Any #solder experts out there?
My Levoit air purifier (LV-PUR131) stopped powering on, so I found a YouTube video that suggested replacing the capacitors in the power supply.
After #soldering new capacitors on though, the thing still doesn't power on.
No idea if I did it wrong or if the problem is bigger than the power supply.
Is there any way to verify if I 'properly' soldered them on?
