I remove the insides of a dead-ish TrippLite ISOBAR power strip and it’s probably good to fall asleep to.

Mouse Repair – Razer Deathadder Left-Handed Edition Scroll Wheel
I repair the scrollwheel on a Razer Deathadder Left-Handed mouse after dropping a hard drive on it. Check the chapters to skip right to the solution.
This is after doing a hardware button swap on that same mouse: https://youtu.be/n00ioWfDE9k
Automatic Transfer Switches! (Feat. Server Technology Fail-Safe and Tripp Lite PDUMH20ATNET)
I look at automatic transfer switches from Server Technology, Inc. and TrippLite and describe why you might want one.
Trying out the Unihertz Titan on Google Fi
I test out the Unihertz Titan phone on Google Fi to see if it’s worth it as my wife’s new daily driver.
Exploring the Sonic Foundry Mediasite Recorder from 2008ish
I open up this device from the past to see what it was all about, and how useful the chassis might be for modern purposes.
This is the edited version of a live stream I did almost 2 years ago (just got around to it), so if you want to see all the faffing that went into it, a recording of double the length is available here: https://youtu.be/4_xDG0fsMU4
Mysterious Test Box Assembly
I assemble a small 240V 30A distribution box for some future purposes.
Addtam Power Strips with USB
I test out the USB ports on a couple of Addtam power strips, then for good measure I take them apart and lecture everyone about the importance of non-shite power strips. How fun?
DMX for the Basement – Chauvet DJ DMX-4 and ADJ myDMX-RM
I wanted more control over the lighting in my basement “studio”, and decided to invest in a few dimmer/switch packs as well as a USB rack-mount DMX controller.
How and Why to Backup your Data
This is another backing-up-your-data rant, but even though I’m posting this second it technically comes first in the order of shooting. And I think it’s a bit more informative and organized. So if you only watch one rant about backups this year, make it this one.
Viva 2018.
Banggood USB and Multi Meters (TOPK, MUSTOOL MT007, ANENG 620A)
I fancied buying a couple of USB cables with in-built power meters, as well as a pair of multimeters with interesting aspects. For some reason all the brand names are capitalized in real life; I didn’t do that just for the title. I’m not yelling, I promise.
