Professional Wood Burning Kit, TEKCHIC Pro1 Wood Burners for Wood Burning Pyrography with 20 Wire Nibs Tips Including Ball Tips

This was precisely what I wanted and it was less expensive than most so I ordered it. Then I dug deeper into the reviews and wondered if I had made a mistake. Fortunately, the unit I got performs flawlessly so far. 60w is plenty of power since this thing gets so hot it can burn a hole in the wood. The temperature dial has been consistent and easy to control. The pens are comfortable to use unless you crank up the heat too high, then they get a little warm. It heats up quickly and recovers quickly as you burn so it's easy to find a temperature where you can pace yourself for a controlled burn with consistent shading. There is a nice selection of nibs and they can be bent fairly easily if desired. I've really been enjoying this pyrography kit. If it proves to be more reliable than some of the other reviews suggest I will consider it a great buy. It really is fun to use!

I had thought the unit was dead out of the box. No display and neither pen got hot. Started to pack the unit back up to send back and noticed the power switch on the side of the unit. I think some instructions would have been nice.So after finally finding the power switch, unit works great. Fast to heat up and cool down. Great unit for the beginner who doesn't want to spend a lot. Also better than a solid point burner.

Love that I have two separate controls that quickly heat up, do wish that the handle had a bit more protection against heat than it does but it’s definitely good other than that. The tips are easy to install, do get hot quickly and they can and will bend but that’s the same with most. Good price and good quality. Just wish a little better insulated on handles to protect fingers from the heat in the tool

READ ENTIRE REVIEW!! Worked well. Until it didn’t. Used infrequently as a hobby. Definitely not heavy use. I Was mid burn and it stopped working. The ground had come loose inside. Got it soldered. Worked for about 2 minutes.Lasted a little more than a year. I do like the dual pen and tips.Edit: I contacted the company and they said they would mail me out a replacement. I am awaiting the new machine. Once I actually receive it I will update to five stars for their customer service and backing their products.EDIT2: I received my replacement kit in the mail today. I am very Impressed with the customer service and them standing behind their products. I will definitely continue to purchase this brand because I really do like the machine and the customer service went above and beyond!

I bought this back in late Jan with very little experience with wood burning (a cheap home depot wood burn pen) and the difference is well worth the money. The temp control, variety of pins and the grips have allowed me to accomplish a number of projects in great detail and satisfaction. I would recommend this to anyone interested in wood burning.I did run into a snafu a few weeks after use. The pens stopped heating up and aside from ripping a part the pens, I tried everything reasonable to troubleshoot the issue. My hunch is that the wires may have gotten too hot for too long and caused some damage. I reached out to the supplier and she was able to ship out a new unit with me returning the old one within a week. It has been a couple of months and no signs of irregularities.The product is great, the hobby is soothing and the supplier stands by their product with customer satisfaction in mind.

This is a great kit! It comes with a lot of different tips and the case is great for keeping everything in once spot. The temperature control is easy to use and helps if you want darker or lighter shades. I really like that you can have both pens plugged in at the same time, just flipping the switch to change which one is heating up.The holders are really good too, put your tips in the little trays and slide the pens in to keep them secure and away from your workpiece while they cool down. For lines I used it around 71/73 and a little lower for any shading. For shading, it helps if you blow on the tip right before you touch the wood so it doesn’t scorch it right awayI definitely recommend this one! If you want to do more than few lines then this is a great kit to get

The unit slowly lost power over several days. When it worked, pens get hot to hold for long because they're plastic with no insulation. This is identical to many others sold under different names, and there is no name or any other identification anywhere on the case of this one, nor is the seller the same as the brand. None of the suppliers provide any useful specifications, like wire gauge, and all of them call their units "professional", which is ludicrous. This one has what appear to be very thin (20 gauge or thinner) wires on the pen (it isn't marked in the standard way!). There is a 3-prong (grounded) plug, but the ground wire is cut off in the box. There isn't much to these devices electronically, and I'll revise this review if/when I find a better one for a reasonable price. I'd look for a well insulated handle and collet type nib retainers (rather than screws). I prefer plain wire nibs because they're inexpensive and reasonably easy to interchange, and you can make your own from cheap nichrome wire.

Only one handle works and I really wanted 2 that's why I ordered the double one. Other then one handle being defective and having to change to heads constant it's a great machine and I would have given 5 stars
