Weller WLC100 Soldering Station for Hobbyist and Do-It-Yourselfer


Got this for my b-day, and I love it. It has a sponge built in to the set that works well. It will heat up wires fast enough to solder in about 3-5 seconds on high. The button lights up when turned on. The thing can heat up to soldering temperatures in 30-45 seconds from being cold in a 20 degree F garage. Although, for some reason the screwdriver tip that came with mine was malformed and had some kind of fiber melted into it that must have happened during the manufacturing process. I just clipped it off, but buy different kinds of tips for this thing. (not the one in the "buy these 3 items together" thing, apparently it does not work.) If you are soldering sensitive semiconductors, buy copper alligator clips to use as heatsinks to protect the things you are soldering. this gets a 9/10.Get more detail about Weller WLC100 Soldering Station for Hobbyist and Do-It-Yourselfer.
