Hey back,
some simmons pads contain a resistor, hooked up between life and ground to
reduce output voltage (suitable for SDS 5 and SDS 7, f.e.). It is soldered
to the two terminals of the output. To remove it, you have to open the pads
and just cut it off. Then the pads will work with all brains. Have Fun.

Ok I will try this, hopefully I can open the pads without damaging 
them.
