Gold plating ?

Post by **exxos** » Thu Sep 10, 2020 11:50 am

I can get these boards goldplated for about £2 extra per board...

Do people prefer that or just stick with the normal tin plating ?

I vote for gold, but it's not a strong preference.

Soldering the remaining SMT parts, allegedly, should be easier with goldplating as well..

Definitely £2 for the bling!

Can't go wrong with gold plated (unless it's gold coloured plastic from China

)
