Solder-It Silver Bearing Solder Paste??
Anybody ever heard or used this stuff? Found it at Princess Auto last night and picked up a tube. It's a paste and i believe has flux mixed into it......supposed to have "superior conductivity" and have 5 times the strength of a normal solder. You basically squeeze the paste onto your area to be soldered and just heat it up with a lighter and it hardens. I tried it out last night and definitely gave me a sturdy silver looking soldered joint. I'm just wondering if it's as good conductivity wise as they say it is.
I suck at soldering (need more practice), and this stuff seems to be an easier method. Although I know shortcuts usually don't end up working as well as they were intended.

Even noticed Lowe's sells the stuff. My main concern is if it holds up to high current rc applications?
