This kit gives you everything you need to get started on your soldering journey – The ST-2065D is a 65 watt temperature controlled soldering iron which is the perfect choice for those who will mainly solder track or wiring around the layout as there is no “base station” to accidentally pull off the layout top!
ST-2065D has more than enough power to keep your solder joints quick and cool, it is light and nice to hold in the hand and has excellent temperature control. The ST2065 has some excellent features including “Auto-Sleep” after ten minutes to save your tips and “Auto-Off” after 20 minutes to keep YOU safe. Our testing showed it has fast turn-on heating and very good heat recovery for larger things too.
Construction is top quality with a ceramic heater element, and all this plus its high reliability gave it our “Stamp of approval” – in fact we now use it ourselves for all DCCconcepts layout work. The ST-2065D uses standard Hakko-type tips that are freely available. Because we know the importance of using the right tip, The ST-2065D is supplied with TWO of them so you already have a spare!
