 Hey everyone Shaber 1000 here today. We've got one of these lights you put out for Christmas. It's called star shower and it's Working, but it's not So I'm gonna show you what it's doing or should I say not doing in this case This is a few years old and I'll show you that I've never had one of these ones this particular one here part before So I'm guessing there's screws down inside of here and it's got these rubber pieces here some guessing There's four screws in there and this probably comes out, but there's a switch up here So I don't know how it's going to get by the switch We just have to see These things are cheap this from bald head As you can see this is scotch taped on here I didn't do that But So let me get this plugged in and I'll show you what it's not doing Okay, so this is what we got going on if I turn it on now I'll have to block the light off because it comes on automatically when it gets dark There's a late sensor down here. I may have to shut the lights off There we go. Okay. See the green. I don't want to shine it directly in the camera But the green monkey's phone It's supposed to be doing stuff, but the green is on all right now. There's off and If I put it over the red just block it off again Okay, so you can see the red light right see the red light on there but If you put it up against something can you see my hand? There's no red light It's not coming through But as you can see It's on right there So we're going to try to take this thing apart I've had this for several years We had a couple years outside and then the red just kind of quit Doing its thing ever, you know just cut losing more and more red dots or whatever They're supposed to be stars or whatever and then they just got down to one or two now There's none so we just keep it. I keep it over there. We set it on the toaster toaster not plugged in And then it shines out through the room So what I'm going to do is I'll plug this. Yeah, it's already missing one of these things I Want to have to shine a light down in there? get my Little screwdriver set out here. I'll shine a light down in there And let's see We can't see what it takes Okay, it's one of those triangles Okay, now Let me get you have moved back around here and we'll work on this together Okay, so I'm not going to be able to use this one because it's not long enough to get down in here I think they do that on purpose because they don't want you fixing these things So I've got This screwdriver as you can see the tip has been modified Because I've Taken screws like this out before I'm going to pry this off of here My little I got a little polk hat knife. I sell these Box they come in Just a nice little pocket knife I got them on sale right now. It's just uh, it's usually two dollars. I got them on sale now for a dollar So let's go ahead and Pop these oh, I thought they'd be harder to get out than that So no wonder why that popped out. Let's go ahead and take off this cord It's all waterproof. It is they are good waterproof But we'll know if we can get inside this thing How waterproof it is if there's any rust or anything then we'll know it's not very waterproof Because I think the first year was fine If I remember right and then I think the second year is when we started It started the red started fading out if I can feel this in here Yeah, I just wish these were a little bit longer But that's okay But like I said, I think they do this on purpose So you don't Get inside here and try to fix these things. I can't feel life of me remember where we got this Or how much it was Bob head? I'm guessing it came from Walmart or Dollar general I'm thinking we bought this at Walmart But I'm not sure why Why the red is lit up, but it's not shining out like it should Doesn't make sense But yeah, I modified this The screwdriver because I had to take those out before before I had that set Just kind of bent one ear over so it will fit I'll show you here when I get these out How you can actually use it to just to To came out you can see this See that and then your screwdriver Can get kind of like at an angle there Just like that Trying to show you Anyway, it will go in there if you have a small enough screwdriver All right, so there's the third one There's the fourth one and now let's try to pull this out, but See it's a thing this I'm not sure how to switch Can come out of there, but we'll see maybe that part stays in the rest comes out. I don't know There we go And now let me look down in here. There's more screws Let's get a light on here light on the subject these are just Looks like one of those Phillips or straights. No, it's a Phillips just a real weird-looking one So If I remember which one is red and green Think the one on the right was the red This is I'm just looking down in here to see what I can see It may got all kinds of stuff going on up here. The lights are working. It's just that one's the red one's not shining out like it should so What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take these screws out around here They're all down in the bottom there. See how all around the sides there there's one down there and There and there I'm gonna take these out. I'm gonna use a screwdriver for and then once I get them out We'll see what's going on. I'll show you more That way I don't bore you with taking out a whole bunch of screws hang tight guys. I'll be right back Okay, I've got all the screws out Let's top part here comes off all the screws are inside still Bunch of them couple stay in here. I think there was six of them I'm stuck right there. One of these was the red one. I know you're not supposed to do this but we're gonna do this because I need to Find out which one's which okay, so the red ones on the right right there But it's really really dim and it's not showing up on my hand. I don't know why It's not even if I go close. I can barely see it on my finger. So my guess is That's an LED which is a you know, it's a lighting meeting diode. It's not really a light I'm just guessing. Maybe it just got dim So let's go ahead and take these out And if that's the issue then you know, there's really no way to make it brighter See so one of them I think you see down in there It's got like a heat a giant heat sink around the green one right there But it don't have one around the red one a lot, maybe it was pulling out a little bit or something like this There's a screw on each side of that There's one on the red one one on the red one. I wonder if you can adjust them make them closer But why would it work and then not not be working? You know Let's take this out See the red one This should be the red one right there. Yeah That's the red one Let's go ahead and take this out Bring this up out of here. Anyway, I don't know if you can see but there's that screw right there And that's on the red one It looks like there's an adjustment there, but why would it go out of adjustment? You know Okay, let me study up on this Well, it's really nothing to study except look at it And I'm gonna see if I can adjust that and push it down maybe a little bit farther. I don't know That's um, let's try it and see I mean so I loosen that Now Okay, yeah, you can move it up and down so it is adjustable Take this back up. Let's plug it in at the first time. There we go. I can see red now So I can see two dots Let's Let's put this back in here and we'll put that cover on that's what makes it do the sparkly things So let me get this screwed back in and then And then we'll put this on together Because right now I can see it on my hand see that red dot Say it couldn't see that before Also, there's looks like you can adjust this You can Now let me get that put in there. It's just them two screws See how did it go like this one and make sure to break them wires off that switch Yeah Like that like that make sure you get the right screws here and goes these two I can tell you this has been outside in the rain and I don't see any signs of rust or Any signs that moisture has gotten into this thing so because I said Told monkey. I said if I can get that working That's how I'll put it on the side of the vet towards the back That was a pretty much big no She likes it in the house her mom likes it Okay, let me fiddle around with this Make sure to get the right screws and then I'll be back with you guys hang tight. Okay guys, so I was checking everything out and The green went really really dim so Now it's like let me shut the light off There it is and it went real. I know it looks right on camera, but trust me it is not So it went the green went down too so Unfortunately, we can't fix everything Sometimes it makes it worse, but I did learn some things about this. These aren't really LEDs. It's a laser There's a red one and a green one They're both on but they're very dim and a green one just went dim for no reason So it looks bright on my hand, but if you go to shine it on the wall It's you really can't see it so I'm gonna go outside and get my other one. I won't bring it in here for her because she really likes it So anyway guys, I'm gonna get my hat on here because we're working on Christmas stuff. All right, so it is our This thing is like it's sixth season so we had a couple that at two seasons out outside and Then three sees whatever I said earlier three seasons in here or whatever so yeah It happens So you can't even hardly. I mean It's not very bright at all. It'd be okay in a dark dark room But anyway So let me go get the other one. I won't set it up for I'll show you what it looks like Okay, so there's what we got I Turned these out so you can see better of what you know Yeah, so we got sparkles looks a lot better in person of course, but and these Don't twinkle and twinkling. So yeah, that'll be fine Then I'll go outside and put something else out there. Like I said, this is just I Mean if you have it Close to something You know like on that but Or that wall But if you go out there, you can barely see it on the door so Yeah, unfortunately, we can't fix everything but anyway guys Twinkle Well, I guess we'll see you in the next one. Like I said, we can't fix them all Excuse me. There's a potentiometer in those things. I Did try to adjust it, but It just it wouldn't go any brighter It'll get I can adjust it dimmer, but not brighter So the green one went out to just that had to happen just as I was working on it, of course That's okay All right, there we go. That's um, let's plug these lights in We didn't have lights on last year turn Dark There we go Look at these lights. Yeah, so you can still see them. It's pretty and I got these lights up under here red blue and green Okay, guys. So anyway, thanks for watching. There's the Christmas tree. We made all that came out back in there That we made live-stream year before last Still kicking how far please all right guys. Thanks for watching appreciate it.
