Hi there fellow people,

I was building an Aurora Sofle_v2 and I may have screwed things up. I melted one of the RGBs with the soldering iron and in the process of trying to remove it the solder pad was removed as well

After that I tried to “fix” it a handful of times, and now I believe that the connectors might be gone =(

Is there a way for me to salvage this RGB? (Or perhaps to link the previous one with the following one on the chain, so at least it works for the others)

I was thinking of connecting things using cables, is this an option?

    Anything with higher % of alcohol (say >60%) will work, including IPA based disinfectant. Ideally you use pure alcohol, specifically ethanol or isopropanol or propanol.

    As the other person suggested, you can save it, but it is harder than soldiering, so perhaps practice.
