If electrical equipments fascinate you and you have the zeal to work on wires and circuits you must be friends with the soldering machine. Soldering machines have been in use since decades with every generation making optimum use of it in every required project.
Using a soldering machine is a skill that improves with every use. Initially when you start off it is not at all easy holding the machine with one hand and the solder wire with the other. Using the two in tandem is pretty difficult in the beginning and this could lead to burns and injuries, at times serious ones too! The fumes emitted in the process could lead to other health problems.
Designer Moonhwan Lee has a firsthand experience with the soldering machine in high school. Being well aware of the risks revolving around the machine he tried to make things simpler for the coming generations and came up with the design of the Lepen soldering pen system.
Shaped like a pen Lepen has been designed with the aim of providing safety and convenience to its users. Everyone grows up learning how to write using a pen or a pencil and with that skill well acquired by the brain it will not be a difficult task to use Lepen.
The design is sleek and stylish and its functionality is absolutely simple. Like a normal pen that has ink inside it, Lepen contains a replaceable lead based solder. When the release button on the side of the pen is pressed hot wires near the tip heats the lead and melts it. Thereafter the lead easily flows out onto to the desired area. This aspect of filling the pen with the alloy renders the other hand free from holding the solder wir. As a result, this helps give better results and keeps the fingers away from the heated alloy. Thus the number of injuries is bound to reduce.
This soldering pen system is a rechargeable device which comfortably fits in to the circular hole on the triangular charging unit. The area surrounding the recharging hole serves as a smoke absorber.
The functions and mode of use of Lepen soldering pen system perfectly achieves what Lee had desired. It is absolutely safe as it keeps the user away from injuries and smoke. It is a very comfortable device due to its pen style of operation with no separate solder wire to hold on to.

With Lepen around soldering is going to be a fun job.
