Gotta be careful with any soldering solution that uses current to melt. Current means voltage is present, and may be catastrophic for some electronic circuits.

I also have a few ideas, but I consider them to be "innovations" rather than "inventions". Innovations are, IMO, better ways to make something work using existing methods, or using something that exists in other applications.
