[sdiy] Heading towards RoHS compliance

[Justin Owen]

Hey all,

I'm considering getting some RoHS compliant PCBs made.

It'll be strictly PTH parts - but I'll be hand-soldering them.

I guess I'll need to change solder and tip but is there any other 'real-world' advice from anyone that has made the jump?

I'm UK-based - so any suggestions for a decent brand of no-clean solder... (mmm, and maybe a new soldering iron... and...)

Thanks,

Justin
