This year for christmas, I got a cold-heat soldering iron. More details can be found here:
**broken link removed**
It takes 4 AA batteries which makes it a nuisance for me, because I don't solder anywhere else.
What I want to do is be able to use a DC adapter that provides 6V, and that does not damage the unit.
As for the batteries, What is the maximum current that is provided from 4 batteries in series?
Once I know that, then I could use a 6V adapter and use enough resistors to match the current. right?
The point is that I want a power adapter to function exactly the same as 4 AA alkaline batteries.
