WRONG. You do have to change the tip on the Magnetrol type Weller
stations, of which the WTCPT is one, that's the beauty of it - no
nimrod technicians cranking a variable control up to 900 degrees and
lifting pads. I was just in fry's today buying two tips for my own
beloved WTCPT, a 700 degree fine point tip and an 800 degree flat tip.

wins,
hands down...In my working days, over 40 years of soldering, I used
Wellers,
Paces, Edsyns, you name it, the Weller WTCP is my first choice...And,

MADE IN THE USA!!!...
