Weller WTCPT Temperaturgesteuerte Lötstation, 60 Watt/120 V

Love this iron! This model does not have the clips at the base to attach the holder even though it specifies that it does. Its ok with me because I move the holder around anyway. The drawbacks are that it does not come with any spare tips and it has trouble with 'older' solder. If there were tips other than the pencil tip (chisel, wide, etc.) this woild be perfect.
(Yes I always add new solder to old solder first but just having a pencil tip sometimes is not enough heat).
The auto heat adjustment is awesome and I have not had any problems with the old pcb's that I mostly use this on. Even fixed a piece of my wife's jewelry.

I have been using the WTCP iron for over 40 years. I used it during my service career in the US Air Force as an Avionics Commt/Nav Tech/Instructor to teach high value soldering techniques. I also used it after I retired to repair business band radios for more than 15 years. The iron was turned on in the morning and stayed on for more than 8 hours and with regular cleaning and lasted for the above mentioned years ans probably still working well after I sold the business. I used a variety of tips and I never burned a tip or heating element. This is the reason why I bought this iron because I am sure of it's quality and workmanship.

Temperature Controlled Soldering Iron System

Well worth the price tag. The best iron for any electronics board work. No adjustments to worry about. Buy a low cost 700 degree tip and it keeps it at 700 degrees so that the solder tinning doesn't boil away every few seconds. Apply solder and more power is automatically fed into the heating element to maintain solder flow. Better than the TC (thermocouple types) because the tips cost one tenth of the price. You can have 3 or 4 tips for any purpose: 1/16 inch for fine work; 1/8 inch for normal work; etc. System is grounded to protect components from static charges.

Junk... period

I spent the money to buy this product thinking it was top of the line equipment. WRONG. It's garbage. I use this for hobby only so it's only used occasionally. It worked for a couple months, then it started to work intermittenly, and now not at all. I don't know what is wrong with it. The replacement pencil unit costs $98. a few more dollars and you can buy the thing over again. Must be the intent. Good luck finding any kind of warranty information. Don't waste your money.

The quality of this version isn't as good as my older one

I've been a Weller fan since high school. The quality of this version isn't as good as my older one. I bought 7. One had a broken strain relief. Two had plug housings(the cord on the iron) that didn't turn until I forced it.

i love this iron its reliable gets to temp in about 2-3mins, it has temp controlled tips, allows you to work fast heating components quickly lessening the risk of damaging them or lifting a trace. tips come pre tinned and can last a long time. a major shortcoming of this tool is the lack of a auto-powerdown feature so if you forget to turn it off like i did and notice it the next day you will come back to a ruined tip as the tin will burn off and will oxidize blunting the tip. not a major issue for me as i have extra tips of various sizes but most of the time i just use the one that came with it.i use this and the hakko fr-300 desoldering pump on my bench, for solder i use kester rosin core 66/44 .80mm which has a more stable melting point than the normal 60/40

I bought this iron to replace my original WTCPT that I bought back in 1996. I only replace it because I lost it while moving. It is my favorite soldering iron for the type of work I do. HOWEVER, the current production model is made in Mexico not the USA. This shouldn't really matter I guess, but the silicone cord does feel thinner than my old one. The current stand/holder for the iron is now Aluminum instead of plastic but doesn't attach to the main unit like the older generation. I guess the aluminum is an upgrade, I rarely clipped the two pieces together anyway. As to the function, it is every bit as perfect as the original. It's still the iron I prefer.

This is the ONLY type of soldering station used by OSU!

Works Great! I am an student at Oregon State University in Electrical and Computer Engineering. This is the exact model that the university uses and I got one so that I can finish projects at home and not need to spend money on gas to drive 20 miles (one way) to school to work on things or need to have more than one set of tips for soldering irons (one for school and one for home). I figured if OSU liked them enough to only have Weller WTCPT soldering stations, they had to be good, and I have not been disappointed yet! I figure the savings I will have on gas will pay for my soldering station in less than 2 years!

Love Weller stations. Have several! The balance of the pencil, to the ultra flexible cord. Makes all the rest in the price region pale by comparison.
