Jimmy Electronics

Jimmy Electronics is up on the first floor of Nandanvan Complex. We are at shop number 8. It’s in Vallabhwadi right on Bhairavnath Road in Maninagar. Being on the first floor means it’s a bit quieter than the shops right on the street level but we still get plenty of visitors. The stairs are a bit narrow so you have to be careful when you are carrying things up. Inside it is exactly what you would expect an electronics shop to look like. There are wires everywhere and small components scattered on the worktables. We have a few old monitors and testing equipment that have seen better days but they still work just fine for us. Maninagar is a great place to be located. There are always people around and plenty of places to grab a snack when we take a break. We’ve been in this complex for a while so we are friends with the other shop owners nearby. We spend most of our time hunched over boards with soldering irons or trying to figure out why a circuit isn't working right. It’s a lot of focus and sometimes it takes a long time to find the problem. We don't have a big marketing plan or anything. We just open up and do the work that comes in through the door. It’s a honest way to make a living. We have a small balcony where we sometimes stand for a minute just to see the traffic moving on Bhairavnath Road. It is a nice break from the tiny parts.
