This guy selss stuff he works with and just yesterday I watched about soldering pen and he actually noted that the tip is short to increase precision: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6d2aj9ddbc&t=11m32s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6d2aj9ddbc&t=11m32s
I'v looked up TS100 and Pinecil and by default looks like they come with long tips?
I'm in the market of soon buying new soldering iron, so paying some attention, but I can't/won't order from US, so would be excellent if someone can point out where to buy quality tip that is short and holds solder like new after many uses.

The unified cartridge, where the heater and tip are one assembly (as seen in the TS100/Pinecil, T12, etc) tends to have much tighter thermal regulation than the separate tip style (T18 / 900M / etc). I've found it more than adequate on all but the skinniest tips. Mechanically, eh, the grip-to-tip distance is already pretty long, another 3mm isn't going to change anything there.
