Interesting to watch, though I still shocked to see so many scam products on aliexpress and they are fxxking expensive. There are tons of interesting, even diy products in China. Many are pretty usable and cheap, but it's hard for any non-chinese to find. But one thing is certain, China is the paradise for any DIY lover, you can get anything cheap and fast. Once you have an idea, you can make a functional prototype in one week, massive production next month. I also worked as an automobile electronic engineer, so anyone can ask me about any products on aliexpress if you can't read the chinese or just confuse about what they mean. I'd glad to help

Pumps often have a much smaller rating in sucting than they do in pressure. Try using a piece of threaded rod to elongate the shaft of the pump and dip it in your pond. You can than drive the pump with the drill though your rod which should provide enough pressure to pump water. Thats why water reservoirs have the pump at the bottom and it can still deliver up to 20 bar of pressure which means it can lift water up to (theoretically) 200m. No pump however can suck water from 10m as that would require absolute negative presure (-1bar) which also means perfect vacuum.

I have exactly the same jigsaw from AliExpress. The shipping was executed by their Spain warehouse and it came after one week to my address in Germany. It has been over 4 years since I bought it and it's just soo good. It even survived the time where I moved out from Germany to Spain and later on the travel from Spain to Poland
It's also a great thing that it comes with a universal saw mount since I can go to any hardware store and buy a new one (mostly the Bosch and Makita jigsaw saws are compatible with this thing)

Absolutely love this idea for videos, I frequently go to aliexpress and just go down the rabbit hole of different products and devices wondering what is good or bad! I would love to see more of these in the future! :) Shipping times can be awful, but some of the halfway decent looking things would make up for that time in my mind, I sort of use it to get things I want but don't need in any specific timeframe and when they show up its like a surprise from my past self, bahaha.

My biggest problem with aliexpress is that it somehow things I want completely unreadable auto translated German. Per Shopping trip I have to change the damn page to english like 5 times. Whats even worse is the translation of product names.
Yeah cheapest shipping from china takes 1-5 weeks. If you want it fast pay the express premium. So far that's reliable 2 days or so. Which is totally insane too me. Shipping over half of the world in just 2 days starting at 30.

Always another great video. I especially like the electronic types. And therefore I challenge you to test the replacement circuit board for Green Works 40 volt battery packs. I had one get a little wet and stop working. However the battery voltage is 40 + volts but will not run the trimmer or charge. I get red lights when trying either option. But Aliexpress sells a replacement circuit controller for this 40 volt battery pack, cheap. Do they actual work? Thumbs Up!

The VAT that is supposed to go to your government goes straight into Aliexpress' pockets. They don't pay their VAT, see declared value on the packages. This angers me, cause I have wasted a ton of time with their customer service trying to get a refund due to being charged double VAT. They guarantee a refund but this is straight bs, you won't get a refund for your double VAT no matter what. Do not buy expensive items on AE! I did, and regret it to this day.

The hand drawn diagrams are super satisfying. I usually hand draw my schematics before drawing them on solidworks and i spend entirely too much time trying to make them look perfect. No one will probably ever see them but i enjoy doing it that way. It s a way to make my brain think a bit more and it sticks better in my memory also. I could watch you draw them out all day lol, thank you for the clear explanations when your doing it as well.

The search's 'smart algorithm' often only show things that are in my cart, having nothing to do with my search terms. One fix for this is to open an incognito window that's not logged in and search from there. I then copy and paste the links to my logged in window to add to cart.
I just purchased an IP2368! It looks neat.

I'd love to see more. To be honest, the items in this video were mostly junk, there's a lot more useful items on AliExpress. Like all sorts of audio and video adapters, storage bags, ZigBee controllers for RGB strips and more. Stuff you simply can't buy in stores anywhere and if you buy it online you pay a heavy markup.

I like AliExpress and banggood so much but unfortunately i live in India, most of time India customs steals most of imports as they are from china, only received 2 out of 10 orders as most of them get stolen by Indian customs and also don't want to wait for almost a month to get item delivered

I think the search engine preferentially lists their VIP sellers so you need to keep scrolling. Also, there is a language issue. I don't really mind the wait but what I don't like is a lot of sellers don't seem to give a break on shipping fees for combined purchase, especially for small items.

You're using the drill powered pump wrong. You have to prime it with water or else it wont work. It's not designed to create that strong of a vacuum with air, as you have demonstrated here, albeit with the intentions that it was supposed to work this way. Cool video otherwise!

3: 35 limited capacity reduces voltage level: lol what? connect 0pf capacitor to power supply and look how much voltage will be reduced.
That device have much more components than just capacitors, and that components are, most likely, responsible for voltage drop.
