It's better to buy stovetop pressure cooker, maintenance is much easier, we been using Tefal for 10++ years now only had to replace the silicone gasket 2-3 years ago We bought it back in Europe though, dunno here got or not Ikea has a cheap and good one https://www.ikea.com/my/en/p/vaerdesaetta-p...steel-10286747/I would stay clear off no-names, high pressure = high risk any defect in manufacturing can cause boom-boom

QUOTE(hiyyl @ Jul 7 2020, 08:04 AM) I would like to avoid stovetop pressure cooker if possible. Reason, i can keep my stew n soup warm the whole day.  which Tefal model u buy? Easy to clean? That's a reasonable reason, but still, haven't seen an electric one last that long Especially with how electronics now are

QUOTE(hiyyl @ Jul 7 2020, 08:18 AM) The electronics should be ok. Problem is the materials used for the pressure cooker, either can withstand the pressure and heat or not. Especially the exterior part. Nahh man, sometimes they cut corners, using lead-free solder is one of it The constant cycle between heat and cooling added with the vibration during steam release sometimes play with the soldered joints. Easy repair for me, but to some, the garbage bin will be the final destination

QUOTE(Zot @ Jul 7 2020, 08:42 AM) Nowadays the requirement is lead free, else cannot sell into market, especially Europe. Lead free has higher melting point than the leaded solder. So, it is more robust. It is poor soldering that cause the failure you mentioned. However, I agree with you the normal stove top pressure cooker is less troublesome. You would not know if the electric one goes haywire and explode when you leave it at home on simmer. Heating food is easy with microwave nowadays  as someone that repair electronics in free time (all the time now), lead-free has been annoying to work with

QUOTE(Kyojin @ Jul 8 2020, 09:02 AM) oh, how much does a "good enough" power supply will cost to power this up? If you have an extra laptop charger, that would be good enough if not get a used one 19v 4.5a is the one I have, replace the jack with common barrel jack Just check back properly, the power depends on the power supply voltage used I think there an updated one using a usb c

QUOTE(Zot @ Jul 8 2020, 09:37 AM) As for the USB-C, the current is defined as 5A max at 5V. This means only 25W. I think this is not adequate. I don't use solder iron very often. Just to fix anything broken at home only. If nothing broken it will stay in storage for years Soldering capacitor or whatever can be tricky even if the component is small. If the PCB is paper base class like FR1 or FR2, the copper trace can easily be de-laminated. Too hot iron can damage it. Probably more common one is FR4 (Epoxy base). However, if the lead of component you are soldering goes to grounding on the PCB, the low wattage iron can't heat fast enough. Thus you tent to heat it longer. By doing so, even the FR4 PCB can be damaged (lifted pad). Furthermore, heating component lead too long (recommended like 3s) can damage the component especially the semi-conductor). Nahh mang, USB C got Power Delivery/PD can sustain 20v @5a
