Soldering Iron options
Soldering Iron options
Please drop some links for the soldering irons y’all use, mine is apparently lost in my parent’s attic, and thinking of, probably too large for console modding.
I figured to ask here as I believe the console modding community here would already have some good finds. I’m also wanting todo a battery mod to my GBC soon.

Pinecil is pretty great for what it is. Hakko’s always a safe bet.
I started with a Hakko, $120. It blows my mind how much better a $25 soldering iron (Pinecil V2) is. Both only have 2 buttons, but the Hakko does a terrible job with them. The Hakko also takes significantly longer to heat, which resulted in me running it really hot when I first started out.
I’m never going to be doing much beyond console modding and I travel a bit so I went Pinecil.
I saw Hakko as a great option, was just a bit much for my use case.
