I recently recommended EEVblog to the mother of a 6 year old electronics hacker who is already playing with an electronics circuit experiment tool. Lets get 'em started young.

Dave, as a lifetime electronics hobbyist and now an EE student you have taught me tons, and piqued my interest in so many areas I never really considered. Thankyou for all of your videos, and your dedication to the channel.

I stumpled upon the multimeter video some years ago, and I've been watching since somewhat from the 300th episode range.
Most memorable video for me is definitely the huge ancient hard drive teardown!
Thanks for the good content.

[ClosetYeti]

First video I saw of yours was I think the most expensive hard drive. Almost certain I'm not alone there. Got pulled in by the teardowns and stayed for pretty much everything else. I don't understand most of it (I don't even really tinker much myself) but it seems like every video I watch there's a little more I understand. You wouldn't think a blog to be a teaching tool buy hey, it works. For me at least.

Keep being yourself, Dave. Your enthusiasm is legendary!

Congratulations on you 5th year. I have learned a great deal over the years from your openness; only you shine through.
Thanks so much for your dedication. More mail bag and Fundamentals Friday.

Hi Dave congratulations for fifth year of EEVblog. Love your blog. I have learned a lot from you so thank you very much.

[mushroomsamba]

Congrats Dave! I'm only a hobbyist and I don't always understand exactly what you're talking about however I have learned quite a lot from your videos in the past 2 years or that I've been watching. Thanks for everything you do and keep on truckin'!

Thank *you*, Dave. As an electronics student, I've been following your blog for a few years now, especially loving your teardown videos. On a recent job interview, they asked me to do a 'teardown' of one of their products (which was easy, having 4 years of eyes-on experience :) ). The next day, they called me to say I had the job! A hint for every EE student: subscribe to Dave's channel!

5 years Dave! Seen the and meet bloke in person @ Brisbane many eras ago! Thanks for all the vids bloke! Learned soooo much from you! From a sparky to a EE! 

[ThePostApocalypticInventor]

Love your story. Almost brings a tear to the eye. This would have never been possible in the days of old fashioned public broadcast. Really a big thumbs up for you ( and the internet which makes this possible).

Happy Birthday EEVBlog! This is one day before My Birthday!

Congratulations, Dave! I've been watching EEVblog for a little more than a year now, and it really helped me understand a lot about electronics. Thank you very much! Your videos are not only educational, but also very entertaining, absolutely love them. Keep up the great work!

[RodCastler]

First time I saw this guy I thought I couldn't stand his too-energetic style. Several years after that day, I admit I do more electronics than ever before, I own many of the equipment Dave has reviewed or uses regularly. Dave, you've got to a success level where if you take a straight 3 week vacation, you'll still have the exact number of faithful viewers waiting for you when you get back. Congratulations on your fifth anniversary.

Happy 5th birthday EEVBlog, and to Dave hope you keep the EEVBlog for at least 20 more years.

[Darryl]

The unique thing about your blog is that you don't turn it on, you take it apart! Keep doing what you do.Thanks Dave

[mahill]

Congrats on 5 years Dave! Thanks for all your videos. You've taught me more than you know and have inspired me as an engineer as well!

I cannot believe it 5 years since I have been watching this, thanks Dave to you and your loved one's
