content: Wanted, a motherboard for a Texas Ti-92 calculator, I have one which has suffered at some time in its life from battery leakage all over it. All the traces on the surface I have traced out and repaired without success. I can see signs of traces beneath the surface in places, so it clearly has more than 2 layers and some of the internal layers appear to have suffered. This is a very old model and has been superseded many times now, but I'm trying to get a small collection of some of the iconic calculators together, as a working collection before they all end up as landfill or E-waste. Can anyone help?

I can't guarantee that the batteries will hold much charge anymore.I'm honestly not sure about the price. I'm not very familiar with vintage calculators, I just know that there's a market for these.I'm thinking €150 each for the HP 67 with its case, or €300 for everything (+ €30 shipping).

author: WattsThat
author_rank: Frequent Contributor
timestamp: February 12, 2023, 05:32:19 pm
content: The 21 is in all likelihood beyond hope of working, it’s a parts machine. The problem is a notoriously bad designed battery charger circuit that fries the electronics from excessive charger voltage when the batteries begin to fail and go high impedance. The same thing happens should the batteries ever make bad contact, corrode or if powered with the charger with no batteries present. All roads lead to a fried ACT chip, the main component of a 21 calculator and they long ago became Unobtainium.The 67 does not suffer the same fate, the clue is in the number of pins on the battery charger plugs.Physically, they’re both nice specimens, IMO.

author: Haenk

timestamp: February 14, 2023, 05:54:15 am
content: Yes, but it is hardly original. It’s a PIC running emulation. It does work but does not address the original design issue that causes the chip failures. The easy fix is to never attach the battery charger to the unit, always charge the batteries outside the calculator.The PIC code is available because it started life GPL’ed as Eric Smith’s HP calculator ACT reverse engineering project.http://www.panamatik.de/html/hp_calculator_repair_kit.html

I'm thinking £100 each, or perhaps £250 for all three? (plus shipping). PM if interested.Lee.

content: If anyone UK based is interested in this then I've got some new tips for one of these but no iron, so would be happy to part with them for a good price to help the OP shift this iron (assuming nikifena doesn't have any to sell, this isn't my thread after all!) - I have 1 each of types 5600-003, 007, 005 and 013.Looks like the older 5600 tips (what I have, and what was original with this iron) and newer C560 tips (what the OP has) both work in this iron which is great news - not all older JBC stuff is compatible with the current models. I'm assuming that the three digits at the end are the same between the 5600 and C560 series (they certainly look like they match).nikifena - if you have tips to sell too then I retract my offer, I'm only mentioning it as it may increase interest from UK based members.Edit: found another tip, updated the list of what I have

content: Look for the Marconi the HP & Fluke you mentioned don’t even compare in my opinion. I’ve owed the HP 8657A and it was ok but once the Attenuator goes and it will you have a big boat anchor.The Marconi sometimes has button push issues but can easily be cleaned. The other issue with Marconi is the screen going bad so look for one with a nice bright screen with no lines in it. There is a replacement screen you can put in but it’s a bit of work as it’s not a direct replacement.The Fluke I’m not familiar with so I can’t comment.

content: This thing has been claimed.=====================================I have a Tekpower TP3005E switching power supply that has some problems. Will send it to anyone in the USA for the cost of shipping it. It looks like I should be able to ship it anywhere in the contiguous 48 for at most $15 if UPS ground is used (I think).The problem is that the readings on the LCD are off. Also it won't go higher than 25V (it's supposed to be a 30V 5 Amp supply). It used to be that only the Amp reading was off by about 0.25 A, and I could live with that. But sometime after a move a while back (possibly because of the move?), both V and A are out of wack. Not by a ton, but enough to make it annoying enough to me that I want to get it out of my garage.No power or other cables included.Maybe someone out there know how to tweak this thing? Or you just want to set it for one specific thing, so what the LCD says doesn't matter much once it's set up correctly. Or you just don't get annoyed by things like this.A photo showing the unit and how when nothing is connected and all the knobs are full counter-clockwise it reads 0V 0.76A:

Terminal screw hole has been filledwith solder. 200$ firm. ITAR item, so US sales only.Great beginners or astronomy tube.

Has reduced gain at 5 per data sheet.Gain can be as much as 100,000.This one was British M.O.D surplus from a tank periscope and has been in storage for years. M.O.D kept them as sparesIn case a war broke out, after upgrades.Data sheet for 8079HP attached.Lens included has some pincushion distortion near the edges, due to lack of field flatness, its a photo film lens.Steve

content: I've been spoiled with the Weller WX2021N at work and want to get something decent for home use. Must have the heating element inside the tips (not sure what the terminology is) and I am also looking for a set of soldering tweezers. Seems like very few postings for soldering equipment show up here, so I'm open to suggestions for good irons I can check out. Preferably a full setup for the $500 range rather than the $1500 range. Looks like I can piece something together from Hakko for around $1000. But the bottom line is I'm not opposed to checking out lesser known brands as long as the tips are high quality. Which when I was visiting the topic about 5 years ago, the consensus pretty much was you can skimp on the power supply and hand pieces as long as the tips and heating elements were good. Everything else is just a matter of safety, power, and ergonomics, but they're not gonna affect your joint quality too much unless something blows up.
