RE: Disassembling a remote control (and still have it wo rking ;-)

["Tawn, Jonathan" <jonathan.tawn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just a thought, (although I havent tried it so just a theory)

If you got some of that 'conductive paint' for repairing keyboards / car
windscreens etc, and mixed that in with something like araldite .. would
that be conductive glue ?

If so ... just some very small gauge wire (like the stuff used for modding
x
boxes)

Just an idea anyway.

Subject:	[ukha_d] Disassembling a remote control (and
still have it working ;-)

Hi,

I would like to open up a standard remote control and put
some "Heavy
Duty Usage" push buttons to replace the Volume Up/Down ones.
The whole thing will then be reboxed and hidden so
aesthetics no
problem.

Main question - how can I attach the wires (from the
external push
buttons) to the flaky carbon layered grid on the remote pcb.
Guess
soldering won't work too well on carbon so glueing may be an
option -
but what glue and wires to use etc..

All thoughts welcome.

rgds Rob.
