It was meant as a joke. I still use SnPb eutectic solder, and I think my ~1 kg is a lifetime supply I think I can blame this for my dumbness, since I used to hold the solder in my teeth during construction and repair.
I have this religious belief, scientifically not proven, that Pb-free solder made some of the surface-mount boards in my car less reliable. There were some medium-power current-limiting resistors where one of the solder joints eventually cracked ad left an open circuit. I blame this on the ROHS solder being more brittle and the thermal cycling eventually fatiguing and cracking the solder after 5-10 years. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
