Yeah.. i got a round UV Cold cathode and the wire was ripped out of its socket.
As in there is no wire sticking out of the bulb it broke flush with the glass, sry i dont have a camera to take a pic, but i'm sure you guys understand what the problem is.
Are there anyways of repairing this? because where ever i look round uv ccfl's are $10 and up, this one came with a blue uv fan and cost me like $8USD +shipp.
I dunno maybe having another fan around wouldnt be bad, but i still want to repair this CCFL.
Any ideas? I dont have any solder on hand, wish I did, but do you think if i put a little soldero on the wire and connect them it'll work?
thanx

Edit: no one? well i got a pic from a crappy camera if it'll help
