My Weller Soldering Station Review

I bought this station to replace a pen type iron that was on its last leg. I was looking for temperature control and ESD safe, but wanted enough power for larger projects. This delivered a full 70 watts, with an ergonomic handle for less hand fatigue, and in addition, enabled more precision control.

The temperature has two ranges inFahrenheit and Celsius, while ranging from 200 to 850 °F, or 100 to 450 °C. A large number LCDdisplay is easy to read, while being responsive to quick temperature changes. I found it simple to use with up and down buttons for temperature adjustments.

It heated up at an impressively fast speed and has a basic manu, in addition to, changable tips for different jobs. I would have liked a backlit screen or LED showing it is on, but it is just a pet peave of mine. The computer style plug in power cord is nice, because it allows for changes in case of damage.

This makes a great companion to my heated tweezers and lets me handle all the work that I get. It performed well, and was comfortable enough to use everyday. I would buy another one.
