Thanko’s USB soldering iron is perfect for all of you DIYers, whether you are creating the next great console mod or building a robot from scratch. It’s a portable soldering iron powered by USB or by a 9 volt battery. I don’t have to tell you how convenient it is having a soldering iron that is portable and doesn’t plug into an outlet.

With the USB plug, it will heat up to 200 ℃, or 300 ℃ using both USB plugs. Then 500 ℃ if you use the 9 volt battery. There’s even a handy light built-in. It will only cost you $28, and will be available in Thanko’s English store very soon.
