Does this kit include lead free solder?

Yes it comes with a tube of lead free solder. It was more than enough, even with quite a few practice rounds.

I do not believe that this particular version of the kit includes the soldering iron. This appears to be the 'refil' kit. If you are looking for a kit with a soldering iron, try the one from AmeriKit (Learn to Solder) [http://www.amazon.com/Elenco-AmeriKit-Learn-Solder-Kit/dp/B0009Z3JJA/ref=pd_bxgy_t_text_y].

It does say lead free on the spool I recieved. The picture is just a generic image of the product. The one I recieved was green not blue.

No idea if it contains lead...email seller. Package says it's brass...no mention of lead. It works GREAT!

I'm betting that warning is given to cover the wacko laws of the State of California. I've taken my unit apart and have seen no lead solder or any other source of lead. It could be that some odd part might have a lead ratio of one lead atom to a trillion of some other metal. Masterbuilt is a reputable company. I seriously doubt if they are going to put any product on the market with a measurable lead content. They are big on customer service and satisfaction. Buy the unit and enjoy it!

No, you have to purchase a splice kit that's designed for these since they are silicone coated. Only one end supplies your positive and negative lead wires.

I do not know if it is lead free nor do I know if it has been tested. Can't find the manual but if I do I will post the information.

Yes. You will go through tips quickly however. Lead free solder will flow at around 600 F of iron heat. I have this iron, and its fully capable of staying hot at 850 F for hours. You may find it's difficult to find information on lead free soldering online --that's because no one uses lead-free solder until they get to a commercial level where it's impossible to control it's disposal....like in toys sold to kids. Lead solder is still used for thing like auto parts and high end electronics because it's stronger and isn't going to be thrown out in the millions-of-tons by the year.

Yes. The experiments use jumper wires to connect between components. When an experiment is completed or when moving to the next experiment the jumpers are removed. No soldering involved.

As far as I know brass doesn't have lead in it. I've had and used mine for a while with no problems.

Im going to say, yes. Though I am not 100% sure I have bought 3 over the years. Just checked my tool bag I have one with solder tip and one with torch tip. I have an image in my head of the soldering iron with solder tip and the little screw on torch tip on the side. Sorry I'm not much help.

Yes. This kit contains the 93867 circuit board as well as a new spark probe. I just installed my new circuit board this past weekend and it started right up.

Mine came with an extra heating element and a multitude of pencils. If you want to buy locally, Radio Shack has everything in soldering available at a premium. Amazon has all of the same stuff at a way better price. Just search for soldering materials and you should find what you need.

Yes it's lead free. You can not find any trace of lead in this pot, because you're not cooking in the outter layer of the pot. There's an inside pot that drop inside of it and it's lead free.

No I purchased cheap solder tool at amazon and I had some difficulty to do it precisely. I just have experience at elementary school. Just one hour but I liked it and just tried in old memory. You should like it because a lot of concentration and patient. Kit has just one size but mine had 15 was broken. I ordered other size at eBay too. See YouTube samples must
