How it works
This soldering iron heats its tip using a fast-response ceramic element powered by the included rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Select the desired head position, wait until the status LED signals readiness, then apply the heated tip directly to joints for soldering electronic components or wires. Replace tips easily as needed without tools.
