LED De-Soldering
Posted: Sun Jul 11, 2021 12:01 pm
Hi Folks,
This may just be my inexperience showing but is anyone else having a devil of time desoldering the old LED's sometimes? Sometimes they drop right out but others the buggers are welded in there good and proper which is a pain to remove! I use a desolder pump (manual) usually, applying fresh solder and then popping the old stuff out. Just once in a while they will not budge! Is it just me? It seems to be just the LED's too - fuse, caps - and so on - just come out fine. <Shrugs>
