Thank god someone other than me loves this soldering iron. I keep telling people about it but they just scream: T80! T100! And I keep shaking my head…

This is the one true answer

a friend of mine has the T12 and i was fairly impressed by it. i focused on the TS80P and TS100 because i thought they were more comparable to a butane iron due to being somewhat portable. the t12 is a decent desk iron if you dont need anything too fancy imo

The t12 is fantastic yes. I got one for myself aswell. If any of you end up getting it know that the case isnt grounded to mains earth so you will need to do some tinkering to get that done.

I can't remember, but I think that was one of the things I mentioned way back on my first post about them. There's some internal revisions.

Question. Obviously buying a portable power brick on aliexpress is Not Smart, since they're just batteries, and aliexpress is a bad place to buy batteries. So where should I go to look for a decent one, upwards of 20k MAH? My phone is ever so hungry.

The battery in my GPD MicroPC inflated a couple days ago, fingers crossed aliexpress is actually able to send me the replacement battery I ordered



I wish our gadgets still had battery lids, the forces involved when lithium batteries start to swell easily rips screws out of plastic, cracks glass and bends circuit boards

More than Star Citizen will ever be.

Costco carries Anker power banks here in Canada. I assume it's the same in the US. With their return policy it might be a good place to get something like that. If you've got a membership already.

n-thing for Anker, I also have a few Ravpower battery banks which have also been excellent, as are their usb cables.

To be fair all lithium batteries can do this under the right circumstances, it is not necessarily a design flaw (it also might be, It Depends)

Anker has a recognized name and decent enough reputation that a few years ago counterfeit Anker stuff started appearing.

Yes which is why they should design it in such a way that those circumstances don't arise (mostly over-charging or discharge).

Amazon itself is the problem with that, its policies are just turning it more and more into an overpriced Ali. I haven't trusted them with anything that matters in years

Bunch of terrible ones with the ribcage design much smaller than the hoodie that don’t look very good. There’s a rhinestone one that looks a bit better but still not great, think you might be out of luck.




I appreciate you looking, thanks

It's so strange, the company that sells it is shady as gently caress, and gets terrible reviews that lead me to believe they're reselling from Ali, but I can't find this hoody anywhere

I'm seriously thinking I'll just chance it with the shady company... 60 quid is a lot to throw away on a gamble though

Sorry to bring back solder talk, but as the KSGER T12 seems to be quite a popular recommendation I looked into it a bit more and various searches also turned up the Quicko T12, which appears very similar but is around half the price. It's only a few dollars more than the basic iron I was strongly considering, and if it is basically the same thing as the KSGER I feel as though it's a slam dunk.

Any thoughts on the Quicko T12?

All this talk has got me wanting to get a Pinecil or some other cordless soldering iron as well as a cordless hot glue gun. I might hit up AliExpress for both.

Thank you, or anyone else who can help!

No I just search keycaps, set a price range, and sort by order (the ordering is half broken, but at least it filter out something I don't want). If you browse a few pages result, you will see many vendors are selling the same sets. I buy from the high volume sellers.

Quicko T12 doesn't have the AC power integrated. Also no fuse. Looks to not include the power supply that you would need:12-16VDC 4A. Save the hassle, just buy what's been known to be good.
