Sir Pexy . . . . . . .
Thinking more about it . . . . I was considering a full fledged bona-fide soldering station on that Triac utilization.
You might merely have a controlled temperature soldering iron only, built much in the order of the one that I have shown below.
That schematic mighty be it exactly . . . . . or being close enough to work with in making cross analysis.
My first dealing with that compact of a system / iron was with the Edsyn Loner unit, which I have shown also.
That design dates back to the 70's and I still have two of them. The very special and pricey tips were
quite problematic, until I slightly cut off the originals eroded very ends and tapped them in order to accept
a 1/8 in threaded tiplet which I made 10 at a time from copper wire and then quench tempered them to harden.
Those tiplets were then being clones of the old UNGER tiplets of the '50's. No more problems, whatsoever.
If you now want to contribute to help others . . .drop the thermistor from circuit connection and feed back the
ambient room temperature resistance of that thermistor.
That is about all that is not on the schematic . . . unless you also supply us the stone cold resistance of the
heater element.
