Re: Soldering gun or iron
|
Thank you, sorry about such an incomplete question and being so nooby......
limited budget, not sure about future kits, we'll see how this one goes.? I used to use a Soldering Gun a long long time ago...... I have a very low wattage iron someplace that I thought I was going to use for a small kit, though never did.......
so an iron is better that a gun...... and I will just probably get an inexpensive one on Amazon as I am also getting a cable, some new STTDA2822M's and a couple of LM7809CT to prepare for a possible bad TDA2822!

Kind of like asking what car you should buy or shovel or rifle or whatever.? We can be much more helpful if you know your goals.? Are you on a limited budget and this is the only thing you plan to ever build and need the cheapest way to just get this done or do you have so much spare cash you light Cuban cigars with $100 bills and want the best tools that will last for generations?
Personally my go to iron is a supposedly 60w adjustable pencil type iron that I keep planning to upgrade but I like it and it gets the job done.? I have this one ? that was around $15.? It isn't available anymore but there are tons of similar Chinese ones on Amazon.? While you're at it I would suggest picking up one of the copper scrubby looking tip cleaners.
