My friend got one a couple of months ago. He said he liked it. I'll
have to ask him again for a more recent and updated review, now that he's had it a few months. He said the soldering tip is actually two electrodes. And when solder is placed across these little electrodes, the solder completes the electrical circuit which therefore causes the heat buildup. Once the solder is gone, the electrical circuit is broken and you have a cold soldering tip again....relatively. That's all I know about it for now. |

Open up (cut) the soldering tip of any regular soldering gun and it will
do the same thing.I prefer the good old fashion plug em in the electric outlet kind of soldering guns.Those,As Seen On TV soldering guns,what happens when the batteries run down? cuhulin |

New batteries solve a lot of problems,now don't they? I have an
attatchment that attatches to a hand held propane tank and there is copper tip (or whatever it is made of) that fits inside the attatchment for soldering.I like to collect old things and I own quite a few old electric soldering guns and non electric soldering irons.I don't want one of those As Seen On Tv soldering guns though. cuhulin |
