Review: Great iron and heatgun, makes my life easier - There's several times where I've had dual USB ports broken and needed to replace them. Before I'd done this with a soldering iron and lots of effort, ended up destroying the old USB port in order to get it off the board. The clean up was message and took loads of effort to get the board ready to put the new port in place. Getting this station is a revelation. Whilst I already had the remenants of the old ports to deal with, I wasn't looking forward to the clean up, it was hard and messy with my old iron. Using the heat gun from this station I set the temp to 380C and put on the small nozzle. A few minutes of heating and I was able to use my solder suck to simple pull out the old solder and bits of metal from the old pins without any real effort. This cleaned up the ports fantastically. Using the smallest tip, I was able to make sure that all the holes for the pins were clear and prepared for the new USB Port. This was really easy and quick. Soldering in the new port was a breeze too. During the process I did manage to unsolder a surface mount capacitor. I wasn't paying attention, so reset that in place with the heat gun too. It didn't take much effort, just used the tweezers to hold the component in place whilst I directed the hot air to get the solder to flow and hold everything in place. This is defiantly the best iron and heat gun that I've used. This has already proven itself to me to make my life easier for soldering and desoldering boards for repair. Well worth the money, and I love the control the temp and airspeed settings give.
Review: Impressed. - I've had a few solder stations over the years and all have had something that annoyed me about them. I've used this quite a bit now and I can say that it's not got any of the annoying problems the others had. I just love the fact that whilst you are using / moving the iron (I believe it is a mercury style switch inside) it doesn't go to sleep - this was an annoyance on my old station that you had to press a button to wake it. It doesnt take very long from sleep mode to full temperature at all, a matter of a few seconds. The heat gun having auto start and stop when lifted out of the cradle is great. I havent used this for SMD work as I primarily wanted into for heatshrink so cant comment on its use for that. The only thing I feel let's the station down a little is the feel of the plastic used, however considering this station has the same features that some really expensive stations have I'm not complaining! UPDATE: After 6 months of regular use (at weekends) this has stood the test of time. It is such a pleasure to use compared to my old, more expensive, solder station. The station still functions perfectly. I complained about the feel of the plastic used before and I stand by that. I have two more things that I feel should be altered.. The first is that if you not paying attention when placing the soldering iron back in its stand it can fall out - this is because of the slot that is in the back of the stand - it is there to make it easier to get the iron in and out but ive knocked it out a few times.. The other is that when the station is on my desk the power lead is barely long enough to reach the floor. If it is plugged into the socket at desk height / on the desk it would be fine but my power socket is underneath the desk.

## Features

- This multi-station comes with advanced functions, precision features, and essential soldering / desoldering / rework tools & accessories such as X-2 storage system, digital temperature calibration, hot air in-holder standby mode, 10 minutes sleep mode, and more. You can use this station for general & advanced soldering, SMD circuit board rework, and other applications.
- The multi-station supports hot air rework temp. range of 100°C-480°C, and soldering temp. range of 200°C-480°C for your work. The hot air rework and soldering stations are equipped with their individual PID programme to stabilize the set temperature to give you a consistent work result. The parameters are shown on a digital LCD display for easy reference.
- This multi-station also comes with advanced functions such as digital temperature calibration, hot air in-holder standby mode, 10 minutes sleep mode, and more. You can correct the iron's temperature discrepancies by simply measuring and entering its actual temperature value in the calibration interface. The hot air in-holder standby mode and 10 mins soldering iron sleep more can extend the consumable parts' lifespan such as heating element and more.
- X2 Storage System- As compared to the flimsy soldering iron stands, the X2 holder system provides a stable holster for the soldering iron, while integrating all the essential cleaning tools you need in ONE. We integrated the iron holder, cleaning kit, protective residual tray, iron tips temporary storage slots, and solder spool holder into one stable holder to help clean up your workspace and improve the safety factor.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this soldering station and hot air rework station good for general purpose soldering and smd, tht soldering?**
A: It’s pretty good and probably a bit overkill for general purpose soldering. It’s generally well built and quite quick to heat up, though I would look to get better soldering iron tips, as the ones that come with it aren’t Amazing

**Q: What is the Wattage rating of the soldering iron, I have a 48W iron currently which needs to be against the component too long to melt the solder.**
A: Don’t know but I have used this on a lot of PCB boards, especially older ones with a lot of heavy duty components and it has no problems

**Q: How long does it take for the soldering iron to heat up?**
A: Very fast. Usually within around 15-20 seconds.

**Q: Would this be good as a starter for Console repair?**
A: This Station is fantastic, i’m sure it would meet most requirements.
The quality i think for the money is on point - 10/10 for me.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than expected
*by K***N on 6 September 2023*

Excellent quality product. I have been using it for about a month now and am very pleased with its performance. Came with an excellent variety of soldering and ironing tips. The hot gun is also excellent. What I like most about this product is that I can replace the soldering iron with a new one if it ever breaks or wears out. The last similar station that I had did not have this feature and when the ceramic heating element broke the only option I had was to replace the whole unit. The cables on the unit, the hot gun and the soldering Iron are also just the right length, not too long, not too short. Both the heat gun and the soldering iron heat up very quickly. Highly recommend this product.
