After I totally got metaphorically burned by a soldering kit yesterday, I’m asking for better suggestions.
What brand beginner-ish soldering kits would you recommend getting?? My goal is to purchase and assemble myself in order to ascertain if I want to teach a class using it. Or to just have fun. Or both. Cuz if I don’t have fun assembling it, there’s absolutely no way I would ever use it in a class (I’m a firm believer in soldering should be stress relieving not stress inducing).
Currently, I know that I never want another Treedix kit.
Velleman keeps popping up on my Amazon. Are they good.

On the list of Amazon things there is the Adafruit TV-B-Gone. It has a number of selling points in my opinion.
Adafruit is a fantastic, woman-owned, queer friendly, education focused company that fits the spirit of MakeICT
Once the person has assembled the project, they have something useful the next time they’re in a doctors office or other lobby that has a TV on something really annoying.
