This is not a product review, more of a product description. A review would be using the unit talking about how it's melting solder, Removing parts. both Iron and Air alike. JS!
I finally bought it and I must say, this is one of the best rework stations I have ever own :D
Excellent review. I bought this model after following your review.
I think your video is the one of the finest make videos and reviews of any product I've ever seen. It just convinced me to purchase the 968A+ when I was wondering what to buy. Thank you very much!
buying it based on your review!!. Great work and thank you!! :)
Thanks for making and sharing this video, will thinking about to buy one now
Oh, if other people from Germany are watching this, I recommend you buy one directly from Aoyue. On Ebay (Germany) you pay €15 to €60 more for the 968A+.
Thanks so much this great review! I think youve helped me make up my mind.
Thank you very much for posting your very good review. I especially appreciate the large level of detail you included.
Thank you for the review just got 1 from Amazon great product!
Cheers. Been running one of these for near on 5 years. Paid for itself over and over. Mostly computers, drones, stuff for friends and family. Not an expert but mostly smd and through hole. Very reliable workhorse. Never calibrated the iron. Not sure how to actually measure the tip temperature safely lol.
Thank you, interesting video, I was looking around to be convinced which rework station will attract my attention, this one has more to offer, thanks again for offering your experience with it...
Hi thank you , your video convinced me buying this item .
No problem, Glad I could be of help to you!
Hey like your review.. Trying to figure out which to purchase between the Aoyue 738h and this model (968A+)
I don't have this particular unit, but have the 2702 workstation, and I must say, it's been a beast, still going strong after 10+ years, the only shame is that it's hard to get ahold of the plug-in type tips these days.
Very helpfull review, thank you
great review!!...contemplating in purchasing one of these badboys soon :)
Graet video. Help me out alot. Just got my unit yesterday.
Wonderful, how is it going ?
1HandTech love it
Great review!!
So Im New to using a Hot Air Nozzle, Up to now Im old school with solder pencil and Bulb Technic. Does this Unit allow for using this " Fume Extractor " which I dont care about for a Desolder Vacuum ? Is this usable ? My Biggest issue in solder board work is Removing solder after it melts ....will this unit suck it up ?
I just brought a second hand (no pun intended) 968 not the 968a soldering station for $55.It seemed like a decent unit and i could not complain about the price.The guy i purchased it off says he also has a weller and this works just as good as that.I am new to soldering and electronics but have recently gotten myself an interest in RC helicopters and Quads.I was initially a little distracted and had to replay a couple of times but when i realised it was your hand and not your foot,fantastic vid.
Which wand are you reffering to. The soldering Iron stand that comes with the unit is very nice. It is heaving and made of steel. The holder for the hot air gun is mounted on the side of the unit and works very well also.
Hola, en caso de bajar el voltaje de 220v a 110v ¿qué potencia debe ser el transformador?
beautiful and detailed review, Sir i have a question, can i use this for desoldering and resoldering of BGA chips of laptop motherboard along with separate preheater. if your answer is no can you suggest or recommend durable, reliable and cost effect bga system perfect in all respects for laptop motherboard reballing etc.
thanks a lot, waiting for your reply eagerly. Gowhar (INDIA)
You have a great deal of experience (1HandTech) with these multi-function hot air
stations. I'm a weekend warrior type so I was looking for a lower cost basic station. The 968A+ and the xtronic are more than I was hoping to spend. I've seen a 853D for about $90...but it seems there are several companies that manufacture an 853D model - Yihua 853D, WEP 853D, and I see a no-branded version of 853D
on ebay, and I see a Kendel 852D frequently...are these lower cost units junk? I'm struggling with all of the 853D variations...it would be cool to see a matrix of features
for these 3-in-1 units.
Hi! Nice review... I just saw the hot air gun hose has spring reliefs on both sides; I have this rework station for 1.5 years (to all my satisfactory) and never knew it was included. Mine doesn't have those reliefs... but I'll take a look into the original package. ;) BTW: I just bought the Aoyue 474A++ desoldering station also... the pair match together just fine!
The Mark Ethan 968DB+ looks like a very similar unit. Do you have an opinion between these two?
Hello, it runs with 220V/60Hz input signal? Thanks
Hey great detailed review. I'm torn between getting this 968A+ or the Aoyue 2702A+. One big difference is that the 2702A+ also comes with a desoldering iron, which uses the exact same power connection as the soldering iron and same vacuum tube as the smoke absorber. So I'm wondering if this 968A+ can also fit the replacement Aoyue desoldering gun to the same connection as the soldering iron and smoke absorber. If it is compatible, would you think the pump is strong enough for desoldering?
Have you had any problems with the circuitry going bad - particularly with the transistors?
hi thanks for your review...did you finaly check if the desoldering gun fits to this 968a+
I am not sure if the pump on the 968A+ is strong enough but I have the 2703A+ now and I am using it before doing a review on it. It is the upgrade from the 2702. Stay tuned for it as it may be a better choice than both of the options you spoke of. In the mean time, I will find out about the pump on the 968A+ and see if it will work or not.
Do you recomend this station for microsoldering like on Smartphones logicboards?
Is there a desoldering iron or gun on here?
Great Job!!!!
friend to have to remove the lower bolts of the machine before use, and if one does not remove them by mistake that happens? good video greetings ...
Thanks for the reply. Only major difference between the 2703A+ and 2702A+ is that the 2703A+ has 2 power connections to use the soldering iron and the desoldering gun simultaneously, where as the 2702A+ can only use one at a time. This feature is hard to justify a $80 price difference.
Anyways, I was particularly interested in a desoldering gun that will work with the 968A+, so can you quickly plug in the gun from your 2703A+ into your 968A+ and let me know? Much thanks!
On the 6040 do aoyue heat gun nozzles work?
Well done, thank you. I'm thinking about getting one from Amazon at the same price. Still like it?
This was a good review.
Thank You So Much
We didn't get to see the vacuum wand in action. Does this use the same hose as the smoke remover? Do you pull the hose off the soldering iron side and attach it to the vacuum wand? Good review though - I appreciate the overview.
What do you think about buying a 3+1 unit like this or separate stations for each ?
Which station do you like the best out of the 6040, 4040 and 968A+?
Thank you for your feedback, stay tuned for more review. I will have some more out in the next week or two with more test equipment.
does it have an air filter for the fume extractor?
yes and they are replaceable
Thank you man
Hi Test the heat on the pen the one I got was reading 250c but was 350c use a halo 191 Jeff.
I should do update on this video, after using for a while I noticed some other things as well that I didnt particularly like. I do not have this model anymore still use the Xtronic one. All in all better products than the Aoyue ones. They are still decent products that will get the job done at a very competative price though.
Thanks
I was going to ask which Xtronic, but found your review on the X-TRONIC 6040
good info
I think these 3-in-1 station are great as long as you get good quality ones like this one. If you were to buy them all as seperate machines you would have different peices of equipment, probably taking up more space on your workbench and more plugs to worry about. Having all of them in one small form factor unit is besst but don't just go out and buy any of them. There are a lot of generic copy cats out there nd you could get swindled.
Does the smoke absorber block your field of view especially under a microscope?
I will be having the unboxing of the 2703A+ uploading later tonight or tomorrow morning and the review will be coming up very soon after. As for the X-tronic products, my new favorite is the 9020. It uses a hakko heating element and has much better thermal recovery of the soldering iron tip than other models. Stay tuned for all of the reviews and teardowns of these products.
You don't show that you unscrew transportic screw under the soldering station.You did it?
I am sorry about not including the vacume wand in the video, but I will be uploading another video about this unit with a teardown and a look at the inside of it. I will try and include it on that video. But to answer your question, yes it uses the same suction point as the fume extractor does. They both have seperate hoses, but they look to be the same width so I dont think it really matters which hose to use.
Overall, I like the 6040 the best. The quality of the 6040 is very comparable to the 968A+ but the footprint is smaller.
THAT SPONGE HAS NEVER SEEN WATER
I was wondering why his channel was called 1HandTech! I need to get me 1 of those hands.... I mean Stand, soldering stand!!
There is nothing wrong with the software controlling the temperature. The temperature is controlled by a PID controller. The PID controllers by design will swing the temperatures high and low, back and forth while getting closer until the PID finds the voltage that is necessary maintain a temperature setting.
Хороший обзор спасибо
The hot air gun will heat up and cool down while on the holder that is attached to the unit. There is no need for another one.
No they do not. The 6040 uses a proprietary nozzle for the heat gun but the 968A+ uses the same nozzles as the 4040 unit does.
hands up dude. freaky fingers tho. i have a freaky ear
Si rompe subito e non hanno i ricambi, l'ho buttata e ho comprato di un altra azienda...
Yeah, kind of a waste of a half an hour just to hear you prattle on. Would have been nice to have seen it in use. Thumbs down there guy, there’s no excuse in this day and age for inadequacy
don't buy if you a noob to soldering! Noob meaning- Never used a soldering iron, never fixed electronic's or done rework!
For Noob's : Radio Shack Soldering iron ( standard iron, ask rep for help ) sponge tray, flux, solder wire, cleaning tip tray ! $15- $20
