[Elecraft] Weller WTCPT tip life??

[Fred (FL)]

You might want to "tighten" the tip to iron
connection itself.  Wellers, especially those of
old - did this all the time.  A slightly resistive
poorly tightened tip connection - and one will get
50% or less heat conduction!  For me - a simple
Circuit Specialists Inc. soldering station - is
much better, and less costly.  Tips are 
reasonable.   I'm not in the soldering business,
and none of them last all that long.

Good Luck ====
