TS100 or t12 ?

Both are Hakko clone T12 tips. TS100 tip is short version of T12 tip.

Highlight:
With a 6-cell lithium battery as its power supply, the mini soldering iron could reach a power of 70W. It only takes 7 seconds to heat the iron from normal temperature to 300 degrees Celsius.

The soldering tip is built in with a thermocouple with both the anode and the cathode.*

As the temperature rises, the resistance of either direction measures inconsistent. The measurement results indicate that the tail part s electrode is positive, which is consistent with the polarity of Hakko T12 tip.

Now the ohmmeter probe s short circuit resistance value is 0.42 ohm. Then the resistance value of the soldering tip, based on the measurement result, should be (8.64+8.26)/2-0.42=8.03 ohm, which is equal to that of Hakko T12 tip.

Charger rated output voltage is 19V and current 2.1A.

Re: TS100 or t12 ?

The end of the tip seems quite a way from the handle but I guess it depends on the type of work you do.
I just bought one of these that takes the T12 tips. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/EU-p...714184325.html

How do you like it...?

Re: TS100 or t12 ?

I think it's great. The handle is smaller than my old one, the tips hold their heat and I can solder things I couldn't before. The handle has a slightly soft rubber feel to it rather than hard plastic which provides some grip and is nice to hold.
The power supply is smaller than I was expecting. 120mm x 60mm x 35mm. It heats up quick.

Re: TS100 or t12 ?

i was going to get one but my budget just got fucked up and hour ago,
my hot air unit died!

so expect a review of the Kaleep 858D soon i guess, because now i have to order one on monday.
(with the money i put aside for the Bakon 950d )

Re: TS100 or t12 ?

The two solder irons I bought are for experiment. Really, I try to do is DIY. Buy the tips and use a 18650 with step up boost converter or junk AC adapter or ATmega328 power it up. Good for whom on a tight budget.

Where do you get the one that is battery powered

Re: TS100 or t12 ?

I try to use a 18650 battery power up those tips.
kinda like this guy doing, but mine will have step up converter.
