Dave Poo 2 | Removing Surface Mount Caps Without Damage (Amiga 600) @DavePoo2 | Uploaded November 2020 | Updated October 2024, 3 minutes ago.
In this video i remove and replace just 3 surface mount caps from a Commodore Amiga 600 motherboard. I'm going to use hot air to remove the caps, and i discuss other methods for removing surface mount caps that i have seen other people use on YouTube.
I do also clean up the board and replace the caps as well, but the big discussion in this video is what is the safest way to remove surface mount caps without doing any damage to the board or other components?
