Roman,

Are you kidding? You sure better post "everything" about
this, otherwise someone will try to patent it out from
under you.

A toaster oven usually works by direct radiation. What
temperature do you suppose the surface of the pcb gets up
to? And is this allowable, regards the specs for the chips?
And how does this compare to commercial smt cookers?
