Bert Pulitzer Textured Silver Regular
I've been using Weller soldering irons (and guns) for a very long time. It's a name I've come to trust. So, I wasn't surprised that this soldering iron came nicely finished and defect free.
In general this is an outstanding value. Here are the good points:
- The tip heats quickly and retains heat well.
- The handle stays cool and is comfortable to hold.
- The three LED lights are very effective.
- Extra tips are a nice bonus. (Although, with a Blazer GB2001 Self-Igniting Butane Micro-Torch (or similar) and some silver solder, a single tip can last a long time.
The only thing that isn't so great is the stand. Soldering iron stands server two purposes:
1) They keep the soldering iron from rolling away.
2) The help avoid the embarrassment that occurs when you lay a schematic on top of them.
The convenient triangular shape means rolling is a thing of the past and the provided stand does nothing to protect your schematics or appendages from coming to rest on the hot iron. For that I've been very happy with this Soldering Iron Holder.

It was a little nicer than I was expecting. Has a slight sheen to the coat. All in all this was a great deal!
