I made a special trip to WallyWorld after seeing Mahlon's post. They were in
the area where all the other tools are. I had to ask a salesperson, but she
knew right where to find them. There are several other varieties on the same
rack. Can't go wrong at the price... A must-have for remote soldering.

I searched high and low at my local Walmart and couldn't find one. What
department was it in? BTW a websearch indicates that the Ronson number is
82009.
