I've been looking around at soldering stations and have noticed that all of the ones I come across have the bit inside element type iron rather than the bit over element type. As the bit over element is known to be more efficient (more heat into the bit and less into the air) why do all these soldering stations, some quite costly use the more inefficient type of iron ?
Where in the iron does the temperature get measured normally ?
