Fun breakdown! Thank you for sharing, out of curiosity though, what model/make was the example? Was it just a quick Ebay buy?

Thanks!

Have you done a tear down of the PS4 controller? I know there is an ongoing discussion on modifying a PS4 controller over in the Global Arcade area since one of the guys wants to modify two joysticks to act as a controller to help people with issues handling the standard controller.

Luis Perez Sobrevela was the one asking for assistance, he may be interested in the teardown of one if you have one.

If you’ve ever wondered what’s inside a hoverboard, today’s your lucky day. Aside from simply satisfying our curiosity, taking a look inside a hoverboard (a Swagway brand hoverboard in this case — a company that was sued when their product allegedly burned a house down) can be informative. If you want to see what kind of battery is inside, this video is for you.

Electric scooter and hoverboards are different device. But have similarity.
