Hello
Are there any advantages to a digital setting waxing iron vs a conventional iron with a dial to set the temp?
A few years ago I bought an entry level wintersteiger iron and set the dial for the wax I use using with a Fluke Infrared Thermometer and then never touched the dial.
The reason I ask is that a friend is interested in getting started to wax his skis. I was thinking of giving him mine and then upgrading?
Part of me believes that once the temp is set the it doesn't matter if it is digital or not? Figuring that once the temp is set, the regulation method is the same.
Perhaps some of you know more of the technical workings of a digital iron and potential benefits?
