Trickbits 12V soldering iron
I need a new tip for mine - TB0318 (the 8mm tip).
Anyone carry Trickbits parts here in the UK or have I got to order direct from Horizon Hobby?

Anyone? Or can you suggest a cheap powerful 12V iron as a replacement? The Trickbits one is 35W and is fine for doing most soldering jobs including NiMh cells - but it can struggle outside if it's windy
 The Trickbits one is so useful though - heats up really quickly which is handy when someone's broken a wire on their warm up lap.

See your local hobby shop and ask him to order some off of Horizon hobby for you

I'd looked at the Horizon website - I was just hoping someone might know if there was a UK stockist. Can't see my local shop willing to put in a US order until there was a sizeable value - not just one iron tip.
