Hi does anyone here use the Cold Heat Soldering tool that uses battery? just wondering if its really as good as advertised...I haven't soldered anything since highschool...so I am thinking of getting a simple setup for mods...

I had one... I didn't think it worked that well. The tip broke right away too... and those are $10 to replace. I'm sticking to the regular pencils.

I don't think it's worth it.

for general use, they're ok. for precision stuff, don't bother.

Mirco rc stuff, you'll be happier with a nice pencil iron, preferably with temp control.

I realize this is your first post Sentry. This thread is more than 4 months old by now and the thread starter got the information he needed to answer his question.

It's not a huge deal, but we don't like old threads being bumped, so please let them be. I'm locking this down.
