@mattskala I have nightmares over lead free solder. That stuff s horrible :(
Shows you got some soldering skills if you can handle it though.
@freemo I don't really have a choice because I sell to Europe. I didn't find it to be all that bad, though. Noticeably different from lead but I quickly got accustomed to it. It helps to use the right soldering iron temperature, flux, etc. There are also differences among the lead-free alloys - I'm using Sn96, which is a little more expensive but also a little easier to use than Sn99. Both are popular.
@mattskala I'm in europe but still use lead as i mostly prototype and done sell.
I tried lead free a few times and it just globbed up on me.
By the way want a free protoboard I will start selling soon? I'm giving a few away for free,, no shipping.
