Review on πŸ”₯ FX888D Soldering Station by Hakko - Model 23BY 599B 02 by Robert Aliraqi

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A really good station for the price.

You can't go wrong with this station, it maintains its temperature even when heated on large projects. After reading other reviews I figured the initial two button setup would be confusing, but after watching the accompanying video I created my presets in under a minute. Heats up very quickly and cools down in 5 minutes. Get a set of Hakko T18 chisels and you're ready to tackle just about any project. I personally like the T18D16 universal point bit, but it has to be ordered separately from the chisel set. I use the slots in the sponge to store the tips and just use a separate cleaning container to clean all the tips. Remember to coat the tips of the tips with lead solder when storing and they will last you a long time.

Pros
  • Soldering Stations
Cons
  • Expensive
