if you know how to solder and read the directions you wouldn't have the issues mentioned so far. I've had NO problems with mine.

yeah, I hate those things, not good for anything other than small solder jobs maybe, not worth it imo

P.O.S. ! I've been doing electronics and soldering for 30+ years and that is the biggest piece of crap!

I got one for Christmas too and went through the first tip in the first day!

I forgot exactly but I know the replacement tips are like 5 or 10 bucks!

I'd go with a rechargable type or butane rather than that one.

When the user images show a dude overclocking a vibrator, it can't be a good sign. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif

I hate that piece of shit soooo much. I used it once for a couple of LEDs but since it uses a high voltage arc to create heat its super dangerous to use on a circuit because it literally powers it up when it makes contact.

Everything turned out alright but one of the leds powered on superbright, and EXPLODED because of the voltage going through it from the tool.

Stick with the d@mn 7 dollar heat soldering irons imho. My coldheat is sitting on my shelf forever now.
