A small tipp for desoldering connectors and similar things. Use a piece of copper ~1,5² that is long enough to make contact with all the soldering joints you want to melt. Now heat up the copper piece with your soldering iron. Add enough solder so everything is connected well and wait untill everything is melted. This way you should be able to remove for example connectors without any problems.
You need low temp solder, your solder iron it's OK. Next time probably will be safer to first remove that capacitor. My overclocked KS0 PRO still has the factory connector but I use a good quality 5.5 Jack.
Good job. that lead free solder is so terrible to worth with.
I know it’s hard to find any good soldering iron, all cheap Chinese stuff

Thanks for the tip.
What connector did you use? I only found the 90 degrees the other way. So the positive and negative are reversed on those connectors
I used crypto440 connector, he sells those on eBay, I think he has a link in his RUclips channel.

thanks, that's probably why it took me forever to get that solder out of the holes. Had to put to 400C (max 420C on that soldering iron)
