Old Ultrabook, New Tricks. Gen4 Thinkpad X1 Carbon
I recently picked up a gen4 (2016) Lenovo X1 Carbon Ultrabook. While it is no spring chicken, I think it is still pretty darn awesome. Join me as I try to spruce this thing up a bit and get Manjaro Linux installed.

From Idea to PCB - Learn-to-solder badge

C16 SaRuMan-TED 64K Upgrade Testing🔧 For RetroCombs
Просмотров 3413 месяца назад
@retroCombs asked if I could check out his SaRuMan 64K upgrade module. I got my dusty & neglected yet to be restored C16 out of the pile and onto the bench to give it a test for him. Of course this also brought to light the sad shape of my own C16. This is a very non-elegant round of chip swapping madness. The state of my own C16 remains questionable but in the end I think we can feel fairly co...

Network Controlled RGB LEDS with WLED! (2023)
I’ve been using the online simulator together with the reference manual for quite some time now. It works flawlessly (as far as I am able to tell) and is surprisingly good fun.
@@jimsimpson1006 right on that is great to hear! Glad you're having fun with it!
had the exact same issue. Fix worked like a charm, much appreciated!
@@bigv4 Glad you got yours fixed! Thanks for watching and commenting with your results!
Great bargain! How much to max out the nvme?
@@chucksgarage-us that is a good question. I'm still running the nvme it came with I should look at pricing and also make sure there aren't any size limits (besides physical! 😄) thx for watching!
great video and good cleanup on the damaged board. I highly recommend adding a wire from the relay pin to the other side of the trace (there are 2 pins - either will work). Whirlpool designers didn't do a great job of making that pc board. That trace is carrying a lot of current and designers didn't make that trace large enough. add the wire so you don't have to fix it more than once.
@@schuholzjohn3625 thanks for watching and great advice to make up for that trace.
Worked! Thank you!
@@sinenkoalexander Awesome! You're welcome!
you turned a beautiful machine into a gaudy mess
i have a thinkpad t450, i7 5600u
@@adithyan-exe That's a good one! I've had a few over the years. My most recent other ones were a t420 and t460.
Enjoyed this one. TLA watched it with me! I am curious how you fixed the nub, though. Im also interested in replace the battery in my Lenovo now. Seemed easy enough.
@@retroCombs the nub comes off pretty easy. I did take that from the donor keyboard. Thanks for watching!
Sweet! I've gotten a couple older Dell Optiplex systems recently I have plans for 😉 Also use an older MacBook Pro on our dinner table for watching stuff while we eat!
Nice! RetroMacPro dinner theater!
I'd rather have a used Lenovo over a new $200 laptop every day of the week. They are just good laptops.
Hey we still need to try that DMR qso one of these days! 😂
@@JamiesHackShack I agree. I did a club presentation and my hotspot was dead. I need to resurrect it. I'll try to fix it in the next week. Have you been on much? I have repeaters that cover my house, but BM messed up the TG so I don't know what it is now
@@rufusrizzo78 I'll be honest I've not messed with it much at all since a few weeks after posting that video. I'm anxious to see if anyone out at defcon is playing with this stuff in the ham village this weekend.
Currently I'm watching this on a 14" Dell Latitude E6420 from 2011, that I got from the ShopGoodwill online store for less than $100. It's pretty beat up, and has an optical drive so it's not quite thin and light, but with Debian 12 (GNOME desktop / Wayland) on an SSD with an i7-2720QM, it absolutely flies - I am gobsmacked at the performance. RUclips videos are no problem on the 1440x900 screen. I just hope its 8 gigs of RAM stay usable for the foreseeable future, allegedly it can handle more even though the specs say 8 GB is the max.
Right on! Sounds like a good one ready to keep on trucking! Thanks for watching!
Great video! Excellent seeing old laptops up and running. I have a 2013 14-inch Alienware running Linux Mint. I upgraded the ram to 32gb and put in a 1TB ssd drive. Works awesome. Thanks for sharing
Hey Rudy thanks for watching! I remember the Alienware stuff always being the bees knees. 32G of ram! Wow nice!
They are such nice machines. The 1440 display is a nice bonus! Also, I need to send you some BigBadBench stickers!
@@BigBadBench They are! I must be getting old though I think I need to scale the fontage up just a smidge! 😂 And I would love some stickers. I can send a sase if you want some of mine! I can hit you up on discord.
Hey Jamie. I've noticed you've missed something during the refurb... --- No RetroCombs stickers!
@@mkrleza Hey Mislav! You're right! There are a few others I need to get on here.
@@JamiesHackShackI can hook you up if you want one.
My Executive Producer looking out for me. 😂
@@retroCombs More likely, one Exec discreetly correcting another... LMAO

Hello!! great video! I works with Raspberry Pi Zero W?
Hey thanks for watching! Yes should be good to go with a Zero W. Zero 2 W would be even better with a little more horsepower.
M48118-100PC1 this is what I have Is the one on mouser electronics compatible in your opinion?
@@alow2323 I used that one(the mouser one I linked to) at the time in my ss5 and it worked. I can recheck. May take me a day or two.
@@JamiesHackShack that would be great It is going in a royal vending machine if that helps Wish I could show you a picture but it looks similar but don’t they all
How much would you charge to put one on for me?
@@alow2323 Hey, I'm sorry but currently that is not something I'm up for doing. I don't want to be on the hook for anything like that but my own stuff. :-) For your application do you have a way to reload whatever the settings are once you get it replaced or a battery tacked onto it?
@@JamiesHackShack yes I have to manually set the prices all over again if the machine is ever unplugged, not a big deal, but it is time-consuming
Has anyone tried linking two scopes together to read SDA & SCL channels for i2c debugging ? I've got two and I'm building a mobile scope setup
@@0ffGridTechClub I feel like the creator said that was possible.
@@JamiesHackShack I do recall that 😀 I'm putting together a mini pelican case + RPi5 + a separate small project box that contains the dual scopes, might run the two USB channels over eth back to the RPi5 pelican for the display. (Ive been finding I need to debug i2c in some tight spaces, the dual channels + the dual logic analzyer inputs = kewl stuff ). I'm also gonna incorporate some INA219 /3221 / HallAffect i2c based sensors + a Max 3 wire temp probe 😵💫😂
@@0ffGridTechClub that sounds awesome!
@@JamiesHackShack Thank you ! Keep up the great videos
@@0ffGridTechClub You are very welcome. Thanks for watching and I hope to!
Dude! Worked like a charm - same pin blown. Worked great.
@@henrygarcia4438 right on! Glad you got it fixed!
Cool video; I think you need to turn on power after you connect the device and turn on the main device you want to connect to... If you turn on the TTYGO first then it won't work via serial. BTW these boards are sold for like 10 dollars usually; the whole kit content is not even 20 bucks in parts, so I would say that the 50 bucks for the kit seems a bit steep
I'm inspired to dig out my ZX81. I had a lot of fun with it, including modding it to 2K.
Go for it! Thanks for watching!
I am much excite about the colors and arts happening here
I love the Jolt cola graphic on the back .🔥🔥
Same. That was a blast from the past for me!
This is a sci-fi stellar project box!! Endless creativity and so fitting for the DC32!! 🤖 Fantastic video, thanks so much!
Always love seeing the unboxing and exploring of projects.
So glad you get to finally experience DefCon! I’m definitely gonna go check out those exclusive Defcon kits! 👾
@@DarkAngelVNV thank you! Make sure to say hey!
Looks like a fun box. I like how the boards connect together.
It is for sure. Yeah the whole sao aspect is pretty darn neat.
Thank you Jamie for another great Hack shack video! I am new to soldering and watching your videos and following along with the hackerboxes has been an awesome learning experience! A buddy of mine has expressed interest in learning how to solder it wold be fun to put this box together. Thank you and the Hackerbox team for putting these giveaways together. You guys are great. Fingers crossed 🤞
@@paulfulton4989 Thanks so much for watching! Get that friend soldering before they change their mind! Good luck!
Look who got all fancy with special effects and branding at the beginning of the video. Nice. Another fun Hakerbox!
@@retroCombsI wish it tracked a little better but perfect is the enemy of done and it was becoming a time sink. There's some masking a little later too. 😂 Thanks for watching!
Wish I could have made it to DefCon this year. Next year then!
That is the spirit! I've been wanting to go since I first heard about it way back when but knew I'd not be l33t enough and would have major imposter syndrome. I'm happy to be able to finally cross this off my bucket list. Maybe I'll even get to go more than once. :D Thanks for watching!
I can't find an 8gb microsd card to save my life these days😂.
This box is awesome. I love the nostalgia in this one. 🤙🏾
Great vid... this is a cool box. ❤#BadgeLife
Thank you so much! And I agree on the box. Love these full color pcbs peeps are making.
Excellent and fun!! Thanks for sharing
and thank you for watching!
Another cool kit and review!
Hey Eric! Thanks for watching and commenting sir!
I really need to up my soldering game, which is to say I have no soldering game, so anything would be a step up. Enjoyed the video, including the mistakes. Appreciate the gotchas as well; would not have thought to break in the mating connectors to avoid ripping them off the board.
Yeah those sao connections can benefit from a little pre-use break-in for sure! Warm up that iron and find something to practice on. The more you do it the easier it gets and the better you get! Thanks for watching!
I liked this project. I put some "Spaghetti" on the long LED leads just to protect them from shorting.
@@jayare3167 that's a great idea!
Back again to remind people Jaime's Hackshak is the place to get hackerbox build videos! nothing better on youtube like it. (Fingers crossed to win Finances force me to put my sub on hold)
Thanks so much for the support! Maybe on the 19th the random picker will pick you!
See you at DEFCON!
🤘
Cool little badge.
I can't wait to see what people come up with for full color circuit boards. Pretty awesome.
For sure, they do look really cool!
I wasn't really all that hyped to build this one, but then the ESPs ended up making it a very interesting/educational project. Can hardly wait to see what's in the next one!
For sure, I want to dig into that ESPNOW protocol/system and see how that works when I get some spare cycles. That was kinda neat.
holy crap, I wanted to get one of those HBC56 kits when Troy showed them off, just hadn't gotten around to it. see HB still has a few left, hmmmm.
I still have some on Tindie too. Can't post a link here though.
@@TroySchrapel yeah I just noticed that. Got the Hackerbox one, and am currently putting it together (hopefully one of my keyboards has a PS/2 mode, lol) I might even get one from you later, just to make a nicer job of soldering that microSD slot. I got it though! my GOD that part was hard.... I've never used Flux before and now I understand why y'all say to use it. It's amazing even in pen form.
This kit has won. It has broken me. SD card mount fell off while I was fighting with the video circut resistors, because it either wouldn't stick, or bridge. I have no idea why the solder does this, but if ANYTHING in here is connected properly I'd be shocked. I've managed to put pins on my arduinos, and re-solder a thing or two but this is just too damn much. Ohwell.
@@DFX2KX If you're willing to persist, I'm happy to send you a new PCB with the SDCard connector pre-soldered for the price of postage only. Unfortunately, I'm in Australia, so that would be ~$15USD. If you need any of the other parts (resistors, etc.) that might need replacing, I can throw those in too.
@@TroySchrapel Yeah I did get it to stick again, partially.... But ultimately lost the war when it came to the 2N4401 for the keyboard. My eyes and tiny parts, man. Thanks for the offer, but I'll pay regular rate when I can get to it. Not your fault my eyes aren't great. That risk was calculated, :P It is smaller than it looks... I ended up jumping on it as a project in between packing sessions. After I get settled from the move, I'll order a complete one from ya (those caps and that transistor are freaking tiny as well) and I'll use this board as *de* soldering practice. I suspect I wouldn't have had nearly as many issues if I had gotten whatever Gel flux is being used here. And one of those magnifier/helping-hands combos. That too.
These boxes are fun. I'll probably start getting them after I move, would be great practice to alleviate my horrible Solder skills.
They are fun for sure! Hey, the more you solder, the better you get. Just take your time and don't get frustrated if it's not going your way. Take a step back and revisit after break.
@@JamiesHackShack The trick being to get myself to actually *sit still* long enough to do it. I watch these videos on the treadmill, and every time I'm not cleaning, working, or working out, I feel like I'm being unproductive. Having a Temu soldering iron with questionable temperature control probabbly doesn't help me either, lol.

I haven't seen a jolt cola in so very long. Same thing with Bawls. I loved that one.
I thought Jolt was gone but evidently you can still get it at dollar general! Now Bawls, I've mail ordered that direct and gotten cases from micro center. :-D
@JamiesHackShack being in Hawaii, neither store is an option. Hopefully, they will open up a Microcenter someday. I call it the paradise tax. Damn near, everything costs more here, and we can't buy batteries in bulk. I can't even order batteries for my projects through Amazon. I've been putting my own packs together with recycled cells. 😂😮💨 At least that part has been fun. I got a battery tab welder, too. I might just do a short on that, but we'll see.
@@TheGeekiestGuy yeah, but Hawaii! Wow! Awesome on hacking together your own packs. 🤘👍
@JamiesHackShack thanks bud. If you ever want a hula girl for your dashboard or something, just reach out. I use the same name on literally everything. Maybe I can send a pineapple 🍍 too. 🤙🏾 Ooh, I live about 15 minutes from an active volcano, so if you ever come to the big island, hit me up. Take you on a tour.
