Post by: Applemacman on March 30, 2021, 09:00:57 AM

Hi,

Seeking help regarding the weller wst 82 thermo wire stripper, does anyone know if this will work with the weller WE1010 work station. If not can someone surgest a two input weller station it will work with.  Thanks

Looks like the minimum requirement is an 80W station. Weller seems to match it up with the WR2 station in their literature.

Yikes it is. That station is 300watts the thermo stripper is 80 watts so my train of thought was as long as the stations is over 80 watts its ok or is that a bad assumption

That's what Weller says, 80W is enough. Suggest you look at their catalog if you haven't.
