    It's a classic to pick up, wipe, dust, gently turn on antique electrical appliances such as tube radios, tube amps, see if it still works or not. .I believe that many people Probably love it like me.

      I’m SUCH a fan for old radios 📻. Quality went into radios 📻 many years ago. Try to shop for one ☝️ of these at Walmart (you can’t). Tube type radios 📻 were one ☝️ of the best. Turn the ON/OFF volume control knob 🎛️ to “ON”, and the radio 📻 will come to life ( maybe 🤔 half a minute). Your friend, Jeff.

      Absolutely!!!!
      Except for the very high end, most audio gear today is not even feasible to repair and are pretty much disposable after warranty.

    Poison rip d Ox? lol What are you using in place of d Ox? Also which d ox are you replacing? Contact cleaner? Potentiometer cleaner?

    • @Tinybench
      @Tinybench  Год назад

      Hello teammate! It’s D-Oxid
      It’s a popular contact contact cleaner that contains a small amount of lubricant.
      I put it in a dropper for a controlled application. Specially, indoors for just one pod . If I am working on a unit with a few pods. I take it outside to the terrace and use the can with its straw.
      The stuff is very toxic so I keep it away from my lungs and skin, which is a sponge that absorbs everything and we don’t realize.
      I do the same thing with WD-40 lubricant .

      Hello teammate!
      thank you thank you thank you so much for watching my video.
      I hear W-40 works great from several people. I always have D-Oxid so use it and it works very well as well plus it’s engineered for pots!
      It contains oil as well, so the D-Oxid could also attract dust but then again, I never had a problem with that.

    35z5 has blown filaments all the time due to blown light bulbs. Half of it filament dies if bulb is dead. and if put his in a radio with good bulb, it blows the bulb! very dangerous design for bulbs
