Solder Me Up – LRP Soldering Station

More articles by »
Written by: Derek Buono

Since LIPOs came to be the battery soldering hasn’t been such a big deal. No longer do you see 111 soldering irons heating up the local track and wasting electricity. But soldering is still a big part of electric racing and we feel if you’re going to have a soldering station, get one that is amazeballs (yes we are bringing back the word that just got over used a month ago). The LRP Soldering Station is impressive. We’re testing it now to see if you should get one too.
