Has no one here heard of the ELV? Certain exemptions apply for certain applications.They will be reviewed by the EU,and may or may not be removed,or extended. -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Stadem, Richard Sent: Monday, July 25, 2005 2:57 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [TN] Lead free in automotive What is the rationale behind that? Automotive electronics are as consumable as Sony CD players, and they all end up in a landfill, along with the lead batteries and all of the lead solder in the wire harnesses, etc. So how come they are exempt? One more bit of madness with this whole lead-free thing. -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Judy Brown Sent: Monday, July 25, 2005 3:35 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [TN] Lead free in automotive Automotive is exempt. -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Lance Mayes Sent: Monday, July 25, 2005 1:21 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] Lead free in automotive Good afternoon Technetter's; Can anyone tell me how this "lead free fiasco" is going to affect the automotive industry?
