Default Convert from Circuit Board (PCB) to a conventional switch panel
Can anyone tell me how difficult it would be to convert from a printed circuit board (PCB) to a more conventional rocker switch/breaker panels such as one made by Blue Sea or Seasense? My PCB has issues with broken quick connectors which will require de-soldering and soldering new terminals and I think it may be time to convert the whole system. I only have six active switches on my current setup (Acc; Bilge; Livewell 1; Livewell 2; cockpit lights and Navigation Lights but will probably get an 8 switch panel for expansion options. By the way, this is for a 19' Polar CC. Thanks in advance for any suggestions or comments. I will try and attach a few pictures so you can see what I am working with.

It's not very hard to covert it, but you will need to use a program.

It's not very hard to do, but it already depends on your skills, so if you are not experienced then better don't do it. I have once tried to do the same work as you now and succeed only to destroy the circuit board. What is pcb, I was thinking that it won't be very hard to do it, but after that, I understood that it would have been much better if I just address a professional or ask my friend to help me because he has once done such a work, but I didn't do this and have to pay after that fir such a fault.
