A Dangerous STM32 T12 Soldering Iron - Ground Bond Upgrade!

We got a STM32 T12 Soldering Station from Amazon… and found a nasty surprise: no Ground Bond to the metal enclosure! This means our lovely aluminum enclosure is now a verified accident waiting to happen… so let’s fix that. Bonus points: we’ll also be taking the safety of this device up a notch.

If you already have one of these stations, I’d recommend that you toss it straight in the garbage… But if you’re not going to throw it away, I’d highly recommend you follow what we did to increase the safety of this product considerably! These modifications do not cause the product to comply with the relevant safety regulations, and therefore should still be considered dangerous until it passes testing performed by an authorized safety agency.
