Here's my recommendations:
UGREEN 100W USB C Charger, because it can charge my Switch - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B091Z6JNX4
YKEY TS100 Soldering Iron, can be reflashed with Pinecil firmware from GitHub. - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09FKY3Q1S
GlobalWin - 16302 Snow Boots, have held up really well since 2018 with occasional wear - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GUF5V3Y
Flash firmware on a soldering iron. What a time.
Yeah and I'm not convinced a soldering iron is something everyone should have :)
?? You don't solder your own electronics? Even my late grandmother does
Still? Thatβs very impressive for a zombie.
I just turn the knob and it gets hotter. Then I turn it the knob the other way and it gets less hot. I'm not sure what other features you need.
Isn't the pinecil cheaper? Why would you get this instead of the pinecil itself?
I was wondering this myself.
When I bought it a couple of years ago, it was significantly cheaper (I forget how much).
I'm very interested to know the improvements brought forth by flashing said firmware. Anyone with a tl:dr?

Ts100 is great!
