Some electronic and electrical parts are more easily reused.

Here is a list of parts to give a new life. If you are ever curious what kind of parts can or can't practically be reused, go to an electronics surplus store, and look at the selection. These stores have mapped this out a long time ago. The below list is kept as a personal reference.

Easily Reusable Parts

  • Chassis (sometimes)
  • Gears
  • Fan blades (found on appliances (e.g. dryer), industrial equipment)
  • Fan modules (found on computers)
  • Lenses (found on cameras, scanners / printing equipment)
  • Motors (large) (appliances, industrial equipment, hvac, refrigerators)(many kinds)
  • Motors (small) (printers) (mostly steppers, brushless, and maybe servos)
  • Power supplies (either bricks, or bare PCB) (Linear or switching)
  • Speakers
  • Springs
  • Transformers
