A painless way to de-pin a JST-XH connector
For JST TERMINAL PIN EXTRACTORS (2.50mm, 3.96mm Pitch)
I have been searching for a way to de-pin JST-XH connectors for some time. I have tried a 3D printed design I found on Printables and an Amazon bundle of various connector pinning tools. But neither of these options worked, so before I found this I was using a jeweler's screwdriver to manually remove each pin (painful). I saw this tool and though skeptical, after watching the video I decided to give it a try. I am very happy that I did, because it works perfectly. I would give this 6 stars if I could.
