    Need to buy "Electric Vacuum Desoldering Gun"

    Greetings all.

    I have about 4, yes 4 free LG plasma TVs that are apparently suffering from the IPM chip failure. Since I got them free, I figured that replacing them and then selling the TVs would be worth while. Plus not to mention of all the repairs I do, it would be a handy thing to have.

    Basically this is is what I'll be doing... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8MNQYXw8E0

    Any recommendations on what to buy? I was first looking into Kakko's desoldering guns, since I really liked the soldering gun I got, but I saw the price and felt like I was getting...

    Then I saw this $10.00 one, but of course you get what you pay for....

    Thanks in advance!

    Re: Need to buy "Electric Vacuum Desoldering Gun"

    2 months ago I purchased Blackjack BK 4000 it is very good for the price $125.00
    I repaired maybe 20 monitors with it. My second choice would be Hakko 808 tips could be better quality it had good reviews. Don't buy the 9.00 pump not good Radio shack
    bulb pump is better for 12.00 but tips ware out fast.

      Hoover FM216LI cordless vacuum refuses to charge
      by flat-earther
      I have a Hoover FM216LI cordless vacuum which isn't charging its internal battery.

      I opened up the unit, and it has 6x Samsung ICR18650-22P cells connected in series.
      5 cells were at about 3.3-3.1V. one was at 2.4V, so I assumed this cell was bad that's why the vacuum wasn't charging so I replaced it with another 18650, but after that the problem still persists, the vacuum turns on a bit and then cuts out since the batteries are empty.

      So I think the over discharged battery wasn't the culprit, it was a symptom of the unit not being able to charge its batteries....

      HP EliteBook 840 G6 how to dump without desoldering
      by hans_meier
      Hi,

      I have an "HP EliteBook 840 G6" and would like to know how to dump the BIOS flash chip without desoldering. Putting 3.3V on VCC of the BIOS chip with a programmer does not work (seems to enable the PCH). I have read some general notes about connecting the CPU reset to ground or to bypass oscillators. There does not seem to be a reset line for Intel i5-8365U. Just RSMRST, but it's only accessible on the other side of the mainboard. Is there an easy way to dump the flash without desoldering and without removing the mainboard? Does anyone have experience with this? Maybe...

      ZD-915 vacuum pump motor mount service alert
      by sam_sam_sam
      If you have this Desoldering Gun Station there is something you should be aware of the two screws that hold the motor to mounting for pump can come loose and make raddling noise

      One note this unit has been repaired already once because of switching power supply regulator ic chip failure
      Now this with the vacuum motor mounting issue yes I give this Desoldering station a very hard work out and use about every weekend to do some type of project

      The fix is taking the vacuum pump assembly out and take the metal cover off and you will see the two screws on it

      Replacing the WiFi module on a vacuum cleaner iROBOT i7
      by AlexVG
      Hi,
      I have had an iROBOT i7 with a camera error (error 68) version REV M, year 2018.

      I bought a liquid damaged Mainboard with WiFi module, from the same vacuum cleaner, but a different year and a different version (REV G).
      (This board does not respond, only the LEDs light up in a circle.
      The liquid damage is catastrophic and restoration is impractical).
      (I bought this board to get the WiFi module and camera).

      The boards are completely different in the installation of elements, even the connector for the WiFi module is different.

      If...
