Heats Up to glowing iron - fotastisch - 04-07-2021 Hi, I just received my Pinecil and wanted to check its features. When I plug it in, even if set at reasonable temperatures below 200 °C, the tip starts glowing after a few seconds... Is this a known problem?

Measured temperature on the display never exceeds 40 °C even when a water drop on the tip starts boiling (tested for additional soldering tips, all show same behaviour). RE: Heats Up to glowing iron - stozi - 08-29-2021 Same problem, first use, with 65W pinepower or another QC charger, tip goes almost beyond red hot to the point I'm afraid it's going to melt. Hoping this is a software problem |
