In this video, I unbox a fresh haul of tools and materials from AliExpress, ranging from Amao M50 and Mechanic UV flux to a handy DC power meter with a barrel jack kit. I also look at some conductive copper tape, T12 soldering tips, and a new isopropyl alcohol dispenser to see which items are workshop essentials and which were ordered in error.
