What are the chances..
« on: February 19, 2014, 11:17:43 am »
Hey guys, I dont post here often, but just figured this was funny.

I've been working on a large printer with a switchmode supply thats gone wrong and im doing inital diagnosis.
I said to myself "Ive seen enough EEVBlog videos to know I should check my digitech and replace it with something else."

Punch some search criteria into youtube (australia, used under $100) and who pops up?

Well he didn't buy that boatload of stuff just to hoard it :)

Or maybe you are just rubbing it in that the rest of us don't get a shot at it ;)

Dave's other Youtube account is called Altzone and that lab looks VERY familiar.

I went to an auction of a company closing down a few years back.. was sad really.
Makes me wonder though where you need to be on the lookout for news of these sell offs.

from what i remember from the video all of the ones he got were silk screened with the department of defense branch on them. also, i know he did a whole video on how he cleaned them up and removed all of the sticker residue, and the pone in the auction looks awfully dirty and is still covered in labels.  thats why i wouldnt think it was his.
