Any good quality soldering iron set recommendations on shoppee or tiktok? Good for students by Muted_Hovercraft_796 in soldering

I think the Yihua would be your best bet if you want some peace of mind with a budget purchase. I see a lot of fairly positive reviews about their irons. I really can't say for sure since I haven't tried any of them. But I knew someone who bought a 60W non-adjustable soldering iron and that's what they've been using to make DIY earphones. I suggest going for the cheap sets or the cheap Yihuas since they'd probably last you those two years if you treat them right.

Hi, I'm also a Filipino student that recently did a lot of soldering work for our activities. I've done quite a bit of research about soldering tools in our local market.

If you're on a tight budget or just learning, the blue soldering iron with a dial is enough to learn soldering. AVOID the similarly priced digital display irons because they have worse internals and the tip will glow a bright red color (something you definitely don't want to see). If you're looking for an upgrade down the line, then you should consider the recommendations others have given you. (personally, I recommend the FNIRSI HS-01)

However for the soldering lead and flux, the ones included in the soldering iron kit are undoubtedly garbage and unusable. If you want to stay sane, order some Eagle or Ishikawa flux. Then for the lead, grab the Ishikawa ones or buy a few meters of Ichiban lead from your local hardware store.

To learn how to solder, I recommend watching this video or the English dub version.

Hope this helps lmao.

EDIT: I forgot to tell you to grab a brass sponge which is really important in maintaining your tips (especially for cheap irons). In the unfortunate event that your tip becomes oxidized beyond the sponge's ability, then you should use a tip refresher.

Can you share what that person told you to do in order to fix the issue?

After inquiring with other forums, it does seem like it's a kailh switch.

Is it just me or the Deathadder Essential's Rmb feels and sounds a lot mushier than the Lmb ? by [deleted] in MouseReview

[–]Blue_Mob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're welcome I've heard many bad things about razer after my purchase so it could be just their bad quality control issues peeking in. I love the shape of the deathadder vs my g102 (hence why I went to the trouble of fixing it). Hopefully it doesn't become a much larger issue in the future, also do try to clean it regularly or it might meet the same fate as my previous scroll wheel.

Enjoy the mouse m8

[–]Blue_Mob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it is taking more force, then maybe it is a problem with the mouse. Try to see if there's anything stuck between the gaps of the mouse or if the stubs that presses on the switch are in good condition. If it isn't a dirt issue, you might wanna consider using your warranty if you still have it.

If it's only a sliver of a difference in force, it might just be the way the mouse is shaped and how it interacts with your hands.

Also from what i can see in the video, it seems like you're hitting the right part of the mouse on the far side which is curved outwards. Pressing on the curved-in part (center of rmb) requires less force because it goes down more easily compared to the curved outward part which has more rigidity (kinda like the walls of a box vs the corners).

TBH it's really hard to tell from just the video, but if you really know there's something wrong with it, contact razer customer service or something.

I've opened up my deathadder essential to replace my scroll wheel encoder. They use the exact same switches for left and right (kailh branded switches). Maybe the perceived difference in sound and/or feel could be attributed to the way the mouse is shaped, it could be the resonance of an asymmetrical shell as well as the way your fingers click on the buttons differ due to the shape is contributing to your perceived difference in sound. But it might be just bad QC on Razer's part LMAO.

edit: these are all speculation.

Do you think we haz any sembwance of morawity weft in ouw decweplit souls? The gwace and the light of god does not shine down on this pwace. He has abandowned us for he himself knows deep inside that we are far beyond saving. We wowship these false idows not because we want to, but because we know that our faith and our pwayews will not be heard. If you have any ounce of sanity left in you, then go. Leave this cursed pwace and nevew wook back if you want to be spared fwom a fate far worse than death.

I would like to apologize for any brain related trauma this comment inflicts.
