You're not one of those RoHS deniers are you? I hate to break it to you, but EVERYTHING made in the last ten years is made with lead-free solder and ta-da: it all works perfectly well.
- aidenn0 13y agoYes, they've figured it out now. There was an ugly transition period though.
- analog31 13y agoAgreed, but I'd add that the transition period coincided with the switch to water based flux processes, and the headlong rush to China. All of those things involved their own sets of birthing pains.
- rasz_pl 13y agoYes ,everything ..except automotive, agricultural, aviation, health and so on basically anything that is even remotely critical is exempt.
- CamperBob2 13y agoOver the past few years, pretty much everything critical has been built with standard SnPb solder under various RoHS exemptions. Most of those exemptions have recently expired or are expiring soon. It is far too soon to pat yourself on the back over the apparent absence of adverse consequences.
