Anyone found aftermarket tips for this yet? The milwaukee ones are expensive

Search for Hakko T18 tip on Amazon.

Does the bare tool come with tips?

Yes it comes with a pointed and a flat tip

How quick does it run through the smaller M12 batteries. The ones that are the circumference of the tool not the big square ones

With the small batteries it will go about 20 minutes continuously. It heats up super fast so it's no prob to just shut it off between wires. I just patched up a mouse chewed outboard motor wiring harness on one battery and it was in rough shape. This tool is pretty incredible.
