find a better one, those things are hard to solder.

I had one with no wires or metal pieces on the outside. What I did was turn the lights out, hit the button, see where the sparks came from most of the time, taped the wire there, and then instead of having a second wire, i put my finger on the other needle/screw/whatever you use so the spark has something to jump to, it works good, as long as your finger stays on the thing
