Background and Information

Miscellaneous electronics refer to devices that don’t fit into standard electronic categories. These devices are too unique (and awesome) to fit nicely into the category of laptop, phone, tablet, television, etc. I mean, how do you tell an electronic lightsaber that it is only a children’s toy?

Whether you’ve got a broken lightsaber, fog machine, or popcorn maker, these miscellaneous electronic repair guides have got you covered. Although some devices might be obscure, no device is too obscure to take apart.

As far as identifying your device in question as a miscellaneous electronic, first, establish that it is in fact an electronic. A battery, microchip, resistor, wire, and capacitor are all helpful clues that you are indeed dealing with an electronic.

If you don’t know which section of a department store you would go to or what to click on Amazon’s website to find your device, it might be considered miscellaneous. Alternatively, peruse the categories and devices on this page and see if we have dubbed your device to be miscellaneous. If you can’t find your device in question, be sure to add a repair guide for the rest of us when you do figure out how to fix it.
