#52 - ANSAI/BOZAN 946C+ - 800W Electronic Hot Plate Review and soldering experiment 👀

Things get a little experimental as I try soldering just with the hot plate itself. Results are "surprising" 😉. The video is longer due to some real-time sections of testing. Errata: Yes, I know I get the emissivity "through the roof" around the wrong way, I guess it should be "through the floor". Just in case you feel the need to "reeeeeeeee". 15:42 - Rotary not, Rotory, Doh!
