I received a hot air rework station for christmas (atten 8502d) that seems to have a problem... it will randomly turn off the heating elements in either the hot air wand or the soldering iron. It seems to work for a while at first, suggesting it could be a component heating up, no over temperature warnings are displayed or anything. I was personally thinking it looks like the microcontroller is resetting as it just cuts out and goes to the same state that it was in when it is first turned on. Internal wiring looks pretty neat but I did notice the uc was sitting in its socket a little oddly. I can provide pictures if required.
Edit: ill take some pictures soon when im not feeling so tired
