Review on 🔧 Hakko FX888D 23BY Digital Soldering Station: Superior Performance and Precision by Jerry Delic

So it says it takes 120v as max so I'll admit plugging it into a regular outlet was a mistake. However, knowing that this unit has a fuse, I opened it (btw this doesn't seem to void the warranty as there are no stickers on it to say it doesn't). or any other information about it intended to discourage you from doing so). When I opened it up I found that the fuse had blown but also that they had hard soldered the fuse onto the small circuit board. So there was no way to replace that 5 cent fuse without using a soldering iron and wick. demolition pump / demolition gun. This is Hakko 2019. You should be able to. Some sort of hot-swappable socket should be an easy addition here. I also did a little research and found other people who had to replace this fuse and broke the copper pins on the small circuit board. cause people to scratch the circuit board to make direct contact with the circuit board markings. It's crazy how this product is rated so highly.
