damn you, with your scientific facts  >:(


now according to german tv i should really leave, and fill the house with concrete....just to be on the safe side  ;D

I know, I try to avoid facts if at all possible but sometimes... ;D

The assumption is that the PCB's are made from FR4, most of the ones I have seen in these applications are paper (as its cheaper!).

FR4 is epoxy/fibreglass and I don't think releases any phenol, FR2 is " a composite material made of paper impregnated with a plasticized phenol formaldehyde resin" - so the ones you've seen are more likely FR2 (containing phenol) if they're paper? ;)

Trust me, they are a compressed paper technology (I know my PCB technology VERY well and are more likely to be FR3)  :y

Incandescent lamps are still widely available, just not at any DIY store.

You mean I have to go on the black market to buy a light bulb?  :o

That sums up the UK in 2011!  ;) ;D



It would never happen if Nige held the reins Nick.... ::) ::) ;)
