Hi all,
Just wondering if many of you do anything with Electronics?
I do a bit and my current (sorry for the pun) issue is with soldering Surface Mount Device (SMD) LEDs and was wondering if anyone had any experience that they could pass on. I need to replace the SMD LEDs in a couple of microscopes as they did not have appropriate heatsinks and are very dull, so I have the PCB but need to replace the actual LED as the company who supplied the microscopes wants approximately $20 for 1 and I am sure that if I figure it out it will turn out cheaper.
Thanks
Andrew
