    Re: Soldering/desoldering station

    Thanks for the heads up on the fake brass wool. It was on my list to replace, but maybe not for a while longer until I find some legit stuff.

    redwire: kapton tape for shielding nearby parts. I also have some thin strips (20-30mm) of aluminum and stainless that I sometimes use.

        Modification to a ZD-987 desoldering/soldering station using a external switching power supply
        by sam_sam_sam
        I have been working on this concept for quite some time now with limited success but recently I found a switching power supply that is setup for the voltage that this soldering station needs to operate at however it also needs part of the secondary circuit from the original switching power because you need several voltage rails

        I once tried to get a ZD-915 desoldering station to work on a 18 volt battery power supply but unfortunately things did not go well but I did find a work around but I might try this idea again but going at a little differently more about this another time...

        18VDC PSU completely dead - ZD-915 desoldering station
        by armini
        Hi everyone!

        Three years ago I got a ZD-915 desoldering station which failed just after a few months of light use. During a short desoldering session, the station simply shut down, and since then it has been completely dead and unresponsive. The failure was silent, without any pops.

        Due to a lack of time, I set it aside and didn't look at it.

        Yesterday, I took it apart and did some basic measurements. The 18v terminal shows 0v. In addition, there is no visible damage to the board itself.

        According to replies in 18VDC PSU has dropped to...

        What soldering station should I purchase for 900M-TJ-I tip?
        by chth96
        hello.
        A few months ago,I have purchased 0.1mm Soldering Iron Tip of below aliexpress link,But I noticed that It is totally impossible to use this 0.1mm iron tip in the T12 soldering station
        https://ko.aliexpress.com/item/4001275635593.html
        Is there any good soldering station which is possible to use 900M-TJ-I tip and have inexpensive or reasonable price in aliexpress?
        Any reply would be appreciated.

        Recommendations of quality soldering station and (separate) hot air station
        by caprider
        Hey,

        I'm looking for some recommendations of a decent quality soldering station and a separate hot air station. I'm just a hobbyist, so even if (ultra)premium tools are not required, I still want some good tools. They should be available in Europe.

        I now have a TS100 and some soldering irons and looking for some better tools.

        1. Soldering station, budget around 200-240€
        JBC BT-2BWA seems to be a good product in the budget.

        2. Hot air station, budget around 200€
        Up to now I've found ATTEN ST-862D to be a good option....

        KSGER C245 Soldering station PSU 220V only?
        by mkbehbeh
        I purchased this soldering station when it was on sale at amazon. It had a slew of one star reviews, but the price was low enough that even if the controller and PSU were toast, the handle tips and stand were worth more than the price. All of the reviews mentioned that the unit was either DOA, or died on the first use. I looked on Aliexpress and the first clue was that KSGER still sold the 220V version of this station, but all of the 110V versions had been discontinued. I figured That there was a problem with the 110V on the power suppply and the controller would be fine.

        I am...
