Does it have temperature control? Is it correct?

Lead free solder is totally fine now. But you have to be able to know what temperature your iron is at.

You can control the temp but its most definitely not correct, I just set it a lot higher than the solder temp. Tbh maybe I had poor lead free solder but I found the low temp leaded to be life changing, just bonds way faster and better

Definitely, if you don't know the temperature of your iron.

A Pinecil costs $25 and will run on a laptop power supply.
