I bought a new IR-231 about 20 years ago. Seems like it was right at $150 and that was retail through a tool distributor. Whatever the price may have gone up, it would still be a very good investment.
Anyway, it was always ballsy enough for whatever I needed. I got out of the mechanic trade in '92 but since have occasionally used it, and it still works great, even when it sits for long periods of time in a none temp-controlled garage.
