let alone for starters
for that price its nearly impossible to beat unless you want portability of T100
yeah T100 looked cool too but it's pricier i think
by like 10 dollars
could be wrong
and T100 still needs that PSU
compared to KSGER (if you brought the PSU model) has it built in
the mini KSGER looks cute too but i dont have a brick lying around for it
and finding correct barrel jacks is a pain i think
yeah some people suggest mini version so you avoid "firehazard" tho then they go and order chinese PSU to it....
like whats the idea
lole
average price for Yihua stations is like £30 for a 75W one and they're the oldschool type ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scvS2yeUH00 ), ksger cost me £35
knife tip and "ILS" thin cone/needle type tip
the handle is some Black one out of plastic, i think it's the slightly better one
handles most likely are just preference thing
i just dont want something excessively chunky and something that will melt
blugh
yeah you should get that from these :D
this one sucks the most ass apparently
yeah i know but he's just talking about the principle
dave even looked at a t100/t80 to my knowledge
yeah but still quite difference in prices too
Rossmann also talked about how a knockoff of a fx951 will thrash something using the old type like a Weller any day
should I have added any other tips or just use Knife and ILS for now? @Tervy
will be mostly working on electronics, small boards
thats the question you only can answer
i think ILS will be mostly in my use
I or D pretty much
id D is the straight conical one im thinkking of
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32575427569.html this is straight conical i think
ILS is thinner and and not a full cone shape
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
i can just use hakko tips too tbh
and well "T12 Tip" search on ali has tons of seller for what ever flavor you need anyway
