I think I shall go with the MPJA soldering station, even though I don't really like to part with my money, but if I take really good care of it (which I do with everything I have), it will last for a very long time. I wil also get the larger tip.
BTW, what wire do you guys use? I use Wet Noodle, but it a little spendy, and its somewhat hard to work with, plus you only get 2' of it. I see alot of times in RCCA they use some kinda blue wire, which is thinner, and it is on a roll.
Do you know what I am talking about? Any ideas for wires would be helpful...
