Mini TS100 soldering iron and current leakage

Hi,

The only continuity you should normally see is between the two ring contacts. The one with continuity between the rings and the body sounds faulty / dodgy (I'm not sure if anyone makes fake TS100 tips as it is a limited market).

Personally, I wouldn't use it and would contact the supplier.


P.S. The resistance of insulation always gets worse with temperature, so if it is measuring 100R at room temperature then it could be considerably worse at soldering temperature.
