      Thanks for the link.


      I've been looking around for a desoldering station, so this has come at just the right time. I see that the previous price was £84 (inc VAT). Still cheaper than Ebay & Amazon.


      It gets good reviews too, so I'll be ordering one.

        Thanks for reminding me that my Maplin badged soldering station is actually a Duratool, so I can get more soldering iron tips!
        Now if only I could get round to fixing the temperature buttons so I can turn the heat down!

              Pretty fast delivery too. Arrived within a few days.

              I ordered the spares kit with mine. Only cost £2.40, so thought it was worth getting at the same time to save on postage.

              Havent used it yet, but I've got plenty of components awaiting removal.

                      Re: September equipment offer (u.k.)

                      While we're on the subject - can anyone recommend a hot air station?
                      Duratool have one big unit that's an iron and hot air, or they have a separate hot air station, or other brands? Cheaper is better, but not chinese enough to cause a 240v mains short and explode like the last one! Comments welcome before I make a mistake!

                        £25 858D's all over ebay, or £300 for a Quick.
                        nothing in between worth talking about.

                          [Offer] Acer IPIMB-AR (w/o on-board gfx) of Acer Predator G5920 fullflash BIOS
                          by Roman555
                          I'd like to offer an Acer IPIMB-AR Rev: 1.02A fullflash BIOS (cleaned ME region). The model is for Acer Predator G5920.
                          It is a model that is based on Intel Z77 PCH and doesn't have on-board graphics and video connectors.
                          I suppose it doesn't have any restriction about discrete graphics cards (I mean they don't have to be in a whitelist).
                          Please don't mistake this mainboard with a similar model with on-board graphics and based on Intel B75 PCH.

                          Jumper FLASH_OVERRIDE
                          default position: 1-2 - BIOS area protected
                          position 2-3 allows to dump BIOS or write

                          Opinions/Advice on Do/Should I replace ALL Electrolytic Capacitors on old equipment?
                          by RetroComputingGrotto
                          I've just been repairing some (very) old speakers with a loud hum that occurred as soon as you powered them on regardless if any actual audio is played through them. I work in a School so it's 99% likey that the Teachers have hardly ever turned the power off on them for well over 10+ years.



                          As you can see the top large capacitor on the right has a bulge on the top so defincately needs replacing. As the one next to it is exactly the same capacity and voltage I planned to replace them both.


                          What is your advice/opinion on whether or not on old(er)...

                          Use of a Variac to slowly power up equipment
                          by tony359
                          Hi all,

                          I have an old Apple II monitor to restore and I do have a big variac. I've always wondered whether a variac is a good idea to power on equipment which has been unpowered for (likely) decades?

                          When it comes to analogue stuff, I suppose it's ok and I'm probably going to see the device slowly coming back to life with a lower voltage applied.

                          But I suppose this won't work for devices with digital components in it as they won't work unless the proper voltages are applied?

                          In case of an old monitor, it is safe/good for the monitor to...

                          Weird clipping on Logitech Z-10 speakers
                          by dreamlayers
                          I bought used Logitech Z-10 computer speakers. They can act as a USB audio device or accept line input, and they have a headphone output jack. Some music didn't sound right, so I played a frequency sweep and heard other frequencies and beat frequencies between them and the sweep. I uploaded a spectrogram of a frequency sweep. From the very start, some but not all odd harmonics are visible, indicating symmetric distortion. Then at higher frequencies there are descending images of those harmonics, indicating non-linearity and constant higher frequency noise mixing with the harmonics. The image of...
