“Nice basic iron. Comes with a bit which is suitable for larger (Dual-in-line) components. If you are wanting to work on smaller items such as the the GPIO header then I would recommend getting a fine point (1mm or less) bit. I got the Antex XS replacement bits set from Pimorini,which provides a starter set of bits suitable for both fine work as well as basic de-soldering.
Comes with a basic stand, but would recommend getting a proper bench stand as they are so cheap.”
“Product and service from order to delivery outstanding and this immediately and without hesitation wold prompt me to use this site in the near future”
“My father gave me his old antex that he used when he studied for his electronic engineering degree. This thing is older than me (25) and still works great. I've used it for small electronics projects as well as replacing the headlight loom in my car when the old one corroded. Great for beginners and advanced users.”
