The 928D-IV is a USB-C PD/QC powered soldering iron using replaceable cartridge tips — no bulky mains base, no dedicated power supply beyond a USB-C PD charger or power bank, with a claimed 5-second heat-up.
Strengths
- +No mains base needed — runs from any USB-C PD/QC charger or power bank
- +60–65W through USB-C PD is genuinely high output for a cordless-style design
- +Cartridge tip system with real-time temperature monitoring on an auto-rotating LCD
- +In stock at kunkune
Trade-offs
- –Needs a separately owned USB-C PD/QC charger rated for enough wattage to hit full power
- –Costs more than a comparable corded pencil iron
Verdict
The right choice specifically because it drops the bulky mains base — if you already have bench space, mains power and a decent USB-C PD charger, this is a strong pick; if you don't yet own a suitable charger, factor that into the real cost.
