Yes, two lead-free profiles plus selective solder for some through-hole
comps,
but expected to survive over twenty years in fairly harsh conditions, lots
of
thermal cycling (-45C+125C)

thanks for soothing my nerves...

by the way, our boards are shipped in sealed packages with humidity
indicators,
but then could be open on the floor for up to a day before being soldered.
Is one
day enough time to re-absorb enough moisture to cause a problem with /126?

thanks again,
Jack
