Review on Weller ST7 Conical Solder Hobbyist: Quality Precision Tool for Hobbyists by Mufti Carter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Weller TL7 1/32 " WLC100 Soldering Station Cone Tip

Yes, this review category may be in the wrong area, but only partially. This Weller TL7 tip is used for the Weller WLC100 soldering station which is sold as a hobby item not a professional item. Pro models feature detachable cables and temperature control feedback to ensure a consistent temperature. Still, this is a great, if not the best, soldering iron an electronics hobbyist can get their hands on. I bought this TL7 conical tip (thin and sharp) because I find the included TL6 chisel tip is too large and cumbersome for all traditional electronics. Work - amateur and professional. This tip works great when the temperature dial is set to "2". When soldering a lead to the ground plane, I may need to temporarily increase the scale to "3" or "4".

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • Very Expensive
