    Who uses lead solder these days? In my country it’s even illegal for normal people to buy it and businesses need a permit to buy and sell it if they can justify it.

    Normal lead free solder works great.

        Well that’s stupid. At least the insulated bottle I have (Klean Kanteen) doesn’t have lead solder.

      The fancy Stanley cups that are trendy use a lead solder bead to seal the inner chamber. When damaged it can leak into the water.
