I have managed to solder the headers to the wrong side of my Explorer pHat (inexperienced!) - I'm assuming therefore that it's unusable as the holes in the header (technical term?) will not match up to the correct pins on the Pi Zero.
I don't mind just buying a new one, but wondered if there were any other options - desoldering it seems like it might be fiddly, since the soldering iron I was using was a cheap one and the soldering not brilliant. I also don't have a desoldering pump and would rather spend the money I might spend on that on a better soldering iron.
Is there anything I can use to connect the correct pins from the Zero to the right holes on the Explorer? I have seen some 40-pin jumper cable strips - would something like this work?Any advice would be much appreciated...
