Correction, I found the stamped spec on the Weller iron: it is 24V, 50W with the base having the transformer and temp regulator.

The strain relief in the handle provides the mechanical sturdiness and the wires are long enough to have no issue with some wicked up solder making them stiff as they are not required to be flexible, being embedded in the handle. I don't know the power of the Weller. Prob around 40WI first fill the pin with molten solder after lightly tinning the wire,then insert the wire into the molten bath of solder in the pin.Works like a charm.Cor Sent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE Device -------- Original message --------From: EVDL Administrator via EV <ev@lists.evdl.org> Date: 10/10/17 2:57 PM (GMT-08:00) To: Electric Vehicle Discussion List <ev@lists.evdl.org> Cc: EVDL Administrator <evp...@drmm.net> Subject: Re: [EVDL] Soldering to the J-1772 Pins On 10 Oct 2017 at 15:49, Robert Bruninga via EV wrote: > Trying to solder to the pins of an EVSE takes a hellova soldering iron. Could you crimp them with a hammer crimper, or maybe with one of those cheap Chinese hex crimpers from Harbor Fright?
