I'm learning about electronics bit by bit, making projects and tearing things apart

Welcome to Inside Gadgets!
In this blog I’ll show you tear downs of various gadgets (e.g. routers, TV tuners, etc) that I can grab my hands on; most if not all will be old gadgets. The tear downs will show various pictures and (try to) identify the main components.
I have a basic understanding of electronics so don’t expect the tear downs to be too much in depth 
It’s always good to show the inside workings of electronic devices
