i also, should mention, that 30 years ago, american beauty units were subjected to a different scale of construction, than their soldering irons, which probably are the best massed
produced iron in the field
mel perry

the difference between all three is in the price AND construction,, the

micromark is basically and uncovered transformer (great for electrocution),
the american beauty doesn't compare with the pbl, burned out two
american beauty units, years ago, then bought a pbl 300, never looked back
and never have had a problem

Gentlemen;

I too am now looking for resistance soldering kit, but I have no experience with the quality of the three I've seen on the inter net: Micro-marks, American Beauty, and PBL. The price range from Mico mark's to the PBL's is significant.

I need all he help and guidance the group can provide in helping me choose one. Intuitively, it doesn't seem right that Micro Mark's at 170 is comparable to the PBL at 650. I may be wrong, but before making a mistake, I sure could use the group's input on the one they find the best to use and buy.

Thanks for your help  George (Marcopulos)
