Description

The ERSA MS 250 Soldering station comes with 2 soldering irons, a full size 25W and a pen size 6W soldering iron. After years of switching between the two by unplugging and plugging in the other, the RCA jack in the station had a broken solder joint and the station was not working reliably anymore. After fixing the broken solder joint, I decided to create this add-on that allows me to keep both soldering irons always plugged in and just switch between the active one with a switch.
