eventually pickup and pass lead based alloys. One question that I have, do you need a special type of iron for lead free soldering or just a different tip? I noticed both Hakko and Aoyue shows a different model that is rated for lead free duty. They show the same temperature range but are fitted with a larger heating element (70w vs 50w). -- www.blackcube.org - The Texas State Home for Wayward and Orphaned Computers
