Your not getting this right.

They did test. Its a good Thermal Adhesive compound.

 

 

I agree. And the RX-8 is a good car based on the Wankel Engine.

(3) Mc Donalds knife for mixing

I agree it was a poor mixing job. Especially when you compare to the TechIngridients video. A better mix may have performed better.

His response seemed pretty diplomatic. Called your application reasonable of a typical user. And expressed disappointment.

 

I very much look forward to any follow up they may do.

 

And, I think it's pretty awesome that you did this video at all. I certainly enjoyed it very much. So thanks!

Yup, read that (before posting even :P).
Personally I think they wrote this a bit political, but don't me wrong, they aren't the type of people to go "mhhhhhh you didn't mix that properly hurrrr!!!!!!" anyway.
With your channel size (and videos I have seen over the last years), I just expected better. Not perfect. Not close to perfect. Just quite a bit better than what I saw.

So...
I don't know if you took my post as a 100% "get fucked", but the reply definitely makes it seem so (to me).
Maybe I can clear that up?!

Like I said, I don't expect this to be GN level. Not your style, and definitely not your audience.
But even so between the lines I stated that (and don't take this the wrong way again :D) "even you" usually have a way higher standard of doing stuff. IMO! (this is a compliment, hidden in a "that wasn't that good" post! ;))

(1) was meant for general lookup so folks don't need to google themself. Could have been in the video, but meh, not the end of the world.
(2) (3) was meant as "business advice" - you just very recently had a fuckup with "not properly done your homework". I didn't expect ultrasonic/sandpaper, but at least trying to get a proper mix 😮 which is why I said (4) ;)
(5) Again general info without a hidden agenda.
(6) Basically same level as (1)


If whoever worked on this knew everything from the TI video, great, but like I said I didn't feel at all like that made it through to the actual video.
I don't see the internals, I see the product.

Hey guys I need some help I’m planning to get this as a thermal glue (for electronics/pc parts) but are normal thermal glues better? And is thermal tech ingredients thermal epoxy electrically conductive and might damage the motherboard if spilled?
