HAKO SOLDERING IRON WANTED

Apr 18, 2011 10 Replies

I would like to find a cheap 936 or so, Hako iron.



Thank you.



1) It's "HAKKO", two Ks. 2) This isn't eBay 3) What thought process brought you to a DESIGN group for a bloody "wanted" ad? 4) Didn't we go throug this BS already?

Oh yeah, we did. Get back on your meds, you lunatic.

Like some dumbfuck on netzero needs to be in here acting like a Nazi retard. Well, idiot... you succeeded.

I bought one new at Frys. I thought it was relatively cheap. Damn that thing is ready for action quickly.

Fry's has (or had) it for $70:

For a bit less, there are Hakko clones made by Aoyue, and some say they're good enough.

The cheapest temperature controlled iron I've seen that has plenty of power is the Goot PX-201, rated for about 70W, which is good enough even for lead-free solder. It's self-contained and doesn't have a base station, and it's a bit fat. Goot is a Japanese company known for high quality soldering equipment.

If you buy something from eBay, be sure it's made for your AC voltage because much of the soldering equipment sold there is made for

220-240VAC.

Thanks, L,M and C.

I bought a Hakko 936 station from Fry's on sale and I think it was something ridiculous like 18 bux. I wish that I had bought 5 or so of them. I couldn't believe the price.

I need another one for a different development station for the Cortex M3

Surely, you are nothing more than a top posting Usenet retard that we should all ignore completely.
