KSGER T12 Mod To Improve Safety That You Can Do - It's Fun!

How to mod your KSGER T12 Soldering Station. If you already have a Ksger T12 soldering station, you already know how amazing these small form factor soldering tools are. If you don't have one yet, they offer superior direct drive tip technology performance, temperature accuracy & efficiency while being affordable & durable.

T12 soldering stations are perfectly suited for the hobbyist's, DIY'ers & electronic student's workbench. They are not perfect however.

There are two main safety issues with the KSGER T12 with the V2.04 power supply in my opinion that are worthwhile addressing with an easy mod or two. Do you have to do these modifications to your Ksger T12 soldering station? Of course not. But if you want to improve the safety of your T12 station and you're not sure where to start or what's involved, this video will how you how to do these simple safety mods.

Neither KSGER T12 mod requires too much soldering skill, but you do need to be able to solder for one mod, and de-solder and use a hand drill for the other mod. Because we are working on our T12 station, we naturally can't use it while performing the modifications. You will therefor need another soldering iron or gun. I'm using my little TS100 iron for this, but any standard soldering iron will work fine.

If either of these T12 mods seem a little too daunting for your current soldering skill set, then don't do them. These are precautionary safety mods only - don't sweat the small stuff :)
