Fixed a couple of lawn sprinklers, one was actually "Made in the USA" and had an insect next in it. PB Blaster is wonderful stuff.
It's that time of year to be mindful of replacement aluminum female hose fittings onto brass out faucet spigots. You'll get a galvanic reaction within a few weeks.

Old cast iron crawling lawn sprinklers are really cool. It could be a hobby all in of itself.
My washer was from 2012, so hopefully GE got their act together since then.
And yes, pet hair can be tough to deal with. Fixed a couple PCs that were totally clogged and overheating before the boot was even done.
I got one of those….. impossible to remove. Sad part is the aluminum was colored to look like brass, so I’m sure lots of people are having this problem.
Brand new hoses come with that $#1+. Fashioned to look extremely heavy duty, and called “contractor grade”. Might as well buy a pair of brass fittings and two pinch clamps along with it.
I brought the issue to the attention of both Home Depot and Ace Hardware. Both yawned. I've switched to the plastic versions.
Most of the day and two trips to the store later and these (well, not these) outlets have a dedicated line and are now the outlets for my 2 channel system.
I can probably no longer dim the lights in this room when the bass really hits but I'll try it out later to be sure
Musical Fidelity MA50 … tried quick and easy but now have to bite the bullit and take it fully apart and repair the charred and burnt pcb. I’ve got three of them, at least one still works 😀
I guess that leaves you with a reference. I like a lot of MF components, and most of them have served me well in the past.
I last repaired the Bosch Motronic E.C.U. of my Porsche 968 oldtimer.
I was stranded on the highway, the ignition coil driver power transistor was toasted.

My ESP TDA7293 module in my active speakers. It stated to buzz and there was a lot more noise than usual. (They are pretty quiet, but not quite silent at zero volume). I suspect it had started to oscillate, I just built a new one and installed that - success!
I have the old one on the bench, so I need to attach a heatsink and see if I can find what is wrong. May be a dried out cap as they have been in use for a while and get very hot from time to time.

Now see, that's how it should be. Maybe amp in a drawer on the back of the speaker. When I was kid, Quasar had just that concept with TV sets. '(the) Works in a drawer'. Yah, different time and space.
