Not only can Ben fix just about anything, he's done some slick custom designs for audio and other gadgets. Top notch!

Perfectly repaired a 30+ year old stereo receiver that my grandma got me when I was in the 6th grade!! Hated to throw it away but it works great again now👍

My third generation Kindle stopped charging and Ben was able to quickly fix it for a really reasonable cost. Even better was that he picked it up which was super convenient. I've since had him repair my Asus tablet computer when the USB port broke. Highly recommend!

Ben was personable, and provided very good customer service. I had several pieces from the 80s in for repair, and he kept me abreast of progress, daily. He gave me the option to cease efforts, or proceed, every step of the way. His labor rate is quite reasonable, and all indicators point to a high level of competence.

I don't normally post reviews, but The Resistance helped me out with an impressive level of service for classic PC repairs. I had an old PC in storage that I wanted to use again, but the power supply had failed. The Resistance checked it out and told me how they could repair it before starting the work. Very impressed with the level of care and customer service! I would recommend their service highly to anyone needing electronics / device repair

Amazing electrical repair service. I don’t tend to review businesses, but as a startup they are doing all the right things for customer service. I had a receiver that began malfunctioning recently - to turn it on/off you would have to press another button that was not even the power button. Eventually it stopped functioning completely. Ben came to pick up the unit from my house which was super convenient, and very quickly responded with the diagnosis and estimate. It only needed some minor soldering and the unit was back working properly! I highly recommend this business for any type of electronic repair regardless of the product you can tell Ben is very knowledgeable). You will be treated well and most importantly there is a level of trust and confidence that you don’t get with most businesses that is refreshing. (And there is only less piece of trash in the landfill!!)

I had a key fob (Nissan/Infiniti) go through the wash machine and contacted Resistance to see what they could do. He found a used fob to swap some components from and got it working for me again. Quick turn around and reasonable pricing. I'd definitely use again/ recommend.

My wife accidentally spilled an entire Yeti cup of coffee on a table top. No big deal except my Yamaha AV receiver was on the shelf underneath. I thought it was done for, but after some testing and research Ben was able to expertly handle the repair and now it's good as new! Excellent communication throughout the process and expedited service. A+++ rating.
