iFixit wants to fix the soldering iron


iFixit has made a smart soldering iron to improve everyone's repair work.

The iron is joined by a 55Wh battery pack which acts as a stand and temperature control, ensuring you can fix things wherever you go. Founder Kyle Wiens explained FixHub was born of frustration with soldering irons, and their limits. You can use the iron with any USB-C power source that can output 20W, but it’ll stay set at the factory default temperature of 660f/350c.
