Reusing Electrical Components From Scrapped Stuff

What to look for on discarded electronics boards that might be useful in electronic experiments like joule thief, amplifier, etc. All the basics: LEDs, plugs, switches, resistors, diodes, inductors, capacitors, ... I've got a pile of old routers, dead circuit boards, or broken electronics lying around. Let's mine them for valuable components! We’ll explore how to salvage and reuse electrical parts from scrapped electronics for your DIY and science projects. We’ll see how to recover heat sinks, diodes, capacitors, inductors, toroids, LEDs, transistors, connectors, and more, all while learning safe desoldering techniques and practical reuse ideas. These parts can be hard to find or expensive to buy new, but with a little patience and know-how, you can stock up your electronics parts bin for cheap or free. Whether you’re building a crystal radio, power supply, or experimental circuit, you’ll find plenty of inspiration and useful tips in this teardown and recovery guide. Perfect for DIYers, hobbyists, tinkerers, engineers, and tech enthusiasts who love learning how things work.

WARNING: Always use proper safety precautions when soldering or de-soldering. Electronics contain toxic materials. Recycle scrap. Do not work on high voltage circuits. If you don't know learn first or don't do it.
