It comes with a small tip (ordered separately)for smaller jobs. One of the questions I asked today when I called to check on my order was how well it would work for small electronic jobs. Ofcourse they reassured me that it was perfect for any soldering needs and that the smaller tip I ordered is what I needed to do the small stuff. I was also told they are on back order. The person I spoke to said they got so many calls for them that they didnt have enough to go around. They are still shipping them out so it should not be much longer.
I told them they better order alot more cause if this thing does suit the electronic tech needs there are alot more interested but are waiting for my reviews on the thing. Hehehehe, I said that mostly so they would hopefully get my order out sooner.
I guess we wait a little bit longer unfortunately.
Edit: If anyone else ordered one and need to check on their order or just want to call for more info the number I called is 1-800-371-2643. I also wanted to post it here in case I need the number again LOL.
