😂 me too 🤧

Definitely not 😂

I get out of bed all the time hahah 😂 I’m not the only one ! I have to show this to my wife hahah 😂

Another one join the group 😂

English is one dyslectic language, i know, but it's "who" (who cares maybe, pun intended).

Yes, he first shows 2.65 A on his power supply (big red screen on top), not on multimeter ( smaller b/w screen below), this is the current consumed. It is being supplied by the two multimeter-like probes. Sorin frequently mistakes them for the pair that is connected to his multimeter. Also watch his ch341 programming video, where he does what you thought he did here: measures the supply current with a multimeter by connecting exactly like here.

@@suediem9315 Thank you so much for clearing that up, I had totally missed that. Makes perfect sense mow. Thank you.

I slept on a laptop once and it damaged the screen a little.

HI, I am not Sorin, and i dont really know what i am talking about, so take my comment with some salt. I think that if you are looking at laptop power schematic that Sorin draws (as unprofessional and shine less as it looks, to me, it become the best schematic i have ever seen on the topic), then you would agree that it shows 19v coming along the main power rail and entering the 3.3v always on power supply. This 3.3 AOPS then creates 3.3v average voltage by having its upper mosfet to connect 3.3 output rail to 19v rail roughly 20% of the time, and having its lower mosfet to connect that 3.3 rail to ground the rest of the time. This happens with high frequency and after averaging we get 20% of the incoming 19v passing to the output and that is roughly 3.3v. So, for the 19v to be on the start button instead of 3.3v, I think the 3.3 output rail needs to be connected to the 19v rail 100% of the time. Since the 19v part is controlled by the upper mosfet (this is why we call it 'upper', it is always above the lower mosfet on schematic, not IRL on PCB), i think it is this 'upper' mosfet in the 3.3vAOPS that is being always open in you laptop. Now this could be because it has failed short and forever connected its input and output. Sorin says this happens, but rarely. Usually it is the lower mosfet that fails short, and then we have 0v on the output power rail. Both mosfets are controlled by the controller chip, which is sending control signals to the gates of the mosfets, creating the 20%-80% timing. Maybe the controller chip is not operating because it failed, or because something else is preventing it from working. I hope you have watched one of the latest videos about testing mosfets and read the comments, because you will need that to test your upper mosfet in 3.3v AOPS.

@@suediem9315 Thank you very much for your answer! Much appreciated

probably true, manufacturers slavishly catering to users' perceived need for instant everything to the detriment of product life

@@daffyduk77 you meant to say that they are slavishly catering to their own pocket.Notice that the battery is made to not be disassembled. Manufacturer would claim safety, care, love and angels, but it is actually the cost and making sure Sorin does not replace the cells, but buys a new battery.

@@suediem9315 that's a given,underpinning how they're pandering to a view of customer gratification based on "works until the warranty ends and no more"

no, he works at home for fun sometimes
