i am having a winge about soldering irons. I have a T12-A battery one which is ok but it only lasts for about half an hour before i have to recharge it. So I bought a silverflo 938BD. it was ok for about 2 months and I got an error 5-E which was supposed to be the faulty handle, so i bought a new handle and i still get the same error message. Can anybody recommend a soldering iron that will keep going longer than 2 months…..frustrated……
What model of iron do you are looking to replace?
The below link shows the option we do list that would work with a battery or come with one.

I am sorry to say that I would not be sure on which would have a better life expectancy.
