amiciTools Soldering Iron with Adjustable Temperatures 60W

👍

The product is very good. The only problem I faced was, the bits get worn off very soon.But seller immediately responded to my concern and replaced the bits.(Leaving 5 star instead of 4 stars, since I got the support immediately from the seller)Pros:Temperature adjustable. - The main reason to leave high stars at this price point.(Controlling the temperature is very much necessary to avoid damaging the components and maintain heat flow based on the solder lead/tin ratio.)Easy to change the bits. - Looks easy and durable compared to normal solder irons.(The screw type fitment is very ingenious to change the bit at ease )Different types bits are available - at-least 10-20 varieties are available compared to normal solder iron.(I have two types of pointed tips, round tip, flat head tip and wedge tip to solder/desolder at ease and for multiple use cases)(I can do it now more professionally and neatly depending on the use cases and methodology)Cons.The bits may wear off very soon - I see the solder tip gets worn - off in few usagesI need to try some good quality tips e.g. HAKKO) - "This is the main draw back" -I request the seller to improve on it, by providing an alternate bit. (Actually, this is a copy of Hakko solder iron by some Chinese manufacturer named the product as "Yarboly")The bits are costlier compared to normal solder iron bits/tips. -Tip may range from Rs 150 to 500(at least 10times costlier compared to normal solder tips).

Superb product . Gets heaten very fast . Temperature settings are the best . (450°C max ) . The only bad thing is that it doesn't come with any extra stuff like bits, tweezers, etc.

Soldering tip that came with the product isn't durable enough, it kinda shrinked itself in and before I know it the tip ate itself in. Weird right? Well anyone's buying it then see it for yourself lol.

I've used ameciTools solders before and they're really good. But this one is simply not giving 60w, that makes it useless for my job. Even the best solder hardly melts completely.

This soldering iron feels more delicate and smaller than I was expecting but works as advertised.Its well made and the heating is pretty fast and focused on the tip. There is a power indicator on the barrel.All the tips are made of chrome plated copper and hence some people are complaining about quick corrosion of the tips. Copper is a much better conductor of heat and it is far better than iron tipped equipment which does not conduct heat as well though it lasts longer. The joints on PCBs made by copper tipped soldering irons are much better. And because its copper, tinning takes a fraction of a second each time a joint needs to be heated with common 60/40 solder.The two core cable is thicker than usual so that's another plus point.For those that care, this is a TRIAC based device (similar to electronic fan regulators and light dimmers) which controls the heating element temperature by regulating the current to it.The packing was not done well. Everything was just put in a generic plastic bag and put inside an Amazon soft courier bag. Luckily everything survived.Bottom line, its a good product for occasional users who know what they are doing especially in electronics and can appreciate copper tipped soldering iron instead of iron tipped. This is a much better alternate than lugging around and setting up a full soldering station for one or two quick joints.
