What is the difference between sensor gl5516 and gl5506?

I am thinking which type of light dependent resistor photoresistor LDR is better. gl5516 or 5506 sensor? Can anyone brief the main difference?

The GL5506 has a significantly lower resistance for a given amount of light compared to the GL5516 AND, in dark conditions, the resistance of the GL5516 is significantly higher in resistance (as you would expect).

How can I pack PCBA mass product for long-distance transportation?

I purchased a batch of PCBA via FOB abroad, which means goods will have been totally mine since they are on board. So how can I pack them to avoid any possible damage on the way?

Can I use 1 and 2 ounce copper with small pitch devices?

In common, I use 2 ounce copper as rule for all my PCBs. On a recent board, I am using a 0.5mm pitch, relatively large micro, and noticed the pads aren’t very flat. Assembly went fine with the protos, but I’m wondering if 1 once copper would provide for a flatter landing service. Any advice on assembly reliability related to copper thickness for such devices?
