Title: Weller Electronic irons acting up Post by: K1ZJH on October 02, 2008, 07:44:16 PM Both of my E2002 electronic irons have started acting up-- erratic temps,
very erratic displays, etc. I'm thinking of wholesaling the electrolytics, since they are a tad high on the ESR meter, but figure I'd fish for other suggestions.. Pete ???

I've had a few models of the Weller soldering stations and it's always been the iron and not the electronics. I've always replaced the iron and have been on my way.

the handles is funky, but the resistance readings look good? At least I'm back to one good iron and base combo :) |
