    What will you use it for? Soldering coils and switches? I like a soldering gun for field repairs. They’re cheap, very reliable and get hot as fast as a butane iron. Field board repairs? I take a Weller soldering station. Butane irons are not very durable when being banged around in a tool bag. If I were going to buy another, I’d get a Master Appliance. I used that when I was a young man doing high end pro audio installs. They have the best temp regulator of all the butane irons. The MA probably costs double of a weller pyropen but it’s a noticeable difference.
