Hi, i have 10 parts that are SOP package, i also ordered 10 converters from ebay,
Now i was looking in youtube, they use flux or a flux pen, then i see the warnings on the pen.
Hazard statements
Safety instructions
P210Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking.
P233Keep container tightly closed.
P261Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P280Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P313Get medical advice/attention.
P337If eye irritation persists: see safety data sheet.
P403Store in a well-ventilated place.
Do i really need this to solder the SOP package ?, glad its no SSOP btw ( o no, SOP packages are being faded out of production ).
What do you suggest instead ?,
i also saw these DIY flux on youtube, they mix rasin or arabic gum with alcohol.
How can they say : P210Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking.
while i have a hot soldering iron in the other hand ?
P403Store in a well-ventilated place.
Should i lay it on the roof ?, i have no real laboratory with air cleaning or i dont know what they want.
P280Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
Are you serious ?, those people in youtube dont even has that.
What can go wrong with these pens ?
I rather solder without.
You use that pen ?
thanks
