Review on Efficient and Safe American HAKKO FR301-03/P ESD Portable Desoldering Tool with Precise Temperature Control in °F/°C by Johnny Burns

I was old hardened Hand solder sucker Copper braid It took forever to remove the components. I've removed the fuses that were soldered in, but to no avail. When the Hakko arrived it took about a minute to heat up and about 10 seconds to siphon off the solder and remove the fuses. yes fuses However, I clogged the nozzle due to removing a large amount of solder. However, it is quite easy to clean the nozzle. Simply heat up and insert the cleaning pen through the nozzle. Remove the cleaning pen and press the vacuum button to bring the melted solder into the collection chamber. I used to hate soldering components but now with Hakko it's so easy. I like fast heating, solder suction, easy cleaning. I had no problems with the included mount, although it gets quite hot. I believe Hakko also minimizes thermal damage to components due to the speed of the desoldering process. I wish I had bought this sooner.
