i'm scared of the magic cancer smoke
Just get the lead free solder and no clean flux, it's much less cancer
is it still magic tho
Oh 100% magic. And SMT hot air soldering is voodoo magic
Interesting, I haven't heard about that.
For systems that...may experience some degree of vacuum...it's common to use lead solder still because it doesn't tin whisker so unfortunately it's still around for some of the stuff I've worked on.
Lead free sucks ass and you can pry my leaded solder from my cold dead hands.
Seriously just wash your hands.
Fumes don't contain lead, it's not nearly hot enough. Those fumes are flux burning.
Leaded is objectively better for everything except health/pollution. Which is the point of RoHS.
Leaded solder has a lower melting point, flows much better, easier to visually see bad solder joints, and doesn't form whiskers. Also less brittle, so cracked joints are less likely.
Or just use an extractor.
Yeah that's the real answer...
