as is my tradition the openings begin with the beer today it is Baron Barrel Maple nut Brownell
from handsome wed brewing in Winnipeg there are absolutely no tasting notes on here other than
it identifies itself as a strong beer and that it is made with 100 real maple syrup
that is nice and it's not nearly as sweet as you would expect for something that proclaims
that it's made with maple syrup let us start with this one it calls itself toy accessories times two
a couple of tiny little modules with an eight pin chip and a couple of capacitors and resistors on
each one hmm there's what it says on the back which is almost not useful that is just a date
code I think in a version will 1.1 or version 11. what is that Dau 802c 8002 D I'll have to
find the listing and see what that really is but that does sound like a very familiar number hmm
three to five volt 3 watt 8002 mini mono Channel audio player power amplifier module class AB PCB
oh wait is that the same chip that was in that cheesy Bluetooth speaker that I uh took apart a
couple weeks ago I think it might be anyway I got two of these that cost me a buck 32 each with free
shipping or 99 American pennies unfortunately this particular seller doesn't have any left
right now so the link down below will be a link to this search which finds essentially the same
thing just in slightly different form factors from a bunch of different sellers that should
do the job for you if you're looking for little amplifiers that's off to a good start let's see
what the next thing in on the mail pile is this thing says heat break oh is that a 3D printer part
yeah so these are a part for an upgrade part I hope for the 3D printer the basically the heat
break is a piece that goes between the hot end the nozzle and the hot end part and where the
Bowden tube with the filament comes in and its job is to not let the filament melt prematurely
and to sort of hold the Bowden tube in there now these ones I am hoping are what's called
uh all middle hot end heat break um that basically holds the Bowden tube which is made at a PTFE the
Teflon holds it further back so it doesn't get degraded by the Heat that is my hope of what
these are EQ stainless extruder heat break throat for cr10 J head hot end 3D printer
um and if it's cr10 it probably fits most of the uh creality printers I got two of them
for seven dollars and 24 cents American or 966 Canadian with free shipping oh hey look
they're on discount right now nice so as I said I'm hoping that these are the ones that I want
um the ones that I want basically have a reduced diameter down in part way inside of them so that
the Bowden tube stops further back from the heat because this screw in here is right up tight to
the back of the nozzle and that that whole screw thread and the nozzle is the hottest part of the
hot end and then back here on this larger cylinder is a heat sink to cool it off so that you don't
get you know premature melting and jamming and blobbing and ugliness it occurs to me that that
may not have been a very good explanation so let me try again here is the spare hot end for
my 3D printer um in use the Bowden tube which is just a holy tube that the that the filament goes
through gets pushed through goes in there and gets locked in with this little fitting here
it goes down all the way to the back of the nozzle down here in the interior diameter of that nozzle
is a pretty close match for the interior diameter of that tube which is a pretty close match for the
outside diameter of the filament and the filament gets heated and squeezed down through that tiny
little nozzle at the front there so these parts here the heat breaks are this piece inside here
well I'm going to just whip this thing apart and show you closer and we'll see together if the ones
that I got are the correct one so there is the factory one and as you can see that goes right
through and he's in contact with both the back of the nozzle and also with the heat block this
part here has the heater cartridge in it and that heats up you know this area here so this tubing
um it resists heat pretty well until you start getting over about 250-ish range
I'm not sure the exact numbers somebody's going to correct me in the comments I'm sure
but anyway it's it degrades at higher temperatures so if you're printing more exotic materials then
it can get damaged over time so I'm hoping these ones have a little step in them about there
and they don't look like they narrow down no they don't
yeah these are not the ones that I wanted these are the Plain Jane ones that are stock they're
not the ones that I wanted oh well I have more Spears than I'll ever use I guess that's okay
for one so far let's see what the next one is it says lanyard okie dokie
oh looks like there's a bunch of them in there
it is three a little wrist lanyards with this kind of cord that comes with anything like
camera lanyards and stuff like that and the reason I ordered these is I've been watching
for whatever reason some uh tourist vloggers lately tourism vloggers travel vloggers I
guess you call them on YouTube quite a bit I guess I'm vacationing vicariously through them anyways
one of them was using his phone and taking a nice panoramic view on the end of a dock and the phone
slipped and dropped into the lake so that got me thinking um maybe if I'm going to be traveling
at some point maybe next summer who knows for vacation I ought to figure out a way to you know
not drop my camera my phone irretrievably because that would suck so I grabbed three of these cheap
guys and not just for my phone but also for my other cameras that I've got around here
it's always a good idea to prevent them from you know hitting the pavement or a bottomless pit
or a lake or something like that so I figured I'd grab some of these three-piece hand wrist
strap lanyard Holder phone strap key ring Supply adjustable top Supply okay I got the three of them
for 2.96 Canadian free shipping yo and they are also available in an array of different colors
not much to say about them we got colors they're made out of abs and polyester 19 centimeters long
suitable for mobile phones walkie-talkies handled devices game consoles small cups Keys
u-discs sure all of these things right next in we have mobile phone case clip
oh these go with that previous thing okay Universal wrist cell phone lanyard patch phone
strap tether tabs with metal ring now judging by the pictures in here I had assumed that it
was adhesive but apparently not regardless it only cost me a dollar 89 each and I ended up
buying three of them so there we go looks like there are some other variants on this that may
be more adhesive but they are also much more expensive so these aren't adhesive or anything
but how I think they work is you just tuck them into the back of your phone case and
then put the phone back on top of them with it sticking out through the charging hole
um is that charging hole still available just oh yep okay so that still works it doesn't really get
in the way and then the lanyard goes on there and yeah it doesn't go anywhere cool let's try
it with a different phone like my daughter's old S3 and a slightly different style of case
still latches up there it's a little thick for the bottom though
okay it doesn't yeah it doesn't really work super well with that kind of a case um let's try it with
this one then which is now I can't remember what kind of a phone that is but regardless
that seems to hold in there fairly well and at the bottom corner still grab around okay
I think those will be good that way I can use my phone when I go on vacation and not worry
as much about dropping it into an impossible location and the last and the biggest thing
let's see what we have here there's nothing on the outside of the box that indicates what it might be
came from a reshipping warehouse a drop ship or whatever you want to call it so no idea other
than it's a box in a box here we have a clue it says label printer E1000 Pro color orange
oh
power brick handled labor printer cutter holder and get this guy out of here there we go
well that is a knockoff of a brother P-Touch label printer machine
and this is the TZ style or uh label maker tape that works with those we use these things at work
all the time for labeling just about everything the label tape comes in a variety of widths
and if this one works well and I hope it does then it'll be a nice inexpensive way to label
stuff around here I got this guy from AliExpress E1000 Pro label maker printer compatible with heat
shrink tubes tz231 label maker qwerty keyboard symbols industrial printer wow this big range
of prices but I of course got the cheapest one which was 55.68 with free shipping and it included
a US plug that is not a US plug in the picture but the one on my desk is and one cartridge of
tape so the ones that we use at work are more the desktop ones because we got them connected to our
computers with USB so that we can type it up on the computer and format things all nice and tidy
but this one I think for what I'm doing around here will probably be a better choice just so
I can carry it around because it's portable Eno works with brother P-Touch TZ label tapes from
six millimeter up to 12 millimeter in width okay so it can't take the really big one but that's
all right I don't use those anyway so it's got a bunch of symbols and stuff in its menus as well
um one replaceable cutter yeah I saw that uses six Triple Eight six Triple
A's wow yeah this is what we use it for quite a bit at work for labeling cables
also just for labeling ports on equipment and equipment in general a very handy thing to have
so the tape cartridge just drops in the back there as you would expect
I'm not putting batteries in as I said because I don't have six Triple A's kicking around
and it identifies that it's got a 12 millimeter cartridge in there that's cool okay
and now I can just label all of the things cool I'm going to take a little bit of time
to figure out how to use this guy it's fairly straightforward menus and things
like that we can do barcode and just the cutting adjust the style bold italic different fonts
I'll just do normal for now what else we got in here with underlines frames label links margins
oh you can memorize things in the file system that's cool can just manually feed the tape mirror
printing alignments are just the label width and the language cool I think you've seen how I label
my parts drawers around here so I'm thinking that this is going to be an upgrade just for that even
if I'm not labeling cables and things but I'm sure I'm going to get around to that eventually
perfect yep I will be labeling all of the things
so that was another successful mostly successful mailbag Monday this is going to take some learning
it's got a fairly thick manual so I'm going to spend some time with that and uh figure out you
know the fonts and the fancy things and stuff like that these little amplifier modules are probably
going to come in handy next up tiny little ones um these two sets of things combined should hopefully
prevent me from making a really spectacularly stupid mistake at some point in the future I hope
but like I said I probably won't start using these until I go on vacation unless unless I'm you know
using my phone to take video close to someplace where there could be some Hazard or something
the only really disappointing thing this time is these two heat breaks which are not what I
thought I was ordering but that's probably on me because as usual I'm trying to order the cheapest
of whatever variety that I want I'll try again in the future and do a bit more research on them
um but I'll probably see more of those hopefully the right ones this time in the future
anyway thanks for watching I appreciate it as always thanks to my patreon supporters and my
YouTube channel members for helping me pay for all this silliness um keeping the mailbags full
and of course keeping the beer fridge full very important um everybody else again thanks
for watching comments and questions Down Below in the comments section I'll talk to you later
