Hmmmm. I see Metcal. Are they
really that much better then anything
else? 
Currently I am thinking about purchasing an Oki
MFR-2241. The Oki
is not that expensive as a Metcal, but uses the same Smart Heat
technology that Oki got from Metcal.
I've not tried (or even seen) those. The "Smart Heat" stuff is half
of the battle, the tip plating is the other critical part. If they
don't skimp there, I'd say it'll probably do well. If you end up
getting one, I'd appreciate knowing what you think of it.
