HART 20-Volt 40-Watt Soldering Iron (Battery Not Included)

It's not a bad soldering iron, it get hot, works consistently, and not a power hog. The only complaint is that it's a little bulky or awkward to be carrying around different locations. Only because of way the holder is mounted. If there was a carrying case for it, it would go with me more often.

Works as expected and provides the necessary heat to melt solder like butter.

The HART 40 Watt Soldering Iron is a great addition to my tools and I wish it had been available when I was younger as it saves so much time and is capable of going anywhere and as long as the 20 volt battery is charged ( battery and charger sold separately ) no electricity or extension cords are needed and the iron comes with a 3 foot attached cord. To use simply attach the battery and place the iron in the holder then push the blue power button on top of the base. It has an LED light in front of the power button that flashes quickly while heating and when it is at maximum temperature the LED glows solid on. It heats up to a maximum 900 degrees quickly and the first time I used it I timed it and from blinking LED to solid LED took 1 minute and 4 seconds. When turned off the LED blinks slowly until the iron is cooled down which takes about 10 minutes then it turns off. It will also turn off automatically after ten minutes of use to prevent overheating the tip and also prevent forgetting it is on. The hart soldering iron works great and heats up enough to smoothly melt several sizes of solder and comes with a limited 3 year warranty. Replacement tips are sold separately and easily replaced with the tool-less tip change feature. Please remember to keep the iron in the holder when not in use.

excellent iron for a hobbyist. could be used for DIY, hobby, and occasional use. I have several Hart tools now, and I have been pleased with all of them. I love that you can interchange the batteries with all of their tools. In general i would have a hard time not recommending this to someone who is either serious about learning soldering or just needs a new kit that is reasonably priced to get some stuff done.

This Hart 20 volt battery operated soldering iron is just what every DIYer needs around his shop. It gets hot fast and works for an extended period with one battery. I used it for soldering backup camera wiring in my driveway. I would recommend this iron for on the go repairs of all sorts of things. Forget those wiring caps and do it the right way, permanently. It will even shrink heat warp to make your wiring jobs professional. I recommend this, even though the battery and charger does not come with it.

I love the portability of this soldering iron. It's always nice to be able to bring tools to the job, not jobs to the tools. I was installing new fog lights into our family grocery getter. It was awesome bringing the soldering iron right to the car so I could quickly solder and shrink wrap my connections.

The HART 20-Volt 40-Watt Soldering Iron is a solid tool and good value with it's modest price point. Operation is basic and straight forward with just an on/off switch and no other mechanics to worry about. An LED indicator tells you when the iron is hot enough to use, and this iron heats up very quickly. It uses a pens-style iron with a coiled pen holder, and includes a small coil of solder to use. This unit does not come with a battery, sold separately and unfortunately the HART batteries are on the pricier side for 20V lithium ion batteries, and they are proprietary to HART products, but they are interchangeable with a fairly extensive array of other tools. I would recommend this iron for anyone who needs a standard iron for occasional use that works well and is affordable.

I like that it's available. There is a big need for off-grid power tools. I'm glad that Hart is getting involved. It's the main reason I started buying Hart. Keep it up. As for the soldering iron itself, It would be nice if it had an adjustable temperature control. And, maybe later, add a higher wattage one.

Very well made cordless soldering iron. You will need a battery for it. Luckily my husband had one that fit. It worked very well for him when soldering some small projects. It seems to be very durable and should last for a long time. Highly recommend this cordless soldering iron!

Hart is great at making tools you need for your collection. I tried this amazing 40 watt soldering iron out and I have to say I am so impressed with the outcome. This soldering iron can heat up to 900 Fahrenheit and it heats up very quickly.  I would say it took about 2 minutes to heat up to be ready to use. There is a red light and when it is solid it is ready to go. I thought that was a great feature and definitely took the guess work out.. This soldering iron uses a 20 volt rechargeable battery. I love how portable it is. It is very lightweight which makes it easy to handle.  It is very compact and doesn't take much space to store it. This is great for a beginner or someone who is more advance.
