FAQs

Does the TS101 come with a power supply?

No, the TS101 is provided as a standalone unit and requires a compatible DC adapter or USB-C PD power bank.

Can I use my old TS100 tips?

Yes, the TS101 is fully backwards compatible with all tips designed for the TS100.

What is the maximum temperature range?

The TS101 supports an optimized temperature range of 50 to 400 degrees Celsius.

How do I switch between power modes?

The iron automatically detects the power source and adjusts its power profile based on the connected input.

Is the anti-slip cap safe to use while the tip is hot?

Yes, the cap is heat-resistant and designed to serve as both a stand and a tool for swapping hot tips.

Troubleshooting

Device fails to power on

Check that the power supply meets the minimum 9V DC requirement or is a certified USB-C PD charger.

Tip does not lock securely

Ensure the tip is pushed firmly into the handle so that the internal ball screw mechanism can engage properly.

Display is faint or unreadable

Adjust the brightness settings within the device menu to suit your ambient lighting conditions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Compatible with existing TS100 tips
  • Dual power source flexibility (DC and USB-C)
  • Tool-less tip changing system
  • Rapid heating performance
  • Compact and highly portable

Cons

  • Power supplies not included in the base package
  • Maximum 65W performance requires specific DC voltage
  • Small form factor may feel awkward for users with larger hands

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the TS101, slide your chosen tip into the handle until the ball screw mechanism locks it securely in place. Ensure you are using a power supply that meets the voltage requirements (9V-24V for DC or standard USB-C PD). For care, ensure the tip is properly tinned before powering down to prevent oxidation. Always use the included anti-slip cap to rest the iron when not in use to protect your workspace from heat damage. The TS101 is fully compatible with legacy TS100 tips, allowing you to use your existing collection.
