Joe, right on! Insanity.net fits it perfectly.

Subject: Re: [TN] Chinese RoHS label?

A point worth considering, Genny. (Though I largely agree with Steve
comments.) We all know that lead in not nontoxic but this is something
it shares with many other materials we use in this industry. It is all a
matter of exposure and degree.

I, for one, am of a mind that all of this legal wrangling stuff should
be canned or moved to a new forum called RoHSNet or LegalElectronicsNet
(or InsanityNet?) as there is no technical merit (and it totally lacks
humor... ;-)

At the very least such discussions should all be accompanied by NTC (no
technical content) warning.

Kind regards,
Joe

Now you're getting into a philosophy discussion.
You should go over to Leadfree forum and discuss that with John Burke,
Joe Fjelsted, and Gordon Davy.

I can't answer your question Genny, but I think the way the box was
labeled if it indeed has something to do with ROHS, just shows how
pervasive the mis-information is as far as ROHS is concerned.

I think most of us understand that all the lead-free alternative solders
are more toxic and harmful to the environment than standard tin/lead
solders are, yet there's a "Not Poison" label on the box...I just find
that interesting.

The second part of my question, though, is:  would this be referring to
EU RoHS?
Or is this just a standard sort of label that has to be put on the box
for customs?  I believe it originated in Taiwan.
I still haven't heard from the manufacturer, so I don't know how to
identify if this batch of parts is RoHS compliant.

The translation to "Non Toxic" is correct.  Direct translation of the
first character is "none or no", 2nd character is "poison".
