Okay, I did something epically stupid.
I left my soldering iron plugged in. For like a day at least. Epic stupid. I just found out.
Anyway, this thing cost me like $50. What are it's chances of survival? It's a Weller WP25, 25 watts, 750 degrees temperature controlled. It was still spurting out heat when I found it was plugged in, so does that mean it's fine? Or do they die afterwards?
Should I flash-cool it or just let it cool off?
Am I overreacting?
