Weller D650 High-Performance Industrial Soldering Gun Review

I agree with an asterisk indicating this soldering iron is mislabeled and does not produce 200 or 300 watts of power. My digital wattmeter shows 146 watts at low power and 189 watts at high power. And as far as I know, the trigger switch is wired in reverse: full trigger should give more force, but it's wired so a half trigger position gives more force and a full trigger position gives less force. Energy. Both lamps 222 operate normally. Nevertheless, it is an efficient soldering iron even with

Used version with lower performance for over 45 years. I changed the spark plug 30 years ago. The lightbulb burned out 35 years ago and has never been replaced. Still works. The nozzles were changed about 25 times. This model is the most powerful, but is not included in the kit. For protection during transport, only the gun and the hard cardboard tube around the handpiece and electrodes. The latest version has a three-pronged grounding plug. This is their idea of innovation. I still use two…
