Review: Works great if you already have M12 batteries - I've recently fallen head over heels for Milwaukee's M12 line. Their M12 impacts beat the snot out of my DeWalt 18v stuff. For as long as forever, I've been dragging my 50' extension around so I can use my Hakko soldering iron. Great soldering iron but that meant that any car I'd work on would have to be within 50' of my shop. I had a job one day that required some field work. I browsed online and figured a Dremel butane soldering iron would do. Although that came highly recommended by my colleagues, it meant having to stock butane in my shop. I already have to keep track of argon, CO2, MAP, propane, acetylene and oxygen. I figured I'd give battery power a try since the rest of the M12 line hasn't let me down yet. Sprung for it and couldn't be happier. Using a Red Lithium CP 2.0 24wh battery, it heats up in 15-20 seconds from dead cold and lasted me all day. I had to install a stereo and do some wiring under the bed of one of my work trucks and it didn't skip a beat. I haven't used it with heavier gauge wire but I seldom, if ever, solder heavier wire. Some people complain about the bulkiness of the unit and it's honestly not that bad, paired with the smaller M12 battery. I haven't tried it with the heavier pack but I don't intend to either. It works well pistol-gripping it and it works just as well being used in the pencil grip. Overall, I'd buy this again if I needed another portable soldering iron. The only drawback is there's no temperature control. Zip. It's just on and off.

The milwaukee ones are expensive** A: Search for Hakko T18 tip on Amazon. **Q: Does the bare tool come with tips?** A: Yes it comes with a pointed and a flat tip **Q: How quick does it run through the smaller M12 batteries. The ones that are the circumference of the tool not the big square ones** A: With the small batteries it will go about 20 minutes continuously. It heats up super fast so it's no prob to just shut it off between wires. I just patched up a mouse chewed outboard motor wiring harness on one battery and it was in rough shape. This tool is pretty incredible. **Q: Can you use it for wood burning?** A: I don’t see why not. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great if you already have M12 batteries *by R***. on 31 March 2020* I've recently fallen head over heels for Milwaukee's M12 line.
