- The $14 Amazon Digital Soldering iron Review. Best low $ hobby soldering iron for beginner or even a pro. A must have solder iron for those just starting out or a backup iron for the glovebox. www.buymeacoffee.com/engineer...
I used the blade for Stain Glass soldering, I am pleasantly surprised how well in took off and added solder. Great for the price.
I want to do some hobby work, snd I think this'll do the job! Thanks for the great informative videos!
I've seen people use the knife tip to cleanly cut nylon straps/cords to prevent fraying.
Knife is for drag soldering of IC chips...and some smd components.
Actually, anything that you need a blade tip...plus it puts more heat on a board etc.
Utility tip.
One important note is that the wire of the iron is important. It should bend easily and not try to go back to its packaged shape, therefore the wire won't try to move the iron when you put it to rest. That's usually the primary difference between good and cheap soldering iron. In general all irons are gonna solder.
Ya get what ya pay for
I liked your review.
I got mine just now.. from eBay. Same unit exactly except the stand was a stamped metal piece that you fold outwards the what the iron rests upon.. even worse than yours..
Anyway you may not be aware that the iron has a calibration feature where you can press both plus and minus simultaneously and this allows you to use those buttons to lift or lower the displayed temperature depending on what you measured the solder at separately..
Also by pressing plus and minus as you turn on its power it enters setup where C or F is selected.
Also it can remember the Temperature you last used it at or I think a default temp when first switched bon
A great little unit
The tip however is a loose fit over the heater core and this might make it difficult for the iron to maintain heat especially on bigger ground planes.
I'm excited to use mine butw I'm fully aware of it's less desirable qualities.
Excellent value.
Got mine on eBay.
17usd
Have you figured out a way to turn the darn thing off without unplugging it? The page on Amazon says to hold the red + button, but that only increases the temp.
@@zukiryder05 There is an upgraded model which has an on/off switch now.
An Upgraded version has an on/off switch??
Great review! I just ordered mine off amazon. I just hope it lasts! $14 seems too good to be true.
I have this soldering Iron. I solders fine. The problem I have is the heat control buttons too close to my hand when soldering and I depress the button to lower the heat.
I need to change some switches in my laptop mouse, I'm hoping this could get the job done and maybe gain a new skill.
I watched the video but realised I spent all my time staring at that fancy socket adapter that the soldering iron was plugged into.
Reflective metal is known to throw off laser temp sensors, I don't know the deep reason why, but it's mostly due to the reflective nature.
I’ll give you a deep “reason”
tips are made from steel or copper , brass ?
is the YiHua still your main?
So what wattage should we get
Do you think you should still spend more for better soldering iron(or a soldering station) than getting this?
It depends on your use case. For what you get at that price it makes a good iron for people starting out, intermittent use or a good small iron for your field repair tool kit. As a daily driver, I would step up to a soldering station.
@@engineeringgarage2993 Do you recommend if for students? Some suggest me to get a soldering station but I might want something more portable since I bring it to our Electronics class.
Yes, this would make a good portable soldering iron.
The knife is for idiots like me who don't use the proper tips 😭😂😂😂💯
You're supposed to wet the sponge with water, it wont last long otherwise
1:19 😂😂😂😂😂
Is it still working?
Yes. I don't use it very often but whenever I have, it worked as expected.
Knife blade for furniture repair...wax sticks
not a decent trick but if ur lazy that knife tip is really good at cutting plastic XD.
Also using that thermal gun with any shiny surface is probably the worse idea, use those device w/ thermistor i think it was, it directly touches the surface so you get accurate reading.
Some use of flux would have resulted in a better job.
you def cant join the army with that aim bud
7/15/2023 - This product is no longer available. Too bad.
Back in stock by searching the product model number
i just go one yesterday delivered from Amazon for $17
This model made in China and only cost 5 doller in Malaysia.
How's the cord? Is it stiff, flexible enough?
as you se is not :/ i dont think any of this cheap soldering irons have silicon cord :/ or even something soft like from vacuum cleaner
