Yup this is my second one. The first was stolen a few years ago only got round to replacing it now. Have been using a cheapy 220v iron but the lead free solder and more delicate work requires this baby.@Gazzacpt Magnum soldering irons are epic. Love my one. like 4 years old already and going strong. Used to use it daily when i was still doing a lot of electronics. Now I'm too bloody lazy. But will never part with it
