What does that have to do with NNRF?

It's in responce to Gibber's statement that all the lead has to be removed from the EU facilities by 2010.

What if the power industry decides it's too expensive and lobbies to get excluded?

I don't think $3-4M annually is a big deal but then I'm not buying electricity in Germany.

I worked with GE 2 yrs ago and all of them had to have to be ROSH compliant by now. So me that EU changed this law. GE would not spend millions on the conversion to no lead components. Most all of the IC guys have switched over too. I have been out of it for 2 years so please show me the relaxing of these laws.

Actually London bedgbroke oxfrod england ....Solid state logic a console and computer parts manufacturer is no longer supporting any and all lead based products that they have released or sold to the public due to a ban of lead based solder in its entirety "Recently introduced RoHS and WEEE legislation has made sourcing some components impossible and this impacts our ability to support our legacy console range"......im out there in force buying up spare parts for quite a few products manufactured overseas that the companies that made them can no longer support them. Read the following and you might understand how this will affect the world on a global level, these are but a few and many of my suppliers are now following suit to these new "rules"
