YES! Finally! My old ERSA TIP260 soldering iron isn't bad at all. I've used it for the last 15 years or so. But it is fixed at 350°C and for some SMD RGB LEDs that is way too much.

The heating element and a sensor are in the very tip. Heat up time from ambient to 400°C is 4 seconds.

The pencil is very light and the cord is flexible ;-)

Soldering the ATmega works great at 240°C with Sn60Pb40 solder. Using lower temperature keeps the tip shiny much longer compared to my old 350°C soldering iron. I like it.
