<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1257342, member: 22143&quot;]Yeah lead free solder is a big problem though it has not been universally adopted and some equipment is exempted.&nbsp;&nbsp; Removal of lead from solder causes numerous issues, some of which are not well understood.&nbsp; They are still working on alternatives.&nbsp; It&#039;s an over-reach by the EU where the restriction came from.&nbsp; 80% of the lead used by industry goes in automobiles, (batteries &amp; wheel weights).&nbsp; They did nothing about that. </p><p><br /></p><p>Silver may be added to electronic solder as part of the recipe, but it&#039;s in such a miniscule amount that I don&#039;t see where it&#039;s going to change demand.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
