Was hoping Makita might think to do this; Milwaukee was the only other company to have done this so far, who I don’t happen to already have jumped into as far as batteries/chargers are concerned. Well this helps me substantially.
Aw man they killed the link… 😮
Price? Doh!!!!! NVM….. Apparently I just need to read more……
That’s badass!
That is a great design! Exactly what I was hoping to see. Ryobi have some great ideas.
Spurious winds suggest this will be available in the US by Christmas
Home Depot is showing the price 3 cents under $80. The $60 price sounds a lot better. Who’s selling them for that price?
Hi…to me, a cordless soldering iron should be self-contained. That would limit its features, versatility, and compactness a little. But then again, my impression of what is proper comes from the fact that there hasn’t been cordless soldering stations like this before.
A cordless cord-attached soldering iron will be more slender than an all-in-one, which could result in a more comfortable or controllable user experience.
For me, I chose butane soldering iron. I use it outdoors, without electricity. I picked up a Weller for myself.

Lemme just say, I’ve ended up VERY satisfied with this Ryobi kit. Cordless soldering is particularly wonderful being a guy that does car audio, because who wants to have extension cords that you fuss with getting around to every corner of a car anyway? I’m never using a corded soldering iron again.
