Digital Soldering Station with Chisel Tip Pack T18-D08/D12/D24/D32/S3

Works perfect and heats up VERY fast.

Purchased primarily for circuit board and electronic equipment use. My unit came with additional tips which I recommend. When used in my radio hobby some components in kits are very close to each other. It is really nice to be able to adjust the tip temperature to ensure good solder flow without damaging adjacent components. With the right tip this unit will work well with surface mount components and fairly heavy gauge wire, such as twelve gauge. I give this unit five stars for value because, although not inexpensive, it will prove its worth in many applications and is very well constructed. Before settling for a cheaper iron, save your nickles and dimes and get this unit. You will thank yourself every time you use it.

Excellent temperature regulation. Come up to temp fast and accurate

Great tool!

Great soldering iron. If doing heavy gauge wires and you only had a cheap soldring iron, the Hakko is a must.

Never knew soldering irons were this good! Very quick to achieve stable temps and the tip assortment is very handy.

This is a great little soldering station. It heats quickly, and I really like the integral cleaning wire built into the base. I am only subtracting one star because I think the digital controls are annoying. Switching back and forth between preset mode and manual mode is not intuitive or user friendly, and in manual mode it takes many separate clicks to tweak the iron temperature. This iron would be perfect if the put back on a dial, and maybe a dedicated manual/preset mode button. Having to reboot the device and navigate a cryptic menu system to switch modes is a pain. (I have to pull out the manual whenever I want to do it!)

I just simply love it. Great product, lovely seller

Light, Agile, comfortable in the hand; You could spend substantially more $$ and not get a better setup...Im also having very good life from the tips! (I use primarily ALPHA 63/37 or KESTER 44 60/40, both .031) Highly Recommended!

Works like a charm, heats up fast. Good control. Been a blessing for my repair jobs
