Step 4Rewire the BlinkM
After programming it, I removed the pins from the BlinkM and soldered the 4 conductor wire to it.
I really did not want to do this but it was the best way it would fit nicely into the push-button switch with a solid connection coming out of it. I just used some de-soldering braid and helping hands to hold it in place.
As a side note, you may want to consider soldering a 6 conductor wire for all the six connections on the BlinkM as it turned out to be harder to reprogram it when I wanted to change the timing or the flashing rates.
