I Put the Pro in AirPods Pro (with Apple's help?!)

HTTPS://SHOP.KENP.IO OPEN SOURCE: https://github.com/kenp-io/not-for-airpods-repairs The first and second generations of AirPods made by Apple were given a score of 0 out of 10 by repair specialists at iFixit. A few years later, the Pro version came out, and it still received a 0 out of 10. AirPods are not designed to be serviced. No hardware components can be accessed without damage to the device, making it a consumable/disposable item. Hundreds of millions of devices were sold, each one having three sealed-in batteries. This makes it a total electronic waste disaster. After the success of Ken Pillonel's previous project, a 3D-printed case and custom USB-C part for the AirPods Gen. 1 and 2 (and the world's first USB-C iPhone), he decided to replicate the project for the AirPods Pro series, due to great demand. The goal was to find a solution that gives a second life to the allegedly unopenable cases, which all face an inevitable end of life because of their built-in battery. His findings led him to conclude the AirPods Pro cases are easier to open than their non-Pro counterpart, yet it still not guaranteed that it can be achieved without damage. The proposed solution consists of 2 possibilities: 1. User can open case without damage: they can then replace the dying battery. If the Lightning port is broken, it can also now be replaced. An open-source USB-C replacement part is also part of the project. Users can make it themselves, but more realistically, they can now purchase it. The USB-C part fits the original case by removing a small metal part, no milling required. 2. User can not open case without damage: they can download a 3D-printed replacement part that I designed because the official replacement part does not exist. So, repairs can be made inside, and finally, the 3D-printed replacement part is inserted back in place. The USB-C replacement part is also compatible with the 3D-printed case. The goal of this project is to maximize the number of successful repairs to minimize the quantity of electronic waste. A replacement battery can be purchased online, but it is the only replacement part available. If a charging port is broken, there is no way to replace it except by getting a replacement part from another device. Now, Ken decided to sell the USB-C replacement part myself. He realized that 2 million people watched the last video where a similar project is done for the original AirPods, and only a few attempted to repair it as shown. This proved that it is too difficult to build integrated circuits at home, and the only way to have a real impact is to lower the difficulty of repair by making the ready-to-install replacement part available to purchase. - - - - - Music by my friend DJ yuppie bogan: https://linktr.ee/djyuppiebogan show him some support ♡ - - - - - Tools I use: (affiliate) Formlabs Form 3+ Printer: https://bit.ly/kenpio_form3 (500$ off with referral code "FORM3-HILMO") Formlabs Wash and Cure Machines: https://bit.ly/kenpio_formwash PCB Manufacturing: https://pcbway.com/g/t98xyH (5$ off your first order) Lampert PUK Micro Arc Welder: https://bit.ly/kenpio_lampert_micro_arc CloudRay Laser Machine: https://bit.ly/kenpio_cloudray Low Melt Solder: https://amzn.to/2YgPZGR PCB Holder: https://amzn.to/3BL18xo Fume extractor: https://amzn.to/3GPnUYE Microscope: https://amzn.to/2YknyIe Camera: https://amzn.to/3GU6uKn Macro Lens: https://amzn.to/31w3svP - - - - - My socials: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kpillonel/ Github: https://github.com/kenp-io Twitter: https://twitter.com/kenpillonel Blog: https://kenp.io Shop: https://shop.kenp.io - - - - - Link to EU studies: Common charger: https://bit.ly/3aPuraO Unbundling of chargers: https://bit.ly/3IUXVjV - - - - - 0:00 Intro 0:22 Context 0:55 Open the Case 1:19 Possibility of breaking 1:44 USB-C PCB Build Montage - Part 1 3:44 Some Explanations 3:54 USB-C PCB Build Montage - Part 2 5:14 LED issue 5:52 Final PCB 6:02 Secret Help 6:20 Replacement Shell 6:29 3D Printing Montage 7:33 Big Announcement! 8:04 Giveaway? 8:09 What's next? 8:22 Outro
