Further persistence with it: Without proximity to iron it draws a little over an amp. I think I was just not bringing my small screwdriver close enough to the coil. If I place it inside the coil then the unit draws over 4 amps and I do get a red hot screwdriver. Perhaps the photo sent by another purchaser is deceptive or perhaps I should set my supply to 12 volts.
