I’m not gonna replace the tip on that $3 POS. If it ceases to work, I’ll start using that weller right next to it in the pic.

I think I’m going to grab pic related within the next couple months. There are lots of similar stations from $60-$100 and some anon has this one and says it has been solid for him.

Ok, I figured it had to be the incredibly shitty batteries those things come with. But if somebody were to actually use those lights and replace the dead shit cells with some good Energizers, would it fry the LED’s real quick?

And idgaf about those lights, I stop by HF for $10’worth of zip ties and glue and grab a free one and I have bits of half a dozen I took apart and another 3 or 4 brand new ones hanging on my toolbox to be sacraficed or fuxed with. It’s funny to watch that company try and cut half a penny here and there over time and you can see where they switched suppliers on the same items.
