About this deal

Perhaps the components to solder selected by the seller not where the best option, but all connectors that I did solder with the Pace at showroom took the same time and effort than with the 951 and most the same time than the 888D. to avoid having to wire both voltages to the circuit — this is safe since the output is only used to drive the BJT transistors, not fed back to the 3. When you do production soldering one or two (long and boring) days a week, you might spend a bit just to change things up! The highest I've ever set my 888 is 380C, and only for a matter of seconds to solder to 18650 cells, or the like. I bought some years ago the 888d, really better than 936, not a huge difference, but definitively better.

Can be used in combination with the HAKKO 490 smoke cleaner or the HAKKO 494 smoke absorbing system for line-production. I used to be an old Weller (notice the iron in my avatar) and Hakko guy and used Pace among other brands years ago at work. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. The powerful thermal recovery allows soldering at lower temperature settings, while the tips available offer the user a vast array of options.Assembled the iron, inserting the tip into the sleeve then the sleeve into the handpiece, threaded through the heat-resistant pad, then plugged into the station. Tip design keeps area that requires the heat to allow for good solder flow with the other area kept below the excessive heat.

Nonetheless, even with the poor UI, hopefully adjusting temperature control should be rarely rare so it is not that big of a deal. In my Hakkos or in the Pace that I test I set one temp and solder almost all of the components without compromise. Changing tips, I see the airgap and there's the problem - you can't get good heat transfer that way, for both the sensor or the heater. Quote Like when you switch it on, change the temp, select a preset, swap tips, the mysterious absence of the control card that blocks the user interface, what do you think about entering temp offsets? There was more thermal drop in the T12 clones, using the same tips; the T12 stations had to be set higher and had to be turned up higher and/or more frequently when encountering heavy joints, using the equivalent tips.Before you seriously consider the Hakko FX-951 check what I wrote about the Pace station a few posts back.

Compared to the FX-888D, which is mainly used for private use, this soldering station is made for everyone who must be able to rely on his soldering station every day. I can't compare it to systems I haven't tried, but I have tried 'clone' tips and they just sucked compared to the OE Hakko. In this article I’ll cover what I upgraded to and from, then conclude with using the new tools to rebuild a prototyped circuit onto a printed circuit board (as shown in the image on the left). the T12 clones had to be set to a higher set temp to solder the same things, noticeable after months of use and confirmed with scientific testing with temperature tester. I've been bitten by a well regarded cheap soldering station before and regretted not spending a bit more on a decent and proven station.Forced myself to use T12, solely, for 2 months just to make sure I got used to it and didn't short change it.
