M-21B Temperature-Controlled Solder Pot, 50mm Titanium Bath, 160W

The M-21B is a compact temperature-controlled solder pot for tinning stripped wire ends and component leads in one dip, and for lifting through-hole parts off a board. On a drone bench it speeds up tinning silicone power leads, battery pigtails and motor wires before they go onto XT60 connectors or ESC pads.

Only the pot is in the box, so add solder bar or wire to fill the bath. Set the temperature well above your solder's melting point (tin-lead solder melts at about 183 °C), and work on a heat-proof surface with ventilation, since the bath stays hot long after switch-off.
