I'm a fairly ignorant Noob and enjoy watching his stuff. I've definitely learned from him.
I sort of understand his view ito time and price point, but man, as a paying customer, some of those repair solutions would leave me upset.
I'm sure it is not a new concept, but I saw for the first time that power was introduced to check for shorts. Previously I would thought that if I suspected a short, I would not bring power close to a board, till I somehow could find the culprit.
Now I wish I have one of those power supplies where you can limit current or where the current draw on a circuit is shown when power is introduced.
I assume you can still check the current draw using other methods, although I haven't figured out how.
The point is, his method of working and thinking has opened up my mind and that everything doesn't necessarily have to be 100% to test a circuit. It is okay to remove a capacitor or resistor or even mosfets or short something in certain circumstances.
The trick is probably to know when you can take those chances.
