  • In this video, I'll show you how to upgrade any old USB device to USB-C for less than $1. I'll guide you through the process step-by-step. As an example, we'll use a faulty Blue Yeti microphone I bought on eBay for $30, including shipping.

    LOL reminds me of raspberry pi 4 engineers.
    You need 2x 5.1k resistors on both CC1 AND CC2 separately, You can't short them together and use 1 resistor.
    BTW, I see aliexpress has boards with 2 pads, seems like your board is an old revision. Some have resistors already soldered.

      Hi Jackie! Yes, I know this setup isn't ideal, but I haven't found any issues with it so far. Do you have a link to the upgraded boards you mentioned? I would update the product links to make things even easier! 😉

    Came across your channel recently and have came back to your videos for learnjng different things. I have a question. Do you know of a 6 pin type c breakout board with 2 spots for the 5.1 surface mount resistors? Trying to put one in my 3ds and make it able to do c to c charging as well as a to c charging. I have found some that others have built specifically for the 3 ds but they get rather expensive if doing more than one

      Hi Knuckles! Thanks for your support, it means a lot to me. 😍 Do you have a link to these breakout boards? But why wouldn’t it work? ;-)

      @@CanWeFixThat I will look for the link of the ones I had found a month or two ago, I just got a pcb etching kit and am going to try to make the board myself so it doesn't get too pricey that way, but I just wanted to see if you knew of one I could purchase like from Amazon or something that just would have made it easier because the 5.1 surface mount resistors are so small my hands start to shake when trying to mess with them lmao

    I'm looking to get a similar microscope setup, however your link for the 180x lens points to a page with two items that are listed as "180X 50mm", but look very different. One is 45USD, the other is 102USD. Which is it? Also, do you have links for the light ring and articulating arm mount you are using? Thanks!

    • @CanWeFixThat
      @CanWeFixThat  2 месяца назад

      Hi Andrew! I looked it up, it's the 180x, third from the left in the selection. I updated the video description with the info about the light ring. The articulating arm I'm using is a DIY solution from an old computer screen table mount-not recommendable. ^^
