Most cringe worthy DIY repair project I've ever done!
4,855In this episode of #JerryRigged I show you all the wrong ways to fix a broken power button on Logitech Z-5500 THX Surround PC speaker receiver and due to a chain reaction of unfortunate bad decisions a 5 minute simple clever hack turns into a 30 minute documentary of fail ending in possible redemption.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
Q) Why didn't you just 3D print a new button
A) Come on, I wouldn't even get batteries down stairs for the remote, you think I was going to design and print a new button from scratch? (But maybe later)
Q) Why didn't you unplug it?
A) Truth is I didn't want to climb under the desk because my rib is still hurting like hell from being cracked. That being said it was stupid even though it made the video somewhat more entertaining from a cringe-worthy standpoint.
Q) Why are you so fat?
A) Lots of access to food!
Q) Can you still buy those speakers?
A) Yes, I linked them above however they are like $1500 because they are NOS now because they don't make them anymore. Just get the Logitech G906's which aren't quite as good but the best thing they make now or just get yourself a good stereo receiver and book shelf speakers or studio monitors if you have the space!
Q) Why is this video 30 minutes long?
A) I know YouTube wants 10 minute videos and this will hurt the viewership but I don't care, it was fun to make this video and I like making fun videos
I hope you enjoy the #DIYGasm #HowTo videos on my channel including #Tutorial of 3D printing, programming, technology, VR and so much more.
UPDATE: It broke after 3 days. I opened it up and used hot glue like I wanted to do the first time and it works like brand new and took 5 minutes total 😉 still hope you enjoyed the video 😎
