The milwaukee ones are expensive** A: Search for Hakko T18 tip on Amazon. **Q: Does the bare tool come with tips?** A: Yes it comes with a pointed and a flat tip **Q: How quick does it run through the smaller M12 batteries. The ones that are the circumference of the tool not the big square ones** A: With the small batteries it will go about 20 minutes continuously. It heats up super fast so it's no prob to just shut it off between wires. I just patched up a mouse chewed outboard motor wiring harness on one battery and it was in rough shape. This tool is pretty incredible. **Q: Can you use it for wood burning?** A: I don’t see why not. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by H***R on 7 November 2025* Ist sofort heiß ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***. on 1 March 2025* Exelente para trabajos en autos, sobre todo con espacios reducidos ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by T***N on 15 April 2025* By far the best battery powered soldering iron I’ve gotten it’s a little bit pricey if your not already using the M12 battery platform however the aftermarket batteries have worked just fine across all the Milwaukee m12 tools I’ve used it gets really nice and hot I have other models of battery powered soldering irons, most of which tend to be excellent for a little circuit board repairs or thin wires or inside on electronics, but especially in winter and adverse conditions things like the frog bro tend to crack at the slaughter joint between the board and where the socket for the tip screws into I had to repair mine already a few times and it’s past the point of no repair at this point, the fanttik is an excellent soldering iron but nowhere near enough heat to reasonably solder, larger cables, especially on like windy days and that kind of thing this I was tinning a wire together that was shockingly thick in no time it’s not so much just the heat as it is just the way the heat goes through it. It’s also really nice that you can set it on the on a table aimed at a 90° angle and as you go or I like it on the middle position 45° angle it’s straight up and it’s not 90°. It’s the middle setting and then just hold it. It takes some modification of whatyou know traditional or the norm I guess but even still it’s a fairly small adaptation to make all things considered, and it is a. Perfectly reliable whether or not it’s gonna have issues in the long run or in time to come yet to be seen. I know there’s been some issues with them in the past whether or not this one or not I don’t know luckily Milwaukee seems to have a pretty solid warranty And professional tool that you may not be using every day. It’s not my Weller auto correcting unit that was like $600 that was issued to me at work. It’s not gonna last 12 hours Monday through Friday for decades. That’s not what it’s made for but for routine wiring jobs to the average hobbies or even mechanic. I can’t see any problem with it it heats and absolute record time it cheers a battery platform with amazing tools. You had the hammer drill the 3453 impact driver and the rover work light and all of a sudden you have one capable tool set the Hackzall and a 90° die grinder and I think you’d be unstoppable. This soldering iron was the driving force in my adaptation to the 12 V world and I am legitimately impressive. Every single tool of these that I grab they’re small or compact the lightweight the relative relatively cost-effective the readily available what more could you really expect or want but that’s just one man’s opinion and the fact are so reasonably priced and the cost of batteries are so decent for dealing with the aftermarket things like the nine amp high output batteries it’s a really really easy to get a two battery. And charge as a kit aftermarket of course for pennies essentially get too high output, batteries and a charger for what one regular issue battery would cost new. The other option is to spend $30 or so on an adaptor to allow you to use or 18 V Milwaukee batteries they do actually regulate voltage to 11.4 V constant so instead of ramping down to 10.8 your average 12 V battery does it get that extra almost full route which doesn’t seem like a lot but it’s enough to make a make a noticeable difference with the higher output tools, and it seems to last forever with the one plugged in adaptor there’s no rhyme or reason to leave when I first got the battery plugged in the adaptor into the tool for almost 2 weeks using it periodically not a single problem and then one day I had taken the battery out for some reason and put it back in. I tested it for voltage actually and it was marking 18 V something like that that’s a 20 V max Dewalt style aftermarket battery rated for 5 A however the next day it was stone dead there was something happen after disconnecting seems to triggered something didn’t agree with it and ended up just draining. It was nothing major, but it’s something to be conscious of. I don’t necessarily recommend that, but it is a valuable solution, especially if you have used tools I would just periodically check with a multimeter to make sure that it’s still reducing voltage and I would also go out of my way to make sure it’s disconnected, but as long as those two criteria are being met to can handle 11.4 V continuous it’s made to handle 12 V and technically be over 12 so warranty that you’re taking guarantee their product going to work with their architect giving it a try that you might have used just to see most of my to can handle 11.4 V continuous it’s made to handle 12 V and technically be over 12 so warranty that you’re taking guarantee their product going to work with their architect giving it a try that you might have used just to see most of my M12 stuff is in my shop but there’s a few things that I keep in my house so I keep a battery for each tool and then in the house instead of having extra batteries I have the adaptor that goes a long way the one that I have will do either 20v max Dewalt style or 18v Milwaukee M18 style batteries and I have an adapter that allows me to use Bosch 18v core batteries in 20v max Dewalt style tools and I’ve tested it as well and I can tell you with certainty that you can use the voltage regulating adaptor for the M12 tools with an secondary adapter, allowing the use of basically a third because the way those adaptors were made it still take one or the other you can interchange between the DeWalt and Milwaukee so any adaptor that will fit a Milwaukee or a DeWalt style tool with a different type of bed or whether that’s Porter cable craftsman, etc.can be plugged in just the same temperature constant voltage I wouldn’t do it with high draw high demand tools so as grinders, but for your average impact or drill, potentially dis soldering iron I can’t see it being super high demand. I haven’t had it long enough to really know I’m actually quite new to this platform. Honestly all I know is that in the span of a month or two was managed to acquire this soldering iron and drill and impact the hackzall a screw gun. And rover work light the only tool platform I have even close to this much is Bosch 18v I have the hammer drill 1/2” square drive 1/4” hex impact tool “the freak” as it’s called and one of the X lock angle grinders and I’m more than happy with my 12V tools that’s for sure ## Frequently Bought Together - M12 Soldering Iron (Bare Tool) - MAIYUM 63-37 Tin Lead Rosin Core Solder Wire for Electrical Soldering (0.8mm 50g) - Akozon Car Soldering Pliers, Metal Soldering Plier Multi-Function Wire Welding Clamp Pick‑Up Aid Tool Wire Welding Pliers For Automobile Maintenance Repairing Tool --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/547186121-m12-soldering-iron-bare-tool](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/547186121-m12-soldering-iron-bare-tool) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
