I'm currently using a [[http://www.miniware.com.cn/product/ts100-soldering-iron-package-electric-soldering-kit/|Miniware TS100]] for soldering components. It's really affordable, fully programmable and works really well. You can even flash it with [[https://github.com/Ralim/ts100|custom firmware]]. So far I'm really enthusiastic about this little device, heats up quickly and works smoothly. I can recommend getting it together with an extra [[http://www.miniware.com.cn/product/ts100-soldering-iron-bc2-tip-best-soldering-station/|BC2]] tip. Bought mine on [[https://www.banggood.com/nl/MINI-TS100-Digital-OLED-Programmable-Interface-DC-5525-Soldering-Iron-Station-Built-in-STM32-Chip-p-984214.html|Banggood]]. | The [[http://www.miniware.com.cn/product/ts100-soldering-iron-package-electric-soldering-kit/|Miniware TS100]] is really affordable, fully programmable and works really well.

==== Cables and connectors ==== | At the moment I'm mostly using a [[https://www.hakko.com/english/products/hakko_fx888d.html|Hakko FX-888D]]. The Blue with yellow one of course because that is how the original designer conceived it. I prefer this one to the TS100 because it has better grip. |
For cables and connectors I'm currently using a [[https://www.velleman.eu/products/view/?id=346033|Velleman VTSS5]]. Cheap unit but does the trick. Also very easy to get parts for. | |

| ==== Cables and connectors ==== |
| For cables and connectors I'm now using the Hakko too. When I need even more power I've got a Velleman VTSI80. |
