Monitor is all fixed for my Atari Jaguar Kiosk
Bryan L.

A few weeks ago my rare Atari CRT SC1435 Monitor for my Kiosk displayed mood video - just a faint glow at the center. I called over a half a dozen TV repair shops locally and all over the US/UK. After doing some research, the flyback transformer is faulty. After getting expensive quotes from others + having to ship the CRT - I'm glad I found Peter at AwakeTV. After dropping off the device the initial diagnostic fee is $45 which would be applied if I went with the repair. After a few days, I got a call and Peter confirmed that the Flyback transformer is the culprit and burnt out/leaking. I sourced the part at a local Atari dealer (Best Electronics in SJ) and has the part shipped to his shop. A few days later, the CRT was fixed and Peter also checked and repaired other bad capacitors. Look at my pics, I'm so excited that my monitor is back up and running and very pleased with Peter's excellent communication and quality of work. FYI, most shops would either charge too much $$$ or wouldn't not even touch an old CRT. Total cost: $125 for labor ($45 applied) + the part = very reasonable. This monitor if you can find one on eBay sells for $300-$500 + USED! I highly recommend this establishment and thanks again Peter on taking on the challenge of repairing this 30+ year old CRT :)

Half tv for now lol but he was totally honest

See all

They have always looked out for us, taking care of our computer needs, especially when we need their computer experience to "fix the problem".

We called several repair shops, and this was the only one that told us the evaluation was free, so we drove a long way to bring it in. They told us they would open the computer and inspect it, but instead they powered it on immediately and left it closed. The next day, it was obvious they had not opened or inspected it at all. Then suddenly they wanted $99 just to open the back and take a look inside, which was completely different from what we had been told before. Without even opening the computer, they insisted that it would never work again and tried to sell us another laptop. The whole experience felt dishonest and honestly felt like a scam. We wasted two days driving back and forth and lost valuable time when we could have left the laptop open at home to let the moisture evaporate. The way they handled it made us feel as though they wanted the laptop to get worse so they could charge us to repair it.

I had a sick iPad a couple of years ago; later an older Dell laptop was giving me headaches, and most recently my NEW HP laptop was acting up. I treat it like a baby and don't use it that much but it was responding with the black screen of death. I rang Clever Tech and spoke with Eduardo. Based on the serial number he was able to tell if my warranty was still valid. He took time out to assist as well as was possible over the phone. I ended up visiting their shop in San Jose (Brokaw area) on Murphy Ave the next day. He checked it over and quickly determined that it was something simple having to do with not having completed some updates. it's a mystery to me how he knew all this, but he is the expert after all. It turned out to be a quick fix. Obviously that may not always be in the cards but it was this time. Eduardo and Jesus (and others in their crew) are always polite, personable and super smart. Their rates are fair and I will always go to them for repairs. By the way, Eduardo mentioned that he and his team opened another shop, this one in downtown Saratoga on Big Basin Way. It has a different name... It's called YeaMac. I don't hope for more problems with my laptop, iPhone etc. but if a problem arises I know exactly where to go to get resolution.

I came here on the Yelp recommendations, so thanks guys!…read more From start to finish everything went smoothly. Phone call consult, booking, turn-around time, communication, price, and pick up were all on point. They also went above and beyond for something they did not need to do, but did for me upon request. I think pricing is reasonable and everything seemed to flow flawlessly so I would recommend them. Bonus points for easy parking due to being part of the commercial building and California Sourdough is right below them of you get hungry like me! Haha.
