[QUOTE="Shyne151, post: 2349832, member: 555098"] At work I have to solder all connections... we have 4-5 of these: [URL="http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Portable+Power+Tools&pid=00954046000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Soldering+Tools+%26+Accessories&BV_UseBVCookie=Yes"]http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Portable+Power+Tools&pid=00954046000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Soldering+Tools+%26+Accessories&BV_UseBVCookie=Yes[/URL] they last for awhile, then the triggers go bad in them... i wouldn't suggest them. a couple of these old skool iron's are still around at work: [URL="http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Portable+Power+Tools&pid=00954085000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Soldering+Tools+%26+Accessories&BV_UseBVCookie=Yes"]http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Portable+Power+Tools&pid=00954085000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Soldering+Tools+%26+Accessories&BV_UseBVCookie=Yes[/URL] they are from awhile back, still work fine... just take awhile to heat up. personall this is what i've been useing since spring... one of these: [URL="http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Portable+Power+Tools&pid=00954027000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Soldering+Tools+%26+Accessories&BV_UseBVCookie=Yes"]http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Portable+Power+Tools&pid=00954027000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Soldering+Tools+%26+Accessories&BV_UseBVCookie=Yes[/URL] and one of these: [URL="http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Portable+Power+Tools&pid=00954042000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Soldering+Tools+%26+Accessories&BV_UseBVCookie=Yes"]http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?cat=Portable+Power+Tools&pid=00954042000&vertical=TOOL&subcat=Soldering+Tools+%26+Accessories&BV_UseBVCookie=Yes[/URL] it's just alot easier when doing remote starts and such, not having to wait for the gun to warm up... plus if you keep the tip clean(sponge) they work good and last a long time. For the guy asking about soldering bigger gauge wires/ring terminals I always use a heat gun and lots of solder. [/QUOTE]
