DO NOT USE DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time it is unfortunately not possible to white list users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

I saw the tip in the other thread where you posted a pic. I have looked around and found a solution for ya, gets really hot, heats pretty much instantly, and I believe you can get it with a holster option for quick soldering jobs!!
