Weller WLSKD7012A (Home Depot) soldering station

A quick review of this off-the-shelf soldering station.

I always wanted one of those maybe now is the time.

You could always glue a brick on its bottom for the wiggle : ) that's what I did : )

Just bought the hakko 880 the Weller is better I'm probably going to return the hakko

[@fernandolouismiramontes2520]

how does this new one compare to the old one you have?

[@anthraciteenergetics5497]

The "old" one wasn't temp controlled though it worked fine until the tip fell out of it due to oxidation. This one seems to work just fine, hopefully the heater lasts a long time cause its not replaceable.

Don‘t buy the 1010 from weller! Rather the wt-1 or wt-2… seriously much better build quality and tool selection, as well as more power for your projects. If you want to get a good one I would be happy to give you some advice.
