30 Watt 230 volt soldering iron A380-00106

Low cost iron suitable for the hobbyist and for small domestic or electrical soldering tasks. Spare bits not available so consider this a cheap throw-away item, although it will probably last for years if you use it only for the occasional repair. I recommend you make a stand using a block of wood and a wire coat hanger. Much cheaper than buying one!
