Thanks Everyone

Like I said, it sounded a bit too good to be true!

Hi Greg,
There have been some reports indicating some creep-fatigue advantage for
SN62 
over near-eutectic SnPb in accelerated testing; others showing none. In
any 
case, even the studies showing some superiority for SN62 indicate only a
slight 
improvement of little significance. However, SN62 is somewhat stronger
than 
near-eutectic SnPb and creeps slower-thus, whether even this slight
superiority 
in accelerated testing translates to anything at all for product
reliability 
is rather doubtful.

Werner
