$109.99 - $16.50 coupon = $93.50

I've had this on my warehouse watch list for a bit and noticed the clipped coupon box tonight making it the lowest price since BC (before corona). Reviews make it seems like a solid temp controlled unit so let the great debate begin about whether or not the Hakko is better!

Comparing this to the 951 is ridiculous. That's a $260 unit. I have had this Weller for a couple a years now. They had a design flaw in the iron which caused it to come apart. Weller replaced mine no questions asked with the new design and it has been working great. I don't do a lot of re-work or industrial type soldering. This is a perfect entry level soldering iron from a trusted brand that destroys the cheap crap you see out there. Quickly heats up and maintains temps. Also this is usually at $110, rarely goes on sale. Great deal.

They heat up faster and maintain their temp better, making it easier to work with things that dissipate heat quickly.
·
Old technology tips FYI. Takes about 40 seconds for tip to get to temp vs 10 seconds on newer style. Also there is an EEVBLOG video on the lack of safety features in this particular model compared to say the Hakko FX888D.

Thanks for all the help.

I decided to go TS100. Realized that SQ-001 is the newer model, so I ordered that directly from the manufacture sequremall .com

How are these for heavier soldering jobs like 12 guage wires to 5.0 bullet connectors? I have a weller soldering gun and it heats up instantly but it's heavy and awkward to use sometimes. I'm thinking ts100 too since it's been recommended so often in the RC community.

Likely pretty bad. Older style (ceramic heater inside handle, not inside tip) means the recovery time is quite bad on stuff that is good at heatsinking (thick copper wire, big connectors, etc). It might work, but it might also heat up the connector/wire way too much and melt insulation.

Hakko 936 (which, granted, is only a 60W iron so slightly worse) could not handle thick gauge wire soldering.

Got mine Saturday, after having several irons that cost half this go south I know why Weller costs a bit more, should have bought one a long time ago.

I have the Hakko FX888, and adjusting the temp is the dumbest, most counterintuitive process in the entire world.

The Weller, with it's simple up/down arrows is light-years ahead. You don't have to read the manual to figure out how to adjust the temps.
Yes the 888 works well but not sure why they don't add a couple temp up down buttons. Mine pretty much just always is at 750

I worked in an electrical sensor manufacturing facility. Every station had a Weller like this. They were left on all day every day and lasted many years.

Exactly. The worst thing is that on Hakko instead of changing the temp you might be changing the offset value, the procedure is the same. This might lead you to believe you work with one temperature shown, yet the actual temperature is now offset by a huge value, either burning everything crisp or thinking your unit is shot.

Quote from ZeeDuck :
As for the safety listing, I think Weller adequately addressed the concern. The unit is UL (and others) listed. It died because it was a 120V unit plugged into a 240V (50hz to boot) power socket. I'm not sure that is a big issue for us US based users.

I do understand the difference between the heading element in the handle (it's located just behind the tip) vs in the tip itself. My battery Hakko has the latter while my 936 is the former. The difference is less where the heating element is and more that when made together you don't have an air gap between the heater and tip.

What I was asking is why the Weller would be old tech vs the 888.

I've been very happy with my 936 so I wouldn't hesitate to suggest a similar iron but I do get that the integrated tip models are even better in terms of temp control and speed. When I'm spending my employer's money the choice is easy. When someone who is working with a $10 iron asks what to buy it's hard to suggest a $250 iron and even a $100 iron sounds like a lot. Still, I will probably give more consideration to the integrated tip models vs the 936 clones as it looks like the prices have come down a good bit.
Honestly Weller and Dave both looked bad in the video. Weller's response skipped over the key issue. Dave managed to "accidentally" hook up a 120v/60hz station to 240v/50hz. My summary would be Weller should add a fuse, Dave was probably out for clicks.
