Solder is pronounced SOL-DER not SOD-ER..... Don't forget the 'L' as it could lead to misinterpretation! Hi Hi!!

It's that shitty RoHS lead free crap foisted upon the world. I didn't know there was an epidemic of lead poisoning caused by solid solders in the landfills enough to legislate the good stuff (60/40) out of existence. I've screwed a number of good boards cause of the shit that has a 1,000,000 degree melting point.

At 1:20 how could solder melt if the temperatire is below 500°F?
jishan22 2 years ago
63/37 melts at 361 F, see our howtosolder guide for an explanation of why iron temps are so much hotter than that. CuriousInventor / HowToSolder

are the 15 watt irons betr for smt
or is a tempture regulator station beter??
sam3the8kid 3 years ago
because many smt parts draw little heat, you can get away with a 15 watt iron in many cases. But in general, a regulated iron will be better since it will be able to compensate if you are soldering many pins in quick succession. Also if you need to solder a heat sink connected to a ground plane, the extra wattage and regulation will be helpful.
