TS100/TS101 Power Supply - 19V 2.1A Universal DC PSU

If you are one of the lucky Makers in this world who owns the incredible MiniDSO TS100 Soldering Iron, then you will have certainly fallen in love with all of the amazing features that it offers. However, if you have been operating your TS100 or TS101 with an old salvaged power supply from a laptop or similar electronics device, then you may not have been enjoying have the fantastic heat-up times that the TS100 and TS101 can actually offer.

This TS100/TS101 Power Supply is a high-power 19V 2.1A Universal DC PSU, which has been designed and stocked specifically for the TS100 Soldering Iron, and is capable of proving your TS100 or TS101 with 40W of pure power so as to allow it to heat up at incredible speeds, with an impressive 15 second heat-up time from 0°to 300°C. This is a vital improvement if you have been utilising a lower power PSU, and compared to a somewhat standard 12V 1.5A PSU (which offers a 40 second heat-up time) this PSU drastically reduces that heat-up time, allowing you to get to soldering within moments, rather than waiting almost a minute for the full 400°C.

Typical Applications for TS100/TS101 19V 2.1A Universal DC Power Supply:

Despite the fact that this TS100/TS101 19V 2.1A Universal Power Supply was designed specifically for the MiniDSO TS100 Soldering Iron or TS101, it is built to be universal, featuring a 5525 (5.5 x 2.5mm) barrel jack that caters to a wide range of electronics within the 19V range. However, the slightly odd 19V means that it can’t just be used for any projects, and is primarily used for devices and consumer electronics like laptops and LCD Displays. As such, although this is a universal power supply, there aren’t quite as many applications for this PSU as there are for the alternatives featured in our Range of Power Supplies.
