My curent station is fine, but its really hard to get new tips for it. (Ignoring the fact its falling apart) i am concidering the weller 1010 station, but least localy ai can't find the tips i want, but they least have them.

Pinecil seems very convinient for someone without a setup, but i am sceptical to how it is with a cable and the controlls

@Twelve @SigmaOne@toot.party
We bought some WE 1010 for our hackspace only to find out they are not compatible with the LT series of tips used by the WS-81 / WSP-80 and the choice of tips for the WE 1010 / WEP 70 is very limited. Cannot recommend it for SMD work. There's an adapter that seems like it should work but apparently only fits some older equipment, not the WEP 70.

Considering trying out a instead, though they also have several incompatible sets of tips. 🫤
Don't have any experience with the Pinecil either, sorry. It's possible somebody brought one to our last but the event has been too chaotic for me to interact with them and learn about it.

We will be getting a WE 1010 for work next week hopefully so can test it a bit there. At work we don't do smd work, but at home I will.

Hakko I not really concidered as its hard to find them where I live.
