Shopify removed my listings, claiming I was selling trademarked products. They were mail-in services for refurbishing/upgrading customer consoles. Listings clearly say that. No one checked or reached out first. Filed an appeal. Sometimes this space is a real PITA 🫠

Whoops good catch. I meant 100F so around 38C. I noticed discoloring start to happen at higher temps and have been using 100F for a few years now with no issues.

Also did 2X Controller Full Servicing with 8BitDo's
Bluetooth mod kits. 👍
I do. Usually around 100C for 5-10 minutes with some Dawn dish soap in the tank. Once dried everything gets wiped down with disinfecting wipes and a bit of Goo-Gone to spot treat any trouble areas. The goo-gone helps bring back life to the shells as well. Finish with Aerospace U/V protectant.👍

Documenting consoles for my app is tedious, but the PS2 takes it to another level with no reference designators on the board! 😩 Thankfully, a few service manuals exist to help with identification, and those combined with my scans 😎

PSA:
It was brought to my attention that my #3DO service pages for the FZ-1, FZ-10, and Goldstar had no "No" option for the controller #FullService. That wasn’t intended, and it’s now fixed!
If you ever spot something off on the site, PLEASE let me know. Appreciate it! 👍

#SEGA #Dreamcast
Forgot these pics of the fully disassembled optical drive. There's a lot going on here and I've done my best to document it. 👍
I typically don’t provide kits for my installation services, but some add-on services like Full Service items (capacitors, thermal pads, etc.) I do provide. The website clearly states what I do and do not provide so take a look and LMK if you have questions.👍
