Gore-tex isnt that great these days, there are better options now.
It requires dwr to function, as soon as the dwr fails (pretty fast depending on your usage levels) its ability to breath ceases to function, at that point you're wearing a heavy, expensive, water proof coat that doesn't breath so it rains on the inside instead.
It's saving grace is that it's durable in heavy brush.
For a better alternative take a look at Columbia outdry, it doesn't require dwr so its breathability lasts for the life of the garment instead of requiring retreatments of dwr.
Frogg toggs are another option, way less durable but as far as breathable rain proof it doesn't get better.
Both outdry and frogg toggs are also way lighter than goretext. Though look around for the outdry they have heavy duty and light versions.
Hakko 950 soldering iron. It's an analog dial version of an extremely awful digital interface. It's small and compact so takes up little desk space, heats up fast, has incredibly stable heat and adjustments don't require looking at what your hand is doing.
