If I take the bit off my Hakko, it glows pretty well in the daylight.** Hi to all,
" Does your chewing gum loose its flavour on the bed post overnight "
was THE burning question on everyone's mind back in the 1959 - courtesy
of one Lonnie Donegan. Yep - I am old just enough the
remember hearing it on AM radio.
But my question IS can YOU see any red glow from a typical
soldering iron - in the dark of course. You will need to try this
out, in a dark room, at night - after allowing a few minutes for
your eyes to adjust to the very low light level.
Would just like to know what temperature is needed to create a barely
visible, dull red glow.
So far, I reckon it is a bit less than 370 C.
