 Hello Listers,
 
 OK, what can you do when both electrode wires are gone?
 
 Here is an in field emergency, last ditch, almost insane methode of saving
 a section.  Use your side cutters and chip away a bit of glass where the
 wire goes into the glass pinch.  Expose about 1/16th of an inch or just
 enough to see a stub of wire.  Get your soldering iron and attach a piece
 of tie wire to the stub. Voila! (sp)
 
 This is not a joke it actually works. >>


Been there.... done that....


No kidding ......it works some of the time.  
Some of my old Christmas stuff is still workong after many seasons after
doing this.
