+1 for Kester 67/37 flux type 285 (mildly activated rosin flux classified as Type ROL0) But it's not the cheapest. I like having two thicknesses on hand. Thick - 0.7 or 0.8mm (wires / big parts) Thin - 0.3 or 0.4 mm (Small SMT) |

Felder 62/36/2. Eutectic silver bearing joy that stuff is. |

Pretty much the same solder I use daily: https://uk.farnell.com/multicore-loctite/3096525-m/solder-wire-60-40-180-deg-250g/dp/5090787 A eutectic (not 63/37 because they don't stock it..) equivalent: https://uk.farnell.com/multicore-loctite/dlmp24-250g-reel/solder-wire-lmp-0-56mm-250g/dp/419552 Truly insignificant, merely 50% more for 2% better solder. |

I'd say having a clear state transition point is worth more than 2%. :-DD |
