A easier way?
« on: January 08, 2008, 10:20:28 PM »
OK, my psp is apart and I am starting to put it all back in my clear case but went ahead and started on the led wire for the back but I have only been able to solder one led out of 12, is there a easier way to do this, I have electronic silver solder and its like it wants to stick to the soldering iron. Would rosin core solder be runnier?

maybe if you use some flux it will stick better.

i tried that, like i stick the wire into it then onto the led but when i go to touch it with my soldering iron, it all heats up and turns into liquid flux and washes everything out of place?

try pre-tinning the LED with the solder then place it onto where youre going to solder and heat up the surrounding area
