so i got one off ok, done 1 just to make sure. rather than rip all leds off and screw it more.
and i tried, hence the word tried, ok it wouldnt stay on, i tried to do blobs of solder, one at each end as it said, mine just would not do it, i touched the iron against the solder, went all wet metally, and touched the led sides, and nuthin showed up on them, seemed as if it melted and stuck to the iron
