Lead free sucks. 63/37 fo' life, yo.
I agree with the last two posts. Lead-free also has a higher melting point. But, I fear, that the world will follow suit with the EU and Japan eventially.
I need to get "6 3 3 7" tattooed on my fingers. Of course, I'd have to get the existing "THUG LIFE" removed...
Nothing quite like the smell of solder in the morning
Cigarette smoke is far worse then the solder smoke. Nigel has better info, but for the most part the fumes from solder are more or less harmless. The fumes are generated by the flux not the metal. If the lead and lead free solder use the same flux there will be no difference. Depending on what flux is used in the lead free solder, it could be worse.LOL yeah that and a morning smoke, nothing better than a double shot of carcinogens to start your day off right..
