Hello everybody,
I've got a small music player that has got a small switch, the switch can either be on or off. At the moment, the switch is a little small, and in an inconvenient place. I think I'm rightly reluctant to try and set a small motor going just to flick it either way, not to mention that would probably be a little overkill.
I've uploaded the couple of pictures which have turned out the best (sorry, the second one is slightly blurry). As you can hopefully see, it seems to be a small SMD thing, but I'm wondering if I try and desolder it, I could easily end up damaging the device as it is so small. So, any tips on working with such a small device and what do you recommend would be the best way to activate and deactivate the circuit it when I get the physical switch off? It's running from a very small lithium ion battery (rated 110mAh - yes 110), so later on I might also see about getting something with a bit more juice.
Thanks very much.
By the way, I shall be AFK for the next 2 - 3 hours.
