I have actually. Absolutely no effect.

I'm going to solder on a new connector, so I don't need to get the back off anymore. If that doesn't work, can I replace the whole cable? It seems like it goes deep into the monitor.



What do you guys think about instead of soldering on a connector at the very end, cutting the cable at the monitor and soldering on a female connector? I would be able to use a separate cable that way, and simply replace it if/when that one breaks.

They were also showing them the basics of soldering. They didn't have any fancy smoke extractor set-up. It was held in a community center.
I mean, a community center is larger than an apartment. If it's been done before, I guess it's ok.
