Okay so I was walking down the road the other day and glanced down into the drainage ditch and saw a kind of familiar shape.
I was pretty sure I knew what it was, but had to go back and fish it out just in case.... So, like an idiot I climbed into the ditch and lo' and behold, it really was a PC Engine core grafx console and (probably) power adapter! However, the adapter was mostly buried under mud and the cord snapped off when I tried to pull it out, so I left it. Here is the video of my encounter.
I get home and as soon as I pull it out of the bag, I know this thing is in serious trouble. Here are pictures of all sides.
As you can see, the damn thing is crawling with worms and dang seashells even! I tried to clean off as best as I could, but this thing is seriously caked in mud. I rinsed the internals out and didn't even put a dent in how much mud is inside of it. Three or four seashells fell out of the inside, as well as these boys here.
They probably don't work any more, but I can probably find other 25V 47uF caps somewhere around here. Anyway, I tried for like two hours to clean it out. However, it's a complete mess. So I figured I would put it outside to dry for a while, and I'll update whenever I can get it fully open. Might need to drill it out because the screws crumbled away as soon as I tried to pry them off!
