I wonder if it is a little under estimated. The thermocouple is a considerable size and will have lost heat by conduction/radiation. White hot is...
They look a bit old to be for electronics & lead free. That said there was also lead free for use by plumbers on drinking water pipework. That is...
A green reel has lately meant lead free solder in electronics work. Some brands are almost neat tin with flux core. Some add copper or silver in...
We have taken a good year and a bit off from this subject - last post was Apr 2018. I haven't changed my mind about anything - a "dark art" as you...

Is that a 350 or a 500CP? I have a 500 and it is very very bright with a Petromax Helox mantle on it. On the downside it is also a bit noisy...
How we would all love a well equipped engineering workshop! I still reckon that Tilley principle vapourisers of any kind depend on cooling at the...
They are definitely the best hope for getting a decent vapouriser today. I think the odds of getting a good one are better than trying to punt on...
