Thanks, hadn't realized LGA's, qfn's were worse. Is there a technique for doing those first few prototypes washout well, or just plan on them not being usable long? 140 degrees F is what I've been told about water washout of flux. maybe a water pik pump would survive that temperature? Else, is pouring a stream of hot water from 2 feet up good for dislodging flux under BGA's?
