    No simon , please don't ;-) hahaha

    It worked. I thought it was epoxy but it was soldered !
    I heated it with a blowtorch i picked up at the local hardwarestore.
    just like 20-30 seconds, screwdriver in a slot and i was able to move it from eachother easily and then i noticed it was just some sort soldering (looked like silver!).

    ok, now i am off to remove some LOC's from their casing and put them into Aixiz modules to play with ;-)

    Now i need to think of a way of mounting 8 LOC's with only 10mm between the heart from one diode to the next... i have an idea or 2.... but one idea that would require highside drivers ;-)
    Or some very creative input from PL. My other idea doesn't need highside drivers. Will think about it some more....

    Keep y'all posted, will give update tomorrow with pictures ;-) and i will reveal what i am working on.
    I didn't fail !
    I just found out 10,000 ways that didn't work.

    Not an issue now, but hot NaOH disolves glass too.

    Boiling in water will soften most epoxies.
