Don't bother... Weller stuff is junk... that's why you're trying to

Do yourself a favor and try one of these...http://www.hexaconelectric.com/thermo.html
They ain't cheap... but man do they last.

Weller makes junk better than your junk by maybe 40-50 dB.
Thanks for your unsolicited opinion.

Harold, I have no affiliation with Hexacon... or do I sell their
equipment. However, we do use their equipment... and it has proven to
be much more reliable than Weller stuff. I guess you get what you pay
for. Not surprising I guess.
