granted they should have tested her in the start but because they did other tests and she was uninsured she got slapped with the bruint of the cost

unfortunately I think a whole lot of people will get that before this is over

I hope this tears our medical system down personally

reliability always falls down to the stupid sdcard and once they actually get the usb boot part released then that aspect goes away

Does anyone know if the solder that comes with the ts-100 has flux core? I'm trying to watch videos and find out what else I need before I start going to town on things.

forest edge Mar 21, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

@rain swift prob not, usually when they bundle stuff like that it's super cheap

#

if you melt some onto like towel or paper and it leaves a greasy or sticky spot then it has a flux core, if not then nope

@rain swift The TS-100 didn't come with lead, I had to order it with flux core and flux

I updated firmware as soon as I got it... took like 2 seconds to do it.

Which firmware should I put on it?

I think it's just a matter of copying a file to it?

yup - download the file and drag, drop into the drive (usb)

download the .hex file, and copy it onto the drive, it will automatically restart and changes the file name extension to .RDY. that's all.
