Is it worth the price for a cheap spare or for soldering classes, or is it junk and not worth the trouble? (I already have a good Weller and Hakko, so this would just be a backup.)
I wouldn't. Life's too short for cheap tools. Even the company name looks like a knock-off of Aoyue, which makes very good equipment. This appears to be a knock-off of Aoyue's knock-off of the Hakko 936. A knock-off of a knock-off! ;) -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
