There is no way a cap in a consumer device will hold 400V. Where should they get a 400V supply from? Probably rated for 400V but actually charged at 120V seems more realistic. Anyways, the Voltage a cap is charged at isn't the dangerous part

I've been shocked by an original Xbox power supply. It hurts quite a bit.

@@Monsuco It does hurt but it's far away from dangerous. Actually when you plan on recapping the device you can just put a screwdriver with a insulated handle between the contacts of the bigger caps and discharge them this way before working on it ;)

@@best591 I tend to use incandescent light bulb to discharge caps

@@best591 240VAC rectified is 340VDC. Not as high as 400V but it will definitely hurt a lot. So If you're in a 240V country, be careful around power supplies

careful with those PSU caps though, if you're gonna replace them, know how to handle them safely (bleed resistors, store them shorted, etc), and make sure your voltage rating is at least as high as the originals, and the ESR (equivalent series resistance) is as low as you can find. you don't want those things blowing up

@@spambot7110 Good tips for electrolytic capacitors, or even just really big ones.

​​​@@spambot7110naaah just take a screwdriver and short the poles of the electrolytes. I mean, of course the proper way is to discharge them with a resistor, but it's more fun with the sparks and all. As for voltage, you're absolutely right, for example put a 16V cap instead of 25V and after a few minutes you'll have your very own magic smoke generator.

@@masterkamen371 maybe, depending on the size of the cap, and how well you trust your gut on "how much energy can i dissipate in a split second before it becomes a problem for me". And hopefully the screwdriver is sufficiently insulated, and preferably the device ground is floating WRT both ground and your body... i'm making that sound a lot more restrictive than it really is, but you get the point, it's not just a universally ok thing. also this is only the safety aspect. if you care about the lifespan of the capacitor (or the rest of the device), it's probably not a good idea to subject them to very high currents outside of what they're rated for; in addition to that being a lot of pulsed power to dissipate, it's got a pretty fast rise and fall time, so depending on the ESL of the capacitor (plus the inductance of the screwdriver), you're potentially overshooting past 0V and subjecting the device to a negative voltage transient. plus the fact that you're not a low-bounce high-current switch, but a human with a screwdriver, so it's probably not a single current pulse but several random ones, adding a bunch of random frequency content into the mix to interact with the rest of the circuit in unpredictable ways.

That makes sense about the AC plugs. I didn't comment on it during the video but I noticed there were mounting holes on each side of the plug, but they just didn't mount to anything. It's just staying in place by the solder joints, which is incredibly dumb lol

@@BringusStudios Yeah not sure what that's about. Seems like a bit of an oversight on their part or something. Some people put a bit of glue around the port to keep it from moving too which is a good idea. Great video btw, enjoyed watching it

just fix your problems with a gentle application of alcohol🤣

Real

kaboom

Yes please

The PS2 slim has an external PSU, so... nope.

​@@damustermann Damn dude you sure got me, Except the 90000 PS2 Slim series have internal PSUs, Damn though, You sure gave me a sick burn.

I think there are 256 mb upgrades now?

@@PowerPuffBoysZ Yup, 256mb through Project Stellar (though it's not functional yet, waiting on the next firmware update where it should be fixed). And I believe XBMC was updated to allow 512mb, but it was unofficial, so ymmv

​@@xxjayymonroe96xx86so bassicallly the ram of xbox 360 and ps3, even tho I don't own a original xbox, I own a ps2, and it amazes me how much yall modding community came to even upgrade ram to next gen

@@Secrethiden Yeah, it's absolutely wild lol

@@xxjayymonroe96xx86 At that point, why not a CPU and GPU upgrade?

I have found the adapter doesn’t work in certain homebrew applications without being power cycled first. Project Stellar has an adverse reaction that not even Cerbios has where after the boot animation the adapter won’t work without a power cycle so using IGR requires cycling the adapter which is pointless.

I've been using the v1 of Wingman XB on both OG and 360 with various PS4-compatible controllers (DS4, a Chinese clone, Raiju Ultimate) over Bluetooth and it works flawlessly without disconnecting. I wonder if it's the dongle itself or the differences in hardware (v1.4 with Aladdin XT) or software (XBMC4Xbox with no IGR, possibly a different version of EvoX M8 with different settings).

@@tgirltouhou why I can see this comment (the one were you respond that you are not a bot) from your account but from the KZfaq comment section it's like it doesn't exist?

@@valecasini I imagine they got auto-filtered for, ironically, sounding too much like a bot while explaining that they weren't a bot.

I second this, the kit lens holds the camera back and there are some great affordable options out there that'll get much better results. I've been using my ZV-E10 on a filmmaking course and the biggest issues have been the micro-HDMI and the rolling shutter performance, that's all.

ill keep this in mind because i just recently got that camera and low key was upset to hear this dudes overheated lol

Biggest mistake is that you are recording with camera, not with extrernal HDMI-screen. Amazing camera, but Sony is never made for recording video long times as it can put out really good clean signal to HDMI.

Really... Well I'm glad I TSOP'd it then in case the drive dies. Should make recovery easier

I imagine playing the xbox port of morrowind would be a pain then as the controller would dissconect during load screens

SMR mostly hurts when doing a ton of writes. A 2TB hard drive on an OG Xbox will probably only be written to once.

@@shanez1215 Ah, didn't know the writes were the only thing that suffers but tbh, if I have the choice, I'd always choose CMR unless SMR is SUBSTANTIALLY cheaper as I don't know of many use cases with not a lot of writes for a hard drive (other than this instance)

@@JordanPlayz158even if the Xbox did tons of writes, SMR write speeds would still be above the max speed the Xbox can utilize for writes and would have no difference over CMR drives. This is only true on the console however as SMR will be slower when hooked to a PC to install lots of games that way.

@@YTP2go I doubt it applies to all consoles, only older consoles like the Xbox and I did acknowledge it likely wouldn't be an issue in this instance

Anything with an IDE bus is going to be speed limited to the point that even slow modern tech is enough to saturate the bus. Even Temu SSDs on an adapter. SMR drives are terrible, though

Glad you enjoyed!

Yep. This video really did remind me of DankPods (the desk thumbnail already had me there)

American Dankpods, YES This is my new favourite channel now.

i can see a collab in the multiverse

Ahhh good to know, I wasn't sure how best to choose the BIOS. Might go back and reflash then

For what it's worth, patches for EvoX M8+ do exist that allow hard drives larger than 2TB to be used. But Cerbios is still great and it's got more features.

It was more likely because he didn’t name the bios he wanted to use as bios.bin. He did everything except for that. Net flash has also been reliable for me and is required for anyone like me who expanded their C partition in FatXplorer as Xblast won’t read a C drive that is not the stock ~500MB size.

That's usually fine, but there's a non-zero chance that makes the capacitor just fucking explode, and that's not very fun either.

@@zombie_pigdragon your non zero chance is a failed cap or one way too damn big, but in typical consumer devices this is de wei

It's a ticking time bomb. The last 3 xbox's I have taken apart the clock capacitors were leaking. One of them had already destroyed the traces to the power button. I had to run new wires for them. Better to do it sooner then later.

uh oh

Yes

This is terrible idea

This is good idea

This is a great idea

I'm switching teams. This is a BAD idea

@@_moonlumen R.I.P

Just remove the clock cap you don’t need it anymore. Only on 1.6 you have to replace it, I believe you can bypass the clock setup with custom dashboards

Clock cap is literally useless on 1.0-1.4 and no longer an annoyance after modded. Clock caps also have the 2nd worst lifetime of all capacitors.

Yeah a bit lame. It just caught me off guard because I assumed that all of the processing for the wireless stuff would just be done on the Brook adapter's end, and then the Xbox would just see it as any old controller and it wouldn't ever make the Xbox aware that the controller was disconnected. Maybe the Brook adapter briefly loses power during an xbe launch and it screws up the connection

It's on the agenda!

@@BringusStudios Nice!

​@@BringusStudiosif you do highlight the amazing ports like xash3d and re3/revc/gta san andreas.

That's my best guess

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

ssd doesn't last longer then a hdd

@@thehammerthatdestorysthings they absolutely do. If nand flash fails, the data still persists, you just can't write to it anymore, and I have SSDs in devices that are over 10 years old that are still going strong while the HDDs that I have of the same age are full of metal shards and are completely unusable. And before you go comparing archive drives to consumer SSDs, there are archival SSDs that are meant to be some of the most persistent data possible currently

And that they bought an SMR HDD

Mostly just because I had this drive lying around. I've also heard that SSDs have some kind of issue with the Xbox that causes them to die faster. Something about the Xbox not supporting TRIM or something, I don't remember

@@BringusStudios I mean, macho nacho made a video upgrading his OG Xbox with an SSD, so maybe check it out if you want a bit of a sanity check.

​@@dhoome1234ifytbf I doubt an OG Xbox can even take advantage of such speed of an SSD vs a CMR HDD (but they did use an SMR HDD which performs worse than CMR so there could actually be the limiting factor of the HDD)
