Disappointing soldering tool for Automotive work

This welding tool promised to deliver efficient soldering capabilities for automotive work, but it failed to deliver. The tip constantly became clogged and required constant cleaning, slowing down productivity. The only advantage was the interchangeable feature, but it wasn't enough to compensate for the tool's lackluster performance.

Pros
  • Interchangeable feature
Cons
  • Constantly clogged tip, inefficient for automotive work.

Garbage and hazard

The handle broke almost immediately. I had to glue the handle together to use it as I had the job to do. Don't put yourself in this situation. Spend a little more and buy a new Metcal solder pin or buy a used one.

Pros
  • ROHS compliant and ESD protection
Cons
  • unreliable

Could be perfect, but the port needs improvement.

Image needs updating as it is now a nut for the coax end, not a collet. Ideally, you want the cable to stay attached to the device without the cable twisting. The rotation will wear away the center pin coating and connector, resulting in an intermittent connection. (as I have in one of my devices) Here is an overview of the connections as the rest of the handle has no problems. I have 3 racquet models, the first is sp-1, the current one is sp-1 and mx -h1-av. This wears down the tips of the…

Pros
  • For use with: TMT-9000PS, STSS, MX-500, MX-5000, MX-5200
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
