I saw it too! Only thing is, I am worried about how hot it actually gets when held long enough. I dont want it messing up some PS2 boards if you know what Im saying.

Does it use butane or electricity or what? Cordless irons arent ESD safe most of the time if it is cordless. How much does it cost? What is the benefit of a iron that can heat up fast and cool down fast? My Weller WES51 heats up to the temp I solder at in about 30 seconds and cools down in about that same amount of time.

Not sure what it uses. It comes with a carrying case and it costs the typical $19.95.

The thing about it heating up quick and cooling quick is probably so you can carry it around. The tv shows the guy solder then immediately touch the tip of the iron proving its cooled down.


Maybe CGL will shed some light on this when he gets his.

I too think it may be a hoaks but we will all know soon enough. I for one hope it is a fair one. It would be sweet if it does what they say. I look forward to testing it out thuroughly. I actually bought 2 of them. One for small jobs and one for the bigger jobs. Risky I know, but if it is indeed a successful investment, all the better. When buying a new beer, do you buy just one or do you go for the full 6 pack/12pack/case? hehehehe. If the adventure is worth the risk, GO FOR IT full steam. Thats what ole CGL always says. Crazy is as crazy does. I will let you guys know when it comes in and I throw some serious sodds at it.

I dont know about you guys, but I think I got stroked on this deal.
I am going to call them tomorrow and find out whats going on with my order. 4 to 6 weeks seems to have a new form of time measurement.
I will get back to you guys shortly on this crapiola.
