I replaced my XYTronic 968 with a new LF-3000 soldering iron. In this video I show the iron, how the new tips are hollow, and how the buttons and display work. So far, I'm very happy with the new iron. My 968 was still going strong after around 2 decades, so I'm expecting the new iron to perform well also. Find more stuff on smbaker.com
