Another sack of technical tat from AliExpress. These videos are at least as popular as the full-on reverse engineering videos, but catch my genuine joy of decanting a big bag of "stuff" onto my bench.

I did enable the affiliate link feature on AliExpress. It doesn't increase the cost of the item, but does give me a few cents per item towards more gadgets.

So far in the first week it has earned over 200 dollars in credit!!!! That will justify buying more fancy things. Looking at their analytics suggests that lots of people are buying small bags of glorious low cost technical stuff, with an average of about $5 per order.

Oops - forgot the direct link... Here it is:-

AliExpress unbagging joy - hats, atomisers and router resetters

Another batch of electronic stuff I bought from AliExpress. As requested, I'll itemise the items with links below. Note that these links may already be sold out or not work in some countries. But they may be a good starting point. They are affiliate links, but that will not affect the normal price. If you buy something I get a few cents towards buying more gadgets for us to explore. Beanie/baseball hybrid Brooklyn cap:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c421HJRd Camouflage tie tape bandana:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4aQ27hh Silicone/caulk saver set:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c45ExRej Yellow LED flame effect module:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4qYVoqP LED filaments:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4LwJTbz Blue LED flame effect module:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c3is1lQx Round inline router rebooter:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c402UXWL First USB ultrasonic humidifier module:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c2zJrRgr Second USB ultrasonic humidifier module with yellow inductor:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c2IjbkkL Third USB ultrasonic humidifier module with what I thought might be a flyback diode (which doesn't make sense in the application). It's not - it's part of the supply decoupling and this unit has a flaw in that it does not have a capacitor between the microcontroller and MOSFET gate, which means it can self destruct if the processor crashes. https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4DBmrPl Mini lock-pick set:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4C5s203 Aroma oil atomiser (oil bottle needed, and bought separately):- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c3DMTO6R Fourth USB ultrasonic humidifier module with water level sensing wire:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4kHfucx Foam draught sealing strip with other uses:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c42NJRNh Door edge brush strip. This is so squished in postage that it might be difficult to apply to a door properly. I think locally bought rigid brush strips would be better:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4r8RB4f Silicone self-fusing repair tape:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c3LYw1ZZ Rectangular in-line timed router reset module:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4M23TE7 Mite eliminator - I've subsequently tested this and it is bizarrely fake. The microcontroller was not running the ultrasonic circuitry. https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c3mDQ2aX Solar deck and handrail edge lights:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c2ytzNa3 Neon flicker flame lamp. Will work on 120V but with less neon flicker:- https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c43ZJsAf If you enjoy my videos and would like to buy me coffee and cookies, you can do so by supporting me on Patreon.

The caulk gun cleaner needs an EMT guy/ Badge502 to react to it as a short.

Interesting unbagging. Thanks Big Clive. I'm jealous of your hat size. I think I wear an 8 3/4 so nothing for normal people will ever fit. I think the router resetter is kind of cool. I might get one.
