cheaper the better and ideally with a rope cutter attachment

thanks

I got this one as a gift a few (10?) years ago;

It’s really good – keep it on the boat where obviously no 230v supply. Has heat gun, blow torch, hot knife and soldering iron attachments. Used and abused, kept in a salty environment and still works great. Just keep a yellow can of lighter gas refill next it in storage as a charge only lasts circa 20mins.

My Aldi one is the bomb, that’s of limited help I guess.

my aldi one is superb for how much it was, how long ago…

Got through various different cheap ones.

Bought a ferm.

Not bought another for what seems like 10 years. Still in regular use*

* Automotive electrics rather than boat related

If it is just soldering (possibly not from the rope cutting comment) there are some pretty decent DC powered ones now. You can get ones that run from a USB power pack. I run mine from an 18v Makita drill battery. Really nice control with digital thermostat.

Soldering not explosions are the job spec.

I thank you!
