I had the Circuit Specialists 976 station, that is until it literally 
went up in smoke(apparently the transistor failed in order to protect 
the fuse).  That's when I discovered that it's not transformer isolated 
from the AC line!  This may not be important to some, but it is to me.

Just bought the CSI-Station 2 from Circuit Specialists and it's a great 
little unit.  Heats fast, isolated from the line, nice slim iron and no 
trouble at all.  Even comes with a spare heater!  Temp control appears 
to work quite well, and heats fast.  All in all a great deal for $49.95. 
  Ordered several tips, and all look fine.

I'm not in any way connected with Circuit Specialists, yadda yadda 
yadda, just another satisfied customer.
