Can anyone with a Weller confirm this for me?Looking at the Portasol units, they can be had fairly well priced on fleabay, like this one- http://www.ebay.com/itm/Portasol-SP1-K-Super-Pro-125-Cordless-Soldering-Kit-w-7-Tips-010589330-NEW-/400620654870?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5d46da1116Landed for around a hundred bucks.
