Money Order, etc.?

Buyer backed out so I still have for sale the above.

Given to me as a gift but since I'm 99.9% CW I don't have a need for 
them. These items are new, the mic has had only a few words spoken 
into it...  ;-) .  I'll ship them anywhere in the conus for $55.00 (or 
make reasonable offer). Please contact me off line if interested.


Thanks,

Re: [Elecraft] Soldering station

2004-12-02 Thread Anthony Luscre K8ZT
My order arrived yesterday but the soldering station was back ordered. 
There were items in stock (according to web site) when I ordered mine.
By the way the free gift VOM Multimeter (when you order $50 of stuff) is 
very nice, big digits, nonslip rubber housing, etc.

Mike and all,

Thanks for the heads up, Mike.  I'm wondering if anyone has ordered and received the Circuit Specialists soldering stations which looked like Hakko 936's ?  If so could they give us a similar report on that unit?  


At $35.00 it is indeed a tempting buy, but with Mike's post...?

Thanks,

Subject: [Elecraft] Soldering station

 

(this is a resend to the list, the first was bounced by QTH.net 
because their postmaster has some brain-dead SMTP spam checking 
misconfiguration which produces false positives (for the subject 
line Circuit Specialists 701 rework station:. Gr.)


About a week ago, Tom Hammond pointed out that Circuit Specialists 
had some soldering stations which looked like Hakko 936's ( 
http://www.circuitspecialists.com/prod.itml/icOid/7307 ) for a 
good price. I noticed that they had a through hole rework station 
( http://www.circuitspecialists.com/prod.itml/icOid/7789 ) which 
also looked very similar to a Hakko offering. There has been some 
conjecture that these are the same as the Hakko units, but are 
being sold by an OEM to Hakko for considerably less.


Since my 20 year old Pace desoldering station recently died, I 
thought I'd try out one of these, especially since the $200 price 
was by far better than anything else available. This is about 20% 
of what a similar Hakko unit runs.


I receive my station today, and can report that these are very 
obviously NOT the same as real Hakko products. They're Chinese 
clones. As mentioned earlier, these are made by Aoyue ( 
http://www.aoyue.com/english/index.htm ). From the looks of this 
unit, I doubt Aoyue OEMs anything to Hakko - some things are 
close, others are functional, but none are of the same quality.


The desoldering handpiece is of decent quality. It appears that it 
will take Hakko spares, including heaters and tips. It could 
definitely use a better tip - this one is chrome (?) plated and 
won't tin. The soldering pencil has a rubber grip instead of the 
heat insulating foam a real Hakko has, but is overall of decent 
quality. Both use multipin microphone style circular connectors, 
which is different than what Hakko uses.


The station itself is workable, the electronics seem to do what 
they're supposed to (they regulate tip temperature and have an LED 
which lights when power is applied to the tip, so it blinks when 
the tip is at the set temp). The controls (switches and pots) are 
pretty cheap, I'll probably upgrade these. They silk screened 
Circuit Specialists on the front, but didn't bother with a 
Fahrenheit temperature scale. The manufacturer took time to grind 
the markings off the ICs on the circuit board (they copied Hakko, 
but don't want to be copied themselves, I guess), and no schematic 
is provided in the manual.


The biggest obvious difference is that it uses a completely 
different vacuum pump than a real Hakko - meaning no ready source 
of spare parts. The pump  actually works better than that on my 
old Pace. One strange thing though, is that the instruction manual 
(in pretty good Engrish [ http://www.engrish.com/ ]) clearly shows 
how to disassemble and clean a Hakko pump. The actual pump is 
completely different than that illustrated in the manual.


All things considered, it works well. Time will tell how this unit 
holds up, but it seems to be a good deal. A couple of better 
quality switches and pots, some real Hakko desoldering tips, and a 
bit of time should take care of the minor issues.
