Quick Refurbishing of HP 5381A
« on: April 04, 2015, 02:59:28 am »
A bargain off ebay (USD 20) for an 'as is' HP 5381A.
A few stickers, a few funny LED segments (fixed by cleaning off some old flux and a re-solder or two) but no major catastrophes.
Techniques, general cleaning melamine sponge and IPA, Mothers Back to Black for front panel.
Before 1st Three pictures, After is the last one
Whoah! Watch where that landed we might need it later.

Yea I saw those on eBay. Good cleaning job.
I told my friends I could teach them to be funny, but they all just laughed at me.

Thanks, inspired by yours and Robrenz et al efforts.
I am a bit of a red LED fan.
Whoah! Watch where that landed we might need it later.
