| 1372352 | 2014-04-09 22:39:00 | Some irons come with tips that are far too small/thin, you need a bigger 'chisel' shape tip that retains the heat for soldering connectors. An old ashtray with a $2 goldylocks (steel wool) inside it makes a excellent tip cleaner. Jaycar sells these tip cleaners ready 2 go. Buy a roll of solder, not just $10 worth of solder. Ive a Hakko as well. Excellent investment. I also have had a few of the $40 irons, some literally didnt get hot enough to melt the solder, even the big 90W+ cheapies. Also avoid the cheap Hobbyking/ebay clones www.youtube.com |
