After doing this mod myself recently, I'm not sure that those who haven't can appreciate just how small the 16510 actually is.... even for a SM. Pin 10 is the end one, and is the most fragile. I seriously doubt that you will be able to chip away at the casing to expose more leg - there's just no room. It's difficult enough - even with glasses AND a good magnifying glass to see anything. Mucking around with individual legs on this chip'd be well-nigh impossible.

This is the photo I took of the wiring coming off mine. I was damn lucky to actually see what the heck I was doing at all. Those wires are single-core wire-wrap, which is very thin indeed.
