to warm his belly.

                              This is the general setup that I have now.

                              I was Ollie today which is a close out / surplus outlet store I do not go in there to often because you find things that you should not be tempted by but that is a another story

                              I saw a small space heater that used a wire type of heater element which I been looking for a while but not really hard mind you but when I saw this I grabbed it I going to go back tomorrow and buy the last one that is like the one I bought today because I need the heater element and the ceramic insulators and more of heat element wire because this one has two different wattage settings one 1300 watts ( tap...
