Soldering iron tip recommendations?
« on: March 23, 2016, 09:16:27 PM »
Can anyone recommend a good tip for soldering PCBs (not SMDs, just normal through-hole stuff...)?   I got a Hakko soldering station last year and REALLY like it.   It is really great for soldering up all my waterproof connectors' leads.   I assembled my first PCB (E1.31 bridge) a few weekends ago and found the tip provided with the soldering station to be a bit big; I am thinking I would like something more along the lines of a pencil-sized tip that is somewhat "pointy".   Your suggestions would be VERY much appreciated!!
