New soldering iron

[Ky. Slot Racer]

Got this at work tonight 750' 90 watt rechargeable, might just make it home with me in about 40 days...

i have one of those. Get your self another battery for it,only draw back is that it sucks the juice up at a very fast pace.

That is a nice one. I may have to look into this one. Still using the same old iron lol

Nothing wrong with "same old"..............I still have a 45+ year old Ungar 45watt in the fleet (bought a few extra tips at the time). The Ungar has been used by more slot racers, and built more chassis than any of the other irons combined

Ungars are well-balanced & just "feel good" in your hands. I got my first in 1970, now I have red, blue, & black handles. I was fortunate to find some new "old stock" tips & heaters in Utah about 15 yrs. ago. I've heard from numerous sources that the Ungar iron quality has steadily gone downhill since Weller bought them out.
