no, for an iron i would recommend the pinecil its a very good iron. do not get one of those ones that just plug into a wall and have no temp controls that youll find in the store https://pine64.com/product/pinecil-smart-mini-portable-soldering-iron/ you can use your switch charger to power it
thanks my frd for the answer and the recommendation. im far from the US so i ordered Ali stuff and i bought a temp controlled iron that seems ok for 45$.
There was no reason for him to swap the serial numbers and return it as defective when he could have just returned the original one as defective. How is this confusing?
People using mod chips is what it is, but if you break your console trying to install one yourself that's not the manufacturers fault. That's your own fault. Then again I successfully modded my oled without issue so whatever.
This used to be a huge thing for people to do way back in the ps2/Xbox days with broken consoles and they'd swap the cases and return as a repeat gift, it would then go back on the shelf for an unsuspecting consumer to purchase.
It's basically a better version of the TS-100 & uses the same tips.
Depends when the original was bought, if he broke it the day after buying it or something like that then sure he could’ve returned the original rather than buying a replacement And replacing the dead one as the if it was the new one, but I’m assuming based on the OPs on post the one he broke is older than 15 to 30 days (The typical return. For electronics at most stores)
but assuming the dead one was older than its return Period (which is very likely because the switch OLED has been out since early October) then he was required to swap the serial number to ensure that he would get away with the return. (for reasoning see above)
Typically things aren’t returned as repeat gift when you’re trying to do return fraud.
The main reason there’s more scrutiny, it’s easier to say that it’s defective, There’s less likelihood anyone will want to test features Etc.
year-round defective returns are more common, the only time there’s a major uptick in “repeat gift“ excuse is November to January and that’s because of holiday return Periods at most retailers Being more lax ( it’s really the rental Period For the unscrupulous.)
and while I have seen returns at my various jobs over the years that were falsely returned during the holiday return period it’s hard to say what percentage it would be because there are plenty of legit gift returns but once again that’s not the real point because usually once again people return claiming it’s defective More often than not.
it’s also Arguably the more moral option because you know you’re not gonna be screwing over anyone else. (for reasoning see above)
Hi. I might purcase an original SXOS for my OLED. What would be the cables to use with the original SXOS core? I mean the ribbons and DAT0 ribbon too.
I succefully instaled on my switch, but i have a hard work to put her to operate correctly with the console
I hope you meant SX Lite. I have installed a few sx core, never a good experience.
Why not just do the regular OLED ones, I have done 30+ of those one already and pretty reliable
Because I could get this one for like 100$. Way cheaper
What is it so hard about it?
I meant this one:
Dont do itBecause I could get this one for like 100$. Way cheaper
What is it so hard about it?
I meant this one:
Does it looks like there is solder mask on it already? If it is the original SX core. You could try it without the resistor trick firstBecause I could get this one for like 100$. Way cheaper
What is it so hard about it?
I meant this one:
I'm not aware of that. I intend to use that gold ribbon to avoid to solder wires underneath the chip. I don't have everything I need to do remove and solder back the DAT0 line chip. So, what are we talking about here?
A timing or voltage issue?
What about the SX core with OLED? What is the reason to avoid?
