Feb 9, 2011 at 0:40 comment added JoséNunoFerreira @everyone - i sounded more paranoid than what i really am...however, the manual says: (blabla) lead in the cord, (blabla) wash hands after use. Hence my concern, i wasn't planning on eating it, but i'm sure as hell not going to hold it in my mouth for a second while tweaking something. bah.

Feb 8, 2011 at 21:07 comment added user2719 It really boils down to "don't eat the solder", and you'd have to suck all of the solder out of a case of the things as an adult before you run into problems. Show a bit of common sense, don't let the baby play with it, and stop worrying. (First they took away my lawn darts, then my chemistry set, then my Radio Shack electronics experiments kit... I really don't need to be protected from everything!)
Feb 8, 2011 at 20:41 comment added mattdm In seriousness, if you're concerned, doesn't hurt anything but the pocketbook to check. And if you've got kids who might handle the thing or, in fact, eat it, it might be worth doing. leadcheck.com/products/leadcheck-products/leadcheck-swabs
Feb 8, 2011 at 20:39 comment added mattdm If it makes you feel better, there's not strong evidence of lead as a carcinogen, so you're probably clear for cancer. It's just the neurotoxicity to worry about.
