What do you guys think of these solder joints ?

Its looks to me like the steel was too cold, especially the ground (black).
Maybe the copper has contact, or maybe not?
 
Sometimes they're in section where you don't expect.
Tell me why the numerical listings in section 21 repeat themselves. :realcrazy:
I'm sure it made sense to someone. Now we need to find someone and make him 'splain it.


So what is it that you want to moniter ?

@Tooljunkie Did you see link I posted earlier?
Subscribed....
also Lazze is good too
And for machining mr pete 222
I youtube a lot...

Make sure to use enough flux... Then put the iron on the part and wire to heat it up until the flux boils, then touch the solder to the joint...

Maybe you need a flux capacitor to control the power to the iron.... One like Mike built...
 
Went to physio today. not the IT Band like we figured,nor is it arthritis. Just some damaged muscle tissue.
accupuncture next week..from the knee to the buttock...

I like to tin the metal part first..

Mike's flux capacitor....

The negative not bad. The positive not too good.
Look cold to me. And the plating would be an issue too.
That's the plug for the LM2 datalogger.
When I was testing, My other controller, an old LM1 works fine, but uses a different power cable. sometimes it would not complete warmup of the oxygen sensor. Innovate emailed back that its very sensitive to getting at least 12.5 Volts. So I was hunting for poor connections. That's all I could find that seemed to be a candidate.
 
I brought it back to the house for soldering. Ironicly, I had brought the smaller soldering irons, and electronics solder back to the house last week. I did have this down at the garage...

Need to make a copy and leave it with the soldering supplies I really use.

The parts are probably spring steel. They would never spring for berylium copper or something like that.
Not sure what the bright plating is. Not straight tin, that's fer sure.
