It goes with any open-heart job — Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, DS, PSP, PS1, PS2, Dreamcast, Anbernic, Miyoo or TrimUI handheld consoles, controllers, PC boards and Raspberry Pi. It doesn't plug into anything and doesn't fit inside any console.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"color:#111213;font-size:1.35em;\"\u003eSkill level required\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeginners welcome. Always cut after soldering, never before, and hold the offcut with a finger or fine tweezers: a snipped lead flies off fast and can reach an eye — safety glasses remain good practice. Work on an unplugged device, with capacitors discharged on a home console. Alongside these cutters, keep a soldering iron, desoldering braid and the right screwdriver for your device.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"color:#111213;font-size:1.35em;\"\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e1 pair of precision side cutters\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-top:16px;\"\u003eDelivery in 10 to 18 days · ships within 3 to 5 days · 2-year legal guarantee of conformity · 14-day returns.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fun-Esports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54540508954957,"sku":"1005007465091242-Default Title","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/7636\/5133\/files\/pince-coupante-de-precision_e7c017a2-0ed2-4bf2-ac05-1bb2e6be3223.png?v=1787315410","url":"https:\/\/fun-esports.de\/en\/products\/precision-flush-cutter","provider":"Fun-Esports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
