Micro Soldering LAB - Thermal imaging

Micro Soldering LAB

(15 reviews)

When I first got my top-of-the-line Alienware M18 R2 laptop, the old Left 4 Dead 2 video game would…read morecrash every hour or so. I chalked it up to incompatibilities with Windows 11. Then, about a month after the warranty expired, the keyboard stopped working and the whole system would randomly hard crash several times a day. I took the laptop to a highly recommended shop for a diagnostic. They informed me that the keyboard interface card had failed and had damaged the motherboard in the process. They recommended buying a new motherboard, which would have cost about $2K. That wasn't an option. They also said a new keyboard card would cost $89. Since I did all of my software development work with an external monitor, mouse, and keyboard, I limped along for a few more months dealing with the random crashes.  When I finally had enough, in terms of both patience and funds, I ordered a refurbished keyboard card from Parts People for $20 and used Google to search for a shop that could possibly repair the motherboard. Google's AI bot ended up recommending Micro Soldering LAB in Escondido, CA.  After talking to the owner over the phone, I brought my laptop to the shop and left it. The next morning, the owner diagnosed two problems with the motherboard: First, one of the MOSFETs was damaged when the keyboard card failed. Second, unexpectedly, the liquid metal compound on the heat sinks for both the GPU and CPU was no good. He said he could have the MOSFET replaced and a better compound applied by the end of the day. True to his word, I got the laptop back fully repaired within a single day of dropping it off.  I can honestly say the laptop runs better now than when I bought it new. No more crashing during gaming or software development. I guess the GPU was overheating due to a poor initial installation of the thermal compound on the heat sinks. I am incredibly happy with the results and feel a whole lot better about the money I had spent on this laptop. I highly recommend Micro Soldering LAB for serious laptop computer repair.

I am writing this review with great happiness. As a certified klutz, I have visited swift repairs a…read morenumber of times over the years. Each time, they have delivered swift (as the name implies), high-quality, and honest service. As any repair shop is, prices aren't cheap, but I have found that you get what you pay for (and your devices can be something you shouldn't cheap out on.) Swift repairs deliver services with moderate pricing and great quality. I have also never had a problem with customer service. There is usually only one person working at a time, but that does not hinder me from a great experience. Yesterday, I went in to fix my phone that had water damage. I never asked him his name, but a young gentleman who had longer dark hair had helped me. He told me the pricing of a higher-quality screen versus an aftermarket screen, and what the w might be. As a consumer I greatly appreciate this honesty as I do not feel like I'm being charged and it further helps build my trust with swift repairs. He repaired my phone and literally less than two minutes, which to be fair. I'm sure my screen was an easy fix, but even when I have had more complicated damage, they have always made sure to prioritize and balance my order among plenty of others. All these factors kept in mind has left me overall many great experiences with this store. I highly recommend it for anyone that has any issues with electronics. Thank you!

I thought that I would have to pay Apple to fix it or get a new phone. But I went into Swift Repairs and asked if they could help me and they fixed it in less than a minute. Now it's charging no problem and I'm not going to have to get a new phone! Thanks Swift Repairs! They really know what they're doing. Friendly and fast service.

I have never seen more conman-like, devious business owner in all of my years using Yelp…read morecontractors. By far and away, the most disgusting, repulsive, lying personality I've ever dealth with. Everything I say here is backed up by hard evidence. The guy scheduled appointment with me for phone battery replacement. Said he'd need to get some glue for this and assured me he'd get - appointment was 5 days away. On the morning of the appointment, a couple of hours before I had to come over, I shot him a quick message to confirm he got the glue. He said No and said the phone repair is high risk and he didn't wanna do it. I told him this is my only phone, I need to use it a lot for calls and meetings, and it's kind of dying. I asked him if he knew he's not gonna do the battery swap, why did he take the job, sat on the appointment for 5 days, and didnt reach out? If I hadnt contacted him I would have come over for the appointment he was never going to honor. He started getting defensive, and started lying to my face about "telling me he needed parts", then he started accusing me of "threatening him", being rude to him and started threatening me himself. He started telling me he'll report my account to Yelp and that he'll sue me. After I politely asked him to go away and leave me alone TWICE, the guy kept messaging me over and over, while telling me I'm harassing him... He gave me "final warning from Franchitti's Fix LLC". I stopped talking to him and he kept sending me harassing and threatening Yelp messages, and another one just arrived, while I'm writing this very review. I'm a busy person, and don't often post Yelp reviews, but I felt with how much of a piece of work this guy is it's worth my time to warn others, because I'd hate to see innocent people walking away with the horrible feeling in their stomach, after wasting days on this guy, like I did. If you're scheduling an appointment with him - know that it means nothing to him, and he's most likely not gonna honor it. If you will "have the nerve" to ask him why he's not doing the job he took on, or confront him why he took the appointment and wasted many days of your time waiting for it, without telling you he has no intention to do the job - expect to be lied to your face about appointment being scheduled in the first place, expect to be threatened with being reported to Yelp, and to be sued. After you try to gracefully extract yourself from the conversation, and take your business elsewhere and put this guy behind you - expect him to continue harassing you with Yelp messages and threatening you for a while longer, in order to get a rise out of you and make you say something he could use to accuse you of misconduct, while he's simultaneously accusing *you* of harassing, disrespecting and threatening him. Alternatively, if you have a shred of common sense - STAY AWAY, and DON'T EVER CONTACT this guy in the first place. The choice is yours. EDIT: This is an edit in response to business owner's reply. Apparently, asking him about the glue he said he needed and would get is considered "hostile or disrespectful behavior", because right after he said he doesnt have it on the morning of the appointment, and I asked him why he made me wait 5 days and didn't tell me he's not gonna do the job, he started saying phone is "high risk", because it's thin and foldable. Don't be hostile to him, y'all - don't ask him why he's refusing to do the job, when you wait for days and come over for a scheduled, and confirmed appointment. This guy can lie all he wants, but one thing he cannot do is tamper with the evidence - he does not have access to modify chat history.

This skill level is only attained slowly over decades, and I enjoyed getting to share a little time with him while he troubleshot my Denon DP-62L turntable. The challenge now is to find the part that was discontinued in the 1980s. But I am determined to find a solution, even if I have to learn how to rewind the transformer myself. I will return with the part to let you replace it as my soldering skills were really last used in 1996. I want this to be done correctly, and I trust will happen at Classic Audio Repair. Thank you for your help. Since he only found the problem, and getting the failed part will be a challenge, if even possible, he charged me only for troubleshooting time, but not even enough for that. His business ethics are very fair! It was an hour of my time well spent. And I do have hope for the ultimate repair of my 42 year old turntable.

However, on May 15, 2026, you personally texted me stating that you would return my TV within 1-2 weeks and that you intended to make things right. I am posting that message so others can see the timeline for themselves. As of today, more than three weeks after that text and nearly 12 months after you took possession of my TV, I still do not have my TV back and my recent text messages have gone unanswered. You stated in your response that customers would be getting their TVs back soon and that you do not keep customers' TVs. Unfortunately, that has not been my experience. Despite multiple promises over the past several months, my TV remains in your possession. What has been particularly frustrating is seeing recent reviews from customers whose TVs have apparently been repaired and returned while I continue to wait without updates or communication. I am not questioning that personal hardships may have occurred. I am simply sharing my experience as a customer: my 85" Sony TV has been gone for nearly 12 months, I have paid nearly $500, I still do not have my TV back, and I am currently receiving no responses to my messages. Also, my screen was NOT damaged when he took it. It was a board/light issue. I sincerely hope this matter is resolved, and I will gladly update my review if and when my TV is returned.
