I have a similar device that I picked up at a Radio Shack many moons ago, it's pretty handy if you need to solder something where using a electric iron can be tricky, for example, ham radio antenna connections up on the roof, in the trunk of the car, etc. Places where a cord would be anything from an annoyance to near impossible. I agree with the rest of the comments, wouldn't use it on a PC board.

>Since we hand solder outside of the normal manufacturing floor, our technicians are requesting to use a butane soldering iron. I have no previous experience with this type of soldering iron. With a temperature setting of 1076�F it seems rather high and potentially damaging to resulting solder connection, insulation, people, etc.
