I have a couple.  I like them.  Only problem is that the tip
is rather fragile and expensive.  I built a small low 
powered transmitter that used suface mount parts and soldered
it with one. No real problems.  There are three different 
tips available...at $9.95 each!  Check www.coldheat.com
(IIRC) for info.
