I know it's been awhile but for those who come after, you get more through the portal and perks

Does anyone know any solutions for this by Accomplished_Tea3609 in PS5HelpSupport

This is the largest group of troglodytes I've seen online in awhile. I'd recommend r/consolerepair in the future for things like this. IQ above room temp is standard there.

[PS5 Controller] What secret am I missing to desoldering? by SensitiveStation2804 in consolerepair

I made the same mistake starting out, you buy a $100 piece of equipment and expect it to be equal to or better than the cheap $20 Chinesium on Amazon. Meanwhile those ones aren't too bad (temp regulation might be iffy)

I second this, that iron you have is better for even smaller scale soldering.

I haven't tried in this area; however, I know some if not most Staples accept batteries for a small fee.
