Great value and service

Bought a replacement shell and some thumbscrews for my Pinecil here - very happy with the experience.

It seems that getting anything Pinecil related in the UK is overly expensive as places selling their kit aren't UK based so shipping becomes expensive.

I found TestClips UK after doing a little googling and I'm glad I did - the prices are great and delivery was quick. The parts came well packaged and arrived quickly. Super happy, I can use my Pinecil again after the original shell cracked, and the thumb screws are a nice upgrade to change tips quickly.

I'll be buying from here again!

First time using TestClips

This was my first time using TestClips and I wasn't sure, but I needn't of worried, I bought a Pinecil V2, some Goot desoldering wick and some Thumb screws for the Pinecil,
All genuine items and I am loving using my new soldering iron,
The service was excellent and very quick delivery.
I will be using TestClips again in the future.

Easy to order but I made an error and missed the house number off my address! I contacted seller by email and got a response in a couple of hours even though it was a weekend, great customer service.

Good supplier, will order more.

I have ordered from Testclips many times, and basically emptied most of the catalogue. I did have one problem, I was phoned up that evening - turns out I had not read the manual correctly :-( Please stock MORE cool kit.

Happy with purchase!

Were listed as an affiliate on the pine64 wiki, was a bit concerned due to there only being one review on trustpilot but figured it'd be no more of a risk than going the aliexpress route.

Very happy with my soldering iron and am doubly happy I went with some of the additional items they recommended buying with it (e.g. the thumb screws).

Seems to be legit.

Seems to be legit.
I was initially worried about ordering from them given the lack of trustpilot reviews with the only information i could find for reassurance being a reddit thread where a representative of the company who make the product I purchased mentioned them as a UK stockist.

The item I ordered from them a few days ago arrived today. It starts up seemingly happily but I need to first acquire a suitable power supply and some other associated items before I can be certain of full functionality.
