[Elecraft] Hakko soldering station

Dave K4TO asked:

Any opinions about the model 936 Hakko soldering station...any better 
recommendations?

--------------------------------

It's a great soldering station. I've had one for several years. I especially
like being able to adjust the temperature with a knob on the front panel.
Lots of heat output: comes up to full temperature from cold very fast and
the temp remains constant in spite of the soldering activity.

The only real competition I know of are the Wellers.  After using it for a
few years I'll take the Hakko over a Weller any day.
