I work for an EPCI contractor installing and commissioning pipelines and subsea / topside control systems, I can nip into the marine base after work or on a weekend, we’ve got a full rework station and analysis kit. I had a physically smashed board and one with a damaged mcu - no risk other than time if it didn’t work. It’ also takes a couple of weeks minimum to get A replacement in Indonesia
As Long as your careful with the heating and diligent in confirming no shorted pins before powering it up you’re unlikely to damage anything, the worst that usually happens is overheating the board and all the other components start moving about granted that’s a nightmare to sort out.
