Best Soldering Iron on the market.

I'm an auto electrical engineer.
I have used most gas soldering irons on the market from sealey to cheep ones to expensive ones.
This is hands down the best one I have used.
Filled it up and used it on half gas and 30 seconds in it was ready to go.
Heats up the quickest.
Used about half the gas throughout the day compared to the other ones I have.
Seen the tips are easily available for it.
It is the best one I have used and now two of my colleagues have ordered one.
I would recommend it to anyone.

From better to best!

Some 25 years ago, I bought a gas soldering iron for use in my small alarm system and intercom business.
It served me so well that even when it got old and hardly working, I kept it in my toolbox.<br>Now that I work on my motorbike, I was looking for a soldering iron that I could take out to the part of the garage where I park my iron stallion, ridding me of the need to stretch a power line all the way there.
I tried a Chinese product... Well, that was a total waste of money.
And then I saw that Portasol are still around! I didn't hesitate and looked for a product suitable for my humble use and ordered the SP-1K.... Wow!!!!
This is one magnificent product and I am so very happy I am back being a Portasol customer... Yes, I deserve it!

Excellent.

Exactly the same as my mates blue point one, I use it all the time at work on auto electrics and it's my go to soldering iron.
Fantastic bit of kit.
Thinking of getting another at this price just to put in the cupboard.
Brilliant for heat shrink aswell.

Amazing soldering iron

I cant believe I wasted so much time with electrical soldering irons. These gas ones heat up so fast and are fully portable. And this one even has the vent for shrink wrap tube. Absolutely brilliant.

It's good of course

Replacing my Gascat which I've loved for many years.
Almost identical Irons.

Can't bring myself to score 5 stars though, and it's all down to the stand !
Not only does it lower the tone of the iron's quality build... I had to mess about with it to get it to stay folded into the iron.

Portasol soldering iron

Had the Snap on version for years worked perfect but all of sudden stopped working. Snap on don’t do this one anymore so bought this one instead. Best soldering I’ve used

Its just like the snap-on one I have used for a number of years!

I bought this for one of my grandsons for Christmas as it looked much like the one I have used! when I saw and compared it other than the colour,it looks like the same makers work! and it works just the same! Very happy with it.
Many Thanks Bob
