Hi all.
Unfortunately, due to space and financial limitations (and my "good" phone went Hindenburg on me) I need to sell these or swap for equivalent value parts such as piezo inverters.
Nokia N95, will take 8GB card. It works apart from the GPS, slight screen damage but is just cosmetic. Everything else works 100%, you might find its an easy fix. Its not locked, tried with CWGSY, Airtel and Wave, all work fine. I may have a spare battery somewhere, and 8GB C4 card. I was planning to do an antenna transplant but its not worth the hassle TBH, when an entire serial NMEA GPS unit is not much $ from Sparkfun.
Am asking £80 ono or equivalent (koff IGBT bricks /koff)
2* Imate Jasjars. One works apart from the wifi (could be me but is not quite right), the other has a torn off USB connector but still works. I paid over £300 for these. Asking £150 for the lot, including the manual and leads.
1* Asus graphics card, salvaged from old PC. I think it works, possibly useable with PCI Express interface. £5
Various phone cameras including Samsung E700, D900, etc. Asking £10 for the lot (will throw in a Sparkfun one)
Box of various (read- broken, missing parts or faulty) Samsung mobiles, including F400 and D900. They do mostly work. Asking £50 for the lot, Guaranteed 100% no cracked screens :)
1* bug zapper transformer. I believe it is around 8-10KV, and works. Haven't done much with it, the secondary leadout is messed up but the winding is OK. Just pay postage.
3* Sony Minidisk players. Will throw in some disks, these are faulty but could be repairable (never got around to it, too much work when an MP3 player will do the same). Make offer.
About 30 or so of those 9V PP3 lithiums. Some minor corrosion but otherwise around 70% capacity remaining, ideal for replacing batteries in meters etc. Use in smoke alarms if you dare (I did and so far no problems), asking £5 per 10
One very large, bulky box of used/etc laptop TFTs. Most of them do not work but the tubes are OK. If you want these, PM me with your location, and I will find out the postage.
Numerous MAC PCBs, including some laptop parts. PM me.
Some Nixies. I think these might be a bit gassy but should be recoverable. Also including three spiral CCFLs if you want them, asking £10 for the lot.
1* SBC675 mini computer. This has done the rounds and no-one has found a use yet. I did test it years ago, but found it to be too slow. Has serial, parallel and USB, should run 2K if you ask it nicely. £10 and I will see if I can include a nice heat pipe.
2* Ipod, no drives but believed working. Sadly I can't get these to work with CF but one has had its screen back removed for a projection hack. Asking £20.
2* 1 Kilo bag of random components, have no idea what is in there but surely someone has a use. I might throw in some UV LEDs if you ask me nicely. £10 (but be aware the postage may be a bit high)
Peak Atlas CA PCB, still sorta works but due to water damage it drains the 12V battery in two days. £20 (cost £80 new)
(in case you wondered, I am going to buy a new set of three when the cashflow situation improves)
5* 1W 808nm laser diodes in the BFY51 sized case. Guess what- it doesen't *****y fit in my module :( :( PM me, you may need to sign a disclaimer for these..... £20 or £4 each.
Various metals, including bismuth, indium, tin, lead, etc. PM me on these and I will let you know how much is available.
Numerous sensors, etc including linear Hall effect 4 lead type. £5 for a bag o'bits.
1* PCB from a 1F audio capacitor. £5
Bag of batteryless MP3 players. £20 but for this you get a *lot* of parts. Will throw in a few bluetooth headsets.
1* bundle of fairly long TFT backlight tubes, from huge LCD TVs. Will send as many as I can in a large postal tube. £15
1* Sony headless 300MHz mini laptop, with 128MB RAM. Believed to work, needs CMOS battery and will throw in floppy drive and VGA/serial/etc adaptor. Make an offer.
About 100 4.3V BZY zeners. Make offer.
1* flat CRT, functional but the drive board went Tango Uniform Lima Oxtrot, with flames and sparks. To drive it you would need a small TV's mainboard (ideally B/W) and a PIC to generate the nonlinear offsets for pixel mapping on a curved screen. £10 (those are hard to find now)
I am happy to send any/all as a bundle but watch the postage as it goes up sharply at some weight if international.
