yes, charging ports fail very often and the problem I have in the shop is finding such ports that are good quaitly not just china made that breaks so easily and do not last long. recently I started buying donars boards and I could extract such original ports from that and most of time I find good quality ones. thanks for sharing and have a blessed day

From the title of the article itself, I guessed it could only be from you and my guess was right! A good and informative and educative article and I thank you for that!

Although copper is known to be the best heat transfering metal, I'm not sure if most of my soldering bits are not also some sort of metal plated copper bits and also special long life metal bits? But I guess as long we keep the bits nicely cleaned and provided with enough new solder they always will work fine.
