Title: Don't be stupid
Review: Don't be stupid... Read the copy. You will need a tip (or tips, and maybe a stand) If you can get past that little test you're home. Uses half the power to reach the same temp because the heating element slides into the tip, rather than the other way around. Much less waste heat, fewer burned boards, wires, components, fingers... Heats to temp VERY fast. small wattage makes small size, cooler handle, less fatigue. Excellent assortment of tips. I have had mine 12 years and I work it like a rented mule, by contrast a 30W Weller last me about a year. Awesome for tight work like TTY patch bays and high count multi-pin connectors. Keep your tips clean and this iron makes it easy.
