Thanks to you Just got one, love it to pieces. nice to finally get rid of the cord, done messing around with butane I'm running a 6 amp hour m12
Thanks a lot for your review, you helped me decide to get one !
Very good demo ! I normally use the larger soldering tip unless I’m soldering onto circuit boards. Unfortunately I’ve had two failed devices in the last few months. The iron starts up , showing the battery status , then switching to green. And that’s it. It doesn’t heat up. The 152 degree / 240 volt / 15 5 thermal fuse was blown. Easy enough to replace. Cmon Ireland (the oval ball).
Tip: conical tips are bad for even heat distribution. That's why you struggle with lead free solder. Use flat or chisel tips, tin the tip and use the melted solder to transfer heat into the wire.
Thanks mate. I’ll have to give it a go. I don’t do a lot of soldering so the more info the better. 👍
Same wider tip for removing solder ?
I agree. I only use chisel tips. To add to this, I believe the term you want is to “tin” the copper.
Good Review. I have been using an Iroda Solderpro gas iron which I love. For me the iron seems a bit big for the smaller work I do out in the field. Thanks for showing real world heating examples.
Thanks mate. It is a lot larger and can be awkward. It’s mainly the convenience that helps.
i started like 4 months ago doing Av work and i was told i will soon solder some cables to terminate them into speakers. I wanted to see if the tool was worth it but i’ve seen across many videos the tool was worth it but you have to know how to use it in order to prolong the span-life of the tool
Are you saying "tint"...? Its "tinned", you tin the wire Sweet soldering iron, love the stability on the big battery base
Yeah mate, I just looked and I was saying tint. Cheers for the pickup. 👌🍻
I had one and returned it .. I use it for leds lights and it was a struggle since the tip didn’t get hot enough I would had to tap on the lower when soldering.. 😢
Great video once again, Specially like the way you test tools in a real world application gives a much more honest review
Cheers mate. I appreciate the feed back. I’m trying to give enough feedback to help out as much as I can.
Great review! Looking to buy this bad boy rather than running a lead for my 240v every time 👍
Thanks mate. I did the same. Love the convenience.
I bought one to replace my gas weller soldering iron , it’s brilliant , 6ah batteries make it stand up
A lot of bad reviews of it melting n flashing green light but not turning on
I love mine, it works super well, I am hesitant with the many users who had a melted plastic coupling, this has been a non issue for me thus far, but functionally it works fantastically and super quick
I use one , every now and then . Much safer than gas .
It’s so expensive. But I’m still gonna but one.
Rubbish old technology, way too chunky, better getting a iron with heating element in the tip and that can run off powerbank
what do mean by that ,i want to buy one ,i looking the best because electricity is not stable in my country
