	&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Found a 60x60 LED panel for 20dkk in the thrift store last week. Found an LED driver in the trash a couple days later. Just had to adjust the output power and change the power connector. Who knows, &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Addressable_Lighting_Interface"&gt;dali&lt;/a&gt; control might be broken, but I&amp;rsquo;m not living in an office. Think it&amp;rsquo;s gonna be my new work desk light.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Rollei Bullet HD actioncam with dead batteries</title><link>http://salr.cc/tech/post/1785794423/</link><pubDate>Tue, 04 Aug 2026 00:00:23 +0200</pubDate><guid>http://salr.cc/tech/post/1785794423/</guid><description>&lt;span class="gallery"&gt;

	&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I found a Rollei action camera in the trash. Seems fully functional except it won&amp;rsquo;t take a charge.
The shell clicks open after removing the four visible screws at each side of the camera.
The camera has two lipo flat-packs wired in parallel and soldered to the board. Only one of the cells has a protection circuit, the other&amp;rsquo;s wired in behind it. Both cells have swollen significantly.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
