After building a soldering station based on Hakko 907 tips, many viewers asked for a soldering station based on Hakko T12 tips. It took me a while but I finally did it. Enjoy!
This project is based on a project that I found on the internet. The code and schematics have been modified for my project. Credits for the original schematics and the arduino code: https://bit.ly/3axVrWY
