There's been enough discussion over the past couple years about "tin
whiskers" to choke a horse but...

I'm curious what the high rel, aerospace and medical people are doing as
component manufacturers transition to lead free and end up using pure
tin as a lead finish?

There will soon come a time when you can no longer buy SnPb components
and if the component manufacturers switch to pure tin as their
alternative what will we do? What are you doing?

Thanks in anticipation of some great replies,

KennyB
