You might try to use some chip-quik alloy. It greatly lowers the melting
point of the solder.

Their flux is very good also.

How about using a commercial type Hot Plate. I have one that
can be set to temp. I use it for cleaning SMD devices off PC
boards.

Perhaps you can describe how to do this. I can't see a way that would not
make a huge mess (big torch) or not ever get there (big soldering iron). I
would really like to be able to get inside of some of these without making
them all into trash.

Hi
That's just a basic solder sealed package. It should be pretty easy to pop
open. You'll use up a bit of solder wick doing it?
