Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ Upgraded Temperature-Adjustable Replacement for LDK Soldering by Aaron Villanueva

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Depending on the application, it would be foolish not to buy this.

I bought this set for a high school student. I repair and sell electronics. He showed interest, and from time to time I might need help. Basically it removes components from "Details" for now. I clearly didn't want to invest in anything extravagant for someone his age just in case he decides it's not for him. I am very impressed so far. I DO NOT RECOMMEND using the included "stand". It's garbage. (Anyone who solders knows this without actual confirmation). The temperature setting on it is definitely inaccurate, but what the heck do you expect for this price point? The screwdriver is rubbish too, but again, given the price. If you're someone who enjoys "tinkering" but doesn't solder every day, then this is perfect for you. If you try to teach someone like I do, that's fine. If you have soldering experience but are also broke, this is perfect for you! Storing your tips properly and turning them off when not in use will save you every penny and more. The only thing that confuses me is that there is no solder wick included in the kit. Is that a Hakko, Weller or Pace Iron? NO! But there is no price!

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
