Need broken headphones or earbuds

Hello,

I need some broken earphones or earbuds (specifically the cable and the jack) for a project. I can use anywhere between 5 to 30 of these. So if you have any you wish to get rid of, please let me know or put them in my bin (it is labeled with my name, Oguz Yetkin, in the front wall of the kitchen).

Thanks for helping me recycle your electronics :slight_smile:

Still need them?

I have a few I could send your way!

#3

Yes. That would be great!!

#4

Cool, I’ll track down your bin sometime this week.

#5

I probably have some. Finding them is the trick.

#6

I have 4 sets of headphones that I’ll give you. I’ll put them in your bin on my next visit.

#7

How many do you need? What types? BT Headsets work?

What are you doing with them?

#8

I can use up to 16 or so. I’m going to be using the jack and the thin cable mostly for my fingernail based gesture sensor project. (The audio patch cables are too thick for my purposes – also, Bluetooth will not work).

Thanks,

Oguz

Oguz, at the a dollar Tree on Josey Ln north of Valwood they had $1 headphones on the checkout line. There were 7-8 in the display on Thursday night.

Thank you for everyone who donated earphones – they have been a great help. I am now with this phase of the project.
