Customer Reviews
Currently I am working for a company where I need to do some ’serious welding on both through hole and surface mount circuits. We have two welding stations, both have temperature control and are rated for about the same temperature. The two the Digital Weller is the only one I use most. Heats up quickly and can handle the continuous welding for over an hour of work. I like the digital display, because in my case, I work with some sensitive components that can not take much more than 250 degC (480 degF) and others that I need to use high melting temperature that does not flow until it hits about 350 degC (660 degF). The tip on it lasted for a very long time, and it is nice and clean every time the pond. It can be configured to support connected to the base on both sides, or be independent. The fact that the iron is ground is pleasant for all static sensitive applications. It ‘easy to hold on and not burn my hands like my iron at home. I intend to get one of these welding stations for me to use at home soon.
I was able to use this iron in my place of work before deciding to buy one for me. I am an electronic technician trade and also do repairs and manufacture stuff in my spare time at home. For years I used a Weller 25 watt pencil iron, which probably was 20 years old and was quite happy but I felt ready for something a little ‘better. I really wasn’t sure if this iron would be able to do some ‘of my heavy duty, like splicing wires with a diameter of 12-14 because of the amount of heat required, but once you set your iron to the desired temperature will remain there, No matter what you are welding. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of heat transfer have been obtained with the tips of small size.
The pencil itself is small and light and very easy to maneuver. The cable also wont merge with intermittent contact with the tip. Reaches temperature very quickly and Réponds quickly when you adjust the temperature with the control unit.
I found a temperature of about 550 works well for the typical 60/40 solder on jobs, like the media in general, like a hot iron. I can not imagine what I would need to pay in the range of 7-800 degrees. This configuration has an adjustable temperature 350-850 degrees F. This usually iron to replace a 130 watt gun for big jobs, but overall definitely 5 stars. A pleasure to work with and seems to have done well with a feeling of quality. I’m glad I invested in this vs. getting another iron standard pencil.
If your spending so much on an iron Solderini probably knows how to take care of the tip, but its very important otherwise it oxidizes and wont be able to pay anything no matter how high the temperature you set. The manual doesn’t go into too much detail on this, but basically you want to keep the tip clean and tinned before and after each municipality.
