Someone’s Junk Box - Anything Useful Internally?
Couldn’t help myself snagging this box of junk for $5 on FB marketplace. Taking it all apart with my 5 year old for fun :)
Bunch of old phones, remotes, robotic vacuums. Got two small gems- an old car phone and a powered 1/4” drive right-angle household power ratchet.
I’ll be saving the motors and sensors for the vacuums. Mics and speakers from the phones. Anything else of potential use in these old phones or remotes that I may be unaware of? I’m a hobby electronics guy and amateur PCB designer (Altium) for simple random shit, mechanical engineer by profession.. so if there’s any chance of use, gimme a heads up. Component level or otherwise.
Cheers!
