At $89 + $35 S&H US you can buy a nice digital Weller for about that. Always make sure you can get tips when you buy a soldering station. **broken link removed**
Sure nice gear that Hakko, but for a casual hobbyist probably overkill. I use the Weller posted above, cost me about $140 CDn and I can get tips at most electronic shops including digikey
Thanks for the input... My needs wouldn't be totally professional, but I would say one step up from the "Casual Hobbyist". I will be using it for a lot of my work, and school as well.
The tips may be harder to obtain, but I would hope the quality of them would be better than some of the cheaper units.
