In this episode of DIY or Buy I will be having a closer look at a commercial Ultrasonic Cleaner and then also build my own DIY version. While doing so I will find out how they work, what they can clean, whether they are suitable for PCB cleaning and ultimately decide whether you should DIY one or Buy one ;-) Let's get started!
