The Smart Soldering Iron works best when paired with a Portable Power Station, which allows fine control of the soldering iron's temperature and other settings.

For detailed setup instructions for the Portable Power Station, check out this guide.

However, it also works just fine with any power source capable of delivering at least 20W via USB-C PD.

Connect the end of the USB-C cable without the blue locking collar to a compatible USB-C power source.
