Hunting down faults on VARTA bombed Commodore PC10-III
In this video, I hunt down faults on a VARTA-bombed Commodore PC10-III motherboard. I poke around the damaged vintage board with an oscilloscope, tracing broken signals and chips caused by the VARTA from hell. Ideal for fans of vintage computers, retro PCs, Commodore hardware, oscilloscope diagnostics, battery corrosion damage, old-school troubleshooting, DOS-era systems, and hands-on retro computing repair and preservation projects. - Support me on patreon.com/Epictronics Buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/epictronics - Tools I regularly use FNIRSI DWS-200 Solder station PinePower Bench PSU AMTECH NC-559-ASM Flux Kester 951 Flux pen Hanstar 861DW Rework Station Pro'sKit SS-331 Desoldering Station SEQURE HT140 Desoldering Tweezers Multicore 60/40. 0.38mm solder AOYUE int883 PCB Preheater RIGOL DHO800 70MHz four-channel digital Oscilloscope Tektronix 2246A 100 MHz four-channel analog Oscilloscope FNIRSI DPOX180H 180MHz Handheld Oscilloscope UNI-T UT61E Auto Ranging Multimeter UNI-T UT890D Manual Ranging Multimeter FNIRSI LC1020E LCR/ESR meter TL866 II Plus Programmer InfiRay P2 Pro Thermal Camera TOMLOV TM4K-AF Flex Microscope Dremel 3000 with flexible shaft MaAnt Mini"Dremel" DeoxIT D5 Contact Cleaner PCBs from PCBWay.com - Support me on patreon.com/Epictronics Buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/epictronics
