LEXIVON Butane Soldering Iron Multi-Purpose Kit | Cordless Self-Igniting Adjustable Flame 7-Tip Set | Pro Grade 125-Watt Equivalent (LX-770)

Was looking into portable soldering iron with which also came a need for proper way to heatshrink like a heatgun - found butane soldering iron to be the perfect solution. This is very well built and heatsup pretty quickly.

Well built and designed. No issues with filling, as with other brands at a higher price. Quick to heat up and more choice of uses. Can't actually fault this unit, used a few in my time but this definitely ranks in the top few. Comes in a good case to keep it all together, cover can be put on for safety when still warm. Would highly recommend as a toolbox favourite.

I increased my rating to five stars from one cuz of great customer service. After I emailed the manufacturer explaining my problem, they got back to me the next day. After answering a few questions and sending a photo of the serial number, they sent a whole new unit to me and a prepaid label to return the old one. The new one works as it's supposed to, so I upped my rating to five stars. The LX-770 is a really nice torch and soldering iron for a great price. It heats up quickly and burns for a long time on a charge. The kit includes a number of useful soldering and other tips too. One thing you should know that isn't on this Amazon page: the company says only 3X-refined and higher butane should be used, not just "premium" or "high quality" gas. (You can find up to 14X butane out there; I never knew there were different kinds.) But the impurities in regular butane will cause it to not work well and will damage the torch, the company warns, so buy the 3X or higher stuff. It's a bit more expensive, but not much. My original review: This torch had so many good reviews, I really expected to love it. And I did, for the first two days. I planned to use it mostly as a soldering iron, and for two small projects I tried it on, it was great. But then today I was using it to solder some resistors and wires to LEDs. And when I was using it, or when I set it down, it just would stay lit for a short time, and then go out. I could still hear the gas flowing, but there was no flame and it got cold. It would relight, but then the same thing. This happened over and over again, so it was not a fluke. I tried pushing the lock button as far as possible. But the only way I could use it was to keep and hold the safety lever down with my thumb. Which I am not going to do long term. (I am using high-quality 5X butane.) My only choice is to return it. Although I like the design, I am reluctant to buy another Lexivon because of this experience and will probably try another brand. So disappointing!

Technich und in der Handhabung gut, funktioniert zuverlässig, mit ordentlichen Preis - Leistungsverhältnis.

I love this torch. It's perfect for 3d prints.

はんだのみならず、付属のアタッチメントを変えればエンボスヒーターにもなり非常に幅広く対応出来ます。 バーナー自体の火力もかなり強いため、アタッチメントを取り外して火力を最大にすれば、少し時間はかかりますが炭への着火も可能です。 ガスも100均で売っているライターガスボンベで充填可能なので、手軽に利用できます。 一度のガス充填でどのくらい使えるかわかりませんが、火力最小でのはんだ付けならばガスは無くなりませんでした。 最大火力で炭に火をつける作業を約7回ほど行ってもガスは残っているようなので燃費は良さそうです。 しかしながらガスの残量を見る窓が無いため、予備のガスボンベを用意しておいた方が良いかもしれません。 これくらいの作業ではんだごて出すの面倒だなって思う人にはぴったりの商品だと思います。
