What cheap Chinese tech have you bought, and would you recommend it?
Yes, we know everything is already from China but in here we discuss the no/low-name cheap shit you see on eBay, AliExpress and similar sites.

Update on the DIY pre-amp.
It sounds like shit, but I also dont have the proper power supply for it, so I'll let you know when one comes in and I can give it a listen.
Did we decide to forego any title, besides /csg/? Because I'm OK without it.
>>53838712
You won't find one that you can legally import that can do that through glass.
>>53838818
get some quality caps and resistors while you're at it
>>53838838
Dude, no joke, this thing sounds like dogshit. It clips so bad for some reason, but I'm not far enough into ECE to diagnose why.
I'll consider getting some better caps, but shouldnt I start with better Tubes?
>>53838821
Yep.
Thread wars were getting out of hand.
Also why i started a few posts early, my apologies.
While I'm at it, if you're still here, thanks anon for the op image!

What does /csg/ stand for?
>>53838821
the edgy faggots should just stick to their own containment thread like yesterday. it literally lasted for 3 days because it was so dead with everyone posting in chinese shit general.
>>53838860
Maybe, but quality caps are cheap and the more you have, the bigger effect is has.
Nichicon/nippon chemicon for caps, Vishay for resistors. Get <=20% tolerance caps and <=5% resistors.
>>53838878
cuck some guy
>>53838878
Chlamydia Syphilis Gonohrrea.
>>53838878
>>53838886
These resistors are rated <=1% if this they're to be believed.
Tested them with the meter and they seem to be in spec, but my meter is kinda shit so I'm not sure.
I'll check for the caps, any suggestion for where to buy them? I doubt Ali would have good stuff, seeing as the other electronic stuff they sell is fucking trash.
>>53838879
This.
I'm going to laugh so hard if I see a chink thread.
/csg/ is the best because it works both ways. Forcing chink into the title is just cringeworthy.

>>53839254
Because it's advertised and shilled as having good battery life but only manages 7 hours SoT because they only focused on a big battery and cheaped out on everything else.
The oukitel k10000 manages more than a full day SoT even though the ulefone has a battery 60% as large.
60% the battery size, 25% the battery life.
You buy the ulefone power for the battery, otherwise cheaper phones like the redmi note 2 or k3 note destroy it in performance/price.
Which one lads
>>53839250
You might be better off using a USB hub for that.
The whole point of power banks is to be portable.
>>53839324
i have one that looks like the identification card of misato.
looks nice.
>>53839333
They're not power banks, they're ac chargers.
>>53839324
what's it for
>>53839307
Man, I don't even want to compromise on performance any more.
My moto /g/ has similar specs that a lot of these xboxhueg-battery phones have, but I wouldn't waste money on anything with such horrible specs in 2016.
Can't they make a big battery phone that has actually good specs? Otherwise I'm just gonna get a flagship phone with a power case.
>>53839324
What the fuck are those, anon
>>53839333
Doesn't USB hubs(at least cheap Chinese ones) have paltry amounts of power to them so charging it will take hours and hours?
>>53839333
but im not asking for a power bank
but yes, i meant a usb hub/charger :)
I have a 'powered' 7 port usb hub with a diy powering cable (USB <> barrel plug). What kind of power supply can I get for it ?
>>53839353
misato, like the city in saitama misato?
>>53839250
I'd buy something with a nice form factor like

Just make a 1:1 hole in the table and pop this thing in
>>53839361
If performance is an issue you could always just grab the ulefone power.
7 hours SoT is still pretty decent, but it shouldn't be shilled as having killer battery life when they oukitel k10000 manages to completely annihilate it?
>>53839382
Why not one of those 5 port 8a ones like the first one listed? It's the cheapest too and rectangular so easy to cut a hole for?

>>53839397
thanks, but i remembered one usb hub that i have had laying around since forever. Could I power it somehow through the usb connector, or I'd have to use the barrel connector ?
If I use the usb It would be pretty discrete.
sorry for the off topic
>>53839368
>>53839433
usb drives shaped like credi cards.
>>53839448
That's fine.
Have you thought of sticking it on top of your pc and connecting to your psu molex. Should give plenty of power, but only be limited to use when your pc is on unfortunately.
>>53839466
why?
>>53839472
Good idea!
I'm with a thinpkad + docking station.
I am thinking of just drilling a hole under and routing the cable through it. It would be pretty discrete.
The problem is the power supply... Now it's stuck to the one from my note 3 pro... supposedly 0,35A.
Does anyone know how these wireless charging receivers work?
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Universal-Qi-Wireless-Charger-Receiver-Charging-Adapter-Receptor-Receiver-Pad-Coil-For-Xiaomi-THL-OnePlus-Honor/32334054624.html
Do they effectively make any phone capable of being charged on one of those charging pads?
Has anyone tries applying this thing?
>>53839504
If you want to charge your phone from it though, you'll either have to use a custom usb cable, modify it, or limit yourself to a 500mA charge limit.
>>53839043
>>53838992
HE'S BACK!
>>53839536

It's a meme technology really. Charging isn't as fast. Hot swappable battery is more practical.

Actually I think it's really nice to have.
For example if my micro USB port dies I can still use my Nexus 5 with a qi charger.
That's why I have 2 and use pic related pretty regularly since my micro usb port has started fitting cables not as tight/snug as before.

You could do it to the usb hub and just use normal cables.
>>53839683
Problem?
>>53839678
can you get rid of MIUI though? I thought custom ROMs (to get a Nexus/Stock feel) were rare with Xiaomi shit?
>>53839646
Swappable battery would fix these issues as well and give you more flexibility. Wireless charging is great if you could use it with a hotswappable battery.
>>53839697
>You could do it to the usb hub and just use normal cables.

I'm hyped AF. Did you ask them to leave factory ROM, or did they install their bloatware?
>>53839700
I've been using MIUI, so far I think I might change the launcher to nova prime soon but the rest of the UI is much prettier than stock google and functions pretty much the same.
There's already an AOSP qualcomm made ROM for the phone, I haven't tried it or even rooted my phone yet but that would eliminate the problem.
>>53839721
dude weed lmao
*week
>>53839721
I didn't ask for anything, it's the factory ROM. There was like 2 bloatware apps (go keyboard, some downloader app), everything else is xiaomi bloat that's well integrated and out of the way, which is why I haven't even bothered rooting yet.
>>53839746
which version ? mine came with some non existend shit like 7.1.99.99 and i flashed 7.1.8.0
>>53839719
Nah it's fine, I do this shit a lot for my phone since cheap cables just don't cut it for me
Just short out every female usb connector and your phone will recognize it as a wall wart instead of a computer.

Yo that's a real bad idea, for two reasons:

2) if, for some reason that does not happen, you risk burning out the USB port

I'm a little disappointed with the build quality, I was hoping a $60 keyboard wouldn't feel like a $10 one. It's not bad, just not quite what I expected. The HP stylus fits nicely. I left the tether since that pic is from a test fit and if it got stuck I wanted to be able to remove it without damage.

Plus the z3c gets pretty close to the ulefone power in SoT so I'm really not seeing the appeal.
>>53840275
Should work fine then. Plug it into your phone and see if it says ac or usb in battery stats.
Also keep your voltmeter attached to measure voltage sag. 4.5 seems a little low.

It's an online store selling chink shit, where as aliexpress is like a wild west ebay because they let everyone open up shop and ali ALWAYS sides with the seller.

I hope the cpu performance while be enough though.
>>53840686
For gauging the current draw of an object?
>>53840747
For regular shit it's fine, one advantage of the 720p screen is better performance overall.
Just don't expect 60fps for intense games.
>>53838668
What is the best 500GB external hard drive you can get on any chink site?
>>53840758
I never play games on smartphones but smooth web browsing and a fast UI would be nice.
>>53840790
Should be fine. I've seen reviews on the k10000 which has a weaker cpu and it's got a smooth consistent ui.
I'm thinking of getting the k10000 but the cpu is holding me back. Ui is smooth in the videos I've seen but I don't want it lagging on the second internet tab I open or facebook chat heads stuttering across the screen.
>>53840697
This is normal for a lot of chink sites, if something's not in stock they'll sell it anyway and wait on the supplier without really telling you unless asked.
>>53840813
It seems nice but yeah, I think there are more chingchong phones around with huge batteries.
>>53840829

How is it when in potrait mode? Is it to thin? The only thing that hessistate me from buying this is the 16:9 aspect ratio.

I google a lot but there is a lot of conflicting information regarding the FOV. I already own the Google Cardboard and I want to move up to a proper plastic headset with straps and all but the choices to go with is way too saturated with limited information about the actual headset specs.

Alright for those of you awake at real nigga hours, is there a straight-forward way of switching the back/menu buttons on MIUI Xiaomi phones. Or is it down to rooting and editing the keylayout file?
I see the Mi 5 has dots for buttons and with the in-depth options MIUI offers for long presses, I can't believe you're not allowed to switch them. I'm not left handed but i hold my phone with right and scroll/touch woth left.

I bought this cheap chinese SATA > USB cable, and I tried plugging in a HDD to my PC. There are two LEDs on it, one for Power and one for Access, the power one went blue while the access one went red. Do I need some kind of driver for these or don't they work with standard HDDs?

Forgot pic, this is the connector.
>>53842667
If it's only powered by USB it'll only work with 2.5" or smaller laptop drives.
3.5"s either need extra power, or just power them separately and use a sata extension cord to your adaptor.
I've just wired a custom sata power cable, bought a bunch of usb-sata adaptors and connected them all up to a USB hub.
>>53842776
I'm doing it now.
GDP's made stuff before, so I think it'll be okay.

Yeah, that alone will only handle a 2.5"

No. It's not meant to be used as a Go Pro. The video and sound quality isn't there if you seen youtube review vids.
It's meant to be used as a spy cam for personal conversations involving money or etc or maybe spy cam'ing your sister.
Only problem with it is (maybe) overheating issues like what youtube reviews say or it was dead on arrival. I ordered one knowing it has low performance but it'll be used for its intended purpose just like in that Zootopia movie where "it's my video against your word".
