The problem with the newer Weller guns is that the trigger switch goes south pretty easily.  The gun itself holds up.  But, with a bad switch it doesn't work!

I have acquired a couple of replacement switches and those hold up for a couple of years and then go south again.  Even though I do live in a "southern state" (Texas), the switch goes much further south!  :>)

I have been using Weller since 1952 and you are 100% right Ken.  Just  like anything else, take care of it.  Learn what care it needs.
