Jerry,
I tried briefly to remove the relay for re-use. I decided quickly,
however, after starting with my equipment on hand and skill level, it
made more sense to go for full demolition since the cost of replacement
is low. I will keep your method in mind for future. I have found when
removing a 2-pin device that rocking the device back and forth while
heating works to remove 1 pin followed by heating the other pin, rocking
and pulling out the device. My current solder sucker is OK but not up
the task of removing a multipin device like these relays.
