    Some glues can be convinced to let loose with heat. You might want to get one of those smd rework stations. I even use it to shrink shrink tubes.

    Nobody uses 110v. Japan uses 100v. America and Canada use 120v. Some other countries use 127v. There is no 110v or 115v here unless you have REALLY corroded power lines or you're having a brownout.
