Re: Refreshing my AES stick
Really well made video. You have a good talking voice, and the explanations move ahead at a brisk pace which IMO is ideal for an instructional. I wish there were videos like this for the things I normally need help with 
EDIT: Just noticed the classic Bomberman music Thumbs up!

Oh hey,
i subscribed to your channel recently.
Nice video.
I'll have to do the same eventually, although i would use quick disconnects and i also wanna get something heavy like a metal plate inside, to stop these sticks from flying around.

Re: Refreshing my AES stick
Unfortunately my quick disconnects were too tall for the shell. I couldn’t fit the two halves back together. I could have ground the case (or disconnect posts) down a bit but in the end I just went solder to terminalMantrox wrote:Oh hey,

Re: Refreshing my AES stick
You can twist the legs of the buttons 90 degrees quite easily, that would be one way to adress it I suppose. Honestly, I don't think you need replacing buttons in a stick like this often enough for it to matter though. Desoldering something is only a tiny bit less inconvenient than unplugging it when you have to take apart the casing anyway.

That was my thought. It could be decades till I need to replace the buttons so solder really didn’t bother me too muchSumez wrote:You can twist the legs of the buttons 90 degrees quite easily, that would be one way to adress it I suppose.
