Sequre D60 Soldering Iron Overview - LFC#316

Came for the soldering advice, stayed for the tips ;)

I use this soldering setup for my Airsoft survival kit, the fact that you can just plug in a spare airsoft battery and power it directly from that has saved me MANY hours!

I would also recommend getting solder wick or desolderer. You'll be glad you did.

That Sequre D60 seems pretty cool. Def a good tool to have handy if you're doing soldering now and then, like today. I just did a board swap on a cheap tablet we give our daughter. One tablet seems bricked, doesn't turn on, just the backlight. The other one the screen was cracked but board was fine. Only had to unsolder 3 wires for the battery, not too complicated. They're cheap tablets too so wasn't concerned much about screwing them up more lol. My dad, worked at NASA/KSC, taught me how to soldier, though I don't take always take the time to do it properly, but then again I'm not working supercritical equipment lol.

I have one of these in my FPV drone flight bag. It's perfect and even more ergonomic than the ts100.

Learn it my friends. Its an invaluable skill.

Got my Pinecil 6 months ago - with the TS-KU tip, it's everything I ever needed!

I totally agree upon D24, but I found TS-KU more useful. Thank you as always for the great review!

For me its the worry about burning the board and not knowing which is the best temperature to melt the solder, and the sad thing is i was taught how to solder at school in the 90s and was pretty good at it, but have completely forgotten how to do it properly now im 40, but i think i will defiantly take this advice to heart and pick up a few training kits, thank you for the video

I suggest when using a lipo to run anything, plug the balance lead into a battery capacity meter, or you will forget then let the voltage drop and ruin the cells

This is exactly what I been doing went from single PCB designs then moved up to Christmas trees then the Bluetooth speakers. What I wish I knew was the multimeter signs and types of resistors so I can tell just by looking or reading the silk screen. Bought one with link thank you now I just hope these aren't like the scam pinesil bought 2 both DOA.

Good overview. The old mains irons can still be useful, my 25W Antex is good for large diameter pins on power modules and with lead-free solder where most 40W modern irons would struggle (I also have a £400 temp-controlled 40W Weller). Horses for courses.

I luv soldering.

Those tips are all Hakko T12 tips shortened to fit that enclosure type. If you place a Hakko T12 tip inside the TS100, Pinecil and those solder irons it should work with no problem. Actually Sequre has a model that allows the usage of Both tips (they are one and the same other then length) by simply changing the internal placement of the connection and hence using Both tips.and Yes the Pinecil is indeed a game changer no doubt.

I've used mine with a big k type knife tip to desolder parts off R9 290 power planes it needed the full 24v but it works well enough.

Knife tip is pretty good for almos everything. is use mine with a laptop charger and works great.

Thanks for your videos there very informative and confidence inspiring 👍What's your take on soldering fumes?

I run all 5 of my TS100's & my Pinecil with Ralim firmware & they'll go up to 450C for really big ground planes on gaming laptops & have had no problems.

I installed new pickups in my guitar about a year ago using one of those so called "electronic shop" irons and I wish I had just bit the bullet and bought a proper one like you have would have made it so much easier

I did afew years ago and fixed my G5 dual core IMac and had 5 shorted bypass caps on pci slots and ram
