Thank you!!!

I am a 20+ year seller on eBay with 100% positive feedback, but their fees are getting out of control. With shipping and fees + random 0 feedback buyers, it's pretty rough selling on eBay.


I'm going to start listing items I have for sale here and if we arrange a sale directly with PayPal, Venmo, or or Wise, you'll get the best price and a bonus MD with your order.

I'll typically include a "shipped price" for the United States, but for other countries, we'll have to talk (DM me on Instagram or email me: hien at technicalinitiative.com). I'll typically have cleaned/lubed and tested these devices, but if not, I'll let you know!


Here's what's for sale as of October 27, 2024 - info links are to the MiniDisc Wiki!


Panasonic SJ-MJ100 in pink with remote and dock - $90

You will need a 3.5v power supply, but I will include a gumstick battery. You can also just buy a gumstick charger like this one!











Kenwood DMC-T55 in blue with speaker dock, remote, and JDM power supply - $100

This is a complete set with a gumstick battery. If you don't want to get a voltage transformer, you can
get a 5v USB PSP charging cable for the dock which can recharge the gumstick when you dock it.









Sony MZ-B100 - $old!

This awesome MDLP field recorder has built in speakers and stereo mics! It's in great shape and comes with the wrist strap and Sony logo bag for safekeeping. It runs of just a single AA battery!
















Sony MDS-JE700 in gold with remote - $199

This is a "high end" SP-only recorder/deck with RCA and optical inputs. It's a great one that I've repaired the write head and changed the belt on. It should be good for years to come and I'll ship it with tons of padding or double-boxed.

Recertifying your CCIE for less than $600 (or less than $800)! Updated 2023

This is a 2023 update to my previous post about using Cisco Continuing Education (CE) credits to recertify your CCIE. Let's cut to the chase: You need/want to recertify your CCIE without taking an exam and you need to do it as quickly and cost-effectively as possible. Thanks to Cisco's Continuing Education program, you've had the option earn CE credits for years, but sorting through courses to find the best use of your time and money wasn't the easiest. Since it's time for me to recertify, I've had to dig into it a bit more and I hope this updated information helps you, too! Can I expense this? Probably! If you're working at a company that requires/benefits from your certifications and ongoing training, you should be able to expense your training courses! Step 1 - Determine your status Go to https://ce.cisco.com and login with your credentials to view your Dashboard of current certifications and training items you have taken in the past.  Mine looks like th...

YouTube MiniDisc Repair - Sony MZ-RH1 Finally Replacement OLEDs for Dead OEM Ones

The Sony MZ-RH1 (2006) is one of the most coveted Sony portables out there and was their last portable recorder. It had it all: NetMD, Hi-MD support, a built-in mini-USB port, and amazing dual OLED displays. It still looks great, but it can be hard to use with dead displays on the body. Well, this amazing MD community never ceases to amaze me. First it was Web MiniDisc Pro, and now Sir68k on the MiniDisc Wiki Discord has researched and made replacement OLEDs for the Sony MZ-RH1. I was lucky enough (thanks MDcon.live!) to get my hands on two sets of them to test the process and replace the dead OLEDs in my MZ-RH1 and in another community member's MZ-RH1. I won't give you a full play-by-play here since there is the video to watch and the steps/procedure could change a bit depending on how future revisions go. I want to say this first: I know it's exciting news, but Sir68k (like many of us!) have a day job and this hobby is something that gets worked on during spare time. Ple...
