Tbh i havent noticed a huge difference between leaded and lead free solder. A Good flux seems to make all the difference.Logo 600 3D --- Vortex Vx1n

A good flux makes for a much easier job especially on the bigger connectors, it just makes the heat and solder flow across the joint much bettersigpic
