Worked on a friend’s AC power adapter, the cord had gotten cut. Just a simple two-wire cord, nothing too complicated.
Didn’t do a perfect job with the heat shrink tubing, but still made good connections and it’ll be safe to use.
Wish I had upgraded my soldering iron sooner. The old one didn’t heat nearly as evenly as this one.
What kind did you get? I keep an aoyue on my desk, but one of those usb models would be nice sometimes.
At least you rememberd the heatshrink. I can’t count how many times I forgot to put it on and had to redo everything.
I picked up an X-Tronic Remarkable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B084VC47VX
I wanted something simple and lightweight with digital temperature controls. It’s pretty modest, but it suits my needs.
I’m not a soldering pro but I’m really satisfied with my pinecil. To power it, I can use the existing USB-C charger of my Lenovo Laptop.
