    2 in 1 and if you have a good one it comes with extra bits so you can just pull that one off with your bare fingers and put a new one in.

        I wouldn’t recommend it. I do pyrography, and used one that screws in the tip. Thought I’d turned it off > 10 minutes ago, and used my index and thumb to start unscrewing it.

        I could first hear it. Like a tiny sizzle, imagine miniature bacon. It feels cold, but then I started understanding what the sound was.

        Then I realised I’d just gotten burned. Hard. It’s not big, but I kept my fingers in water for a while to cool. Now I just have tiny scars that looks cool.

        I’d rate it at 3/10.

        I know you said it as a joke, and I have no idea why I wrote this reply, but here we are. Do with it as you please.
