Recently I assembled 2 cmoys and some xbox mods with a 30 watt radio shack iron. So far I went through 2 tips(the tips are rated at 30watt). They just seem to melt away. Is this normal?
After soldering each joint I reclean the tip in a wet sponge and re-tin it. I dont think I'm doing anything wrong. Are radioshack irons crap or are most this way? I was looking at buying a weller but dont want to run into the same problem.
any advise?
