Finally a long overdue upgrade to my soldering iron setup. The Hakko 936 has treated me well since 2009 but it's finally time for something new!

I've had my FX-888D for 12 years now. Super Solid Station.

That’s great to hear!

Been running 888D for a while. Top notch! Thanks for letting folks know about it!

@Mangorille 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comment. Been great so far and hoping it will give me 14+ years of continued service like its predecessor.

I bought my Hakko FX-888D 9 years ago and still using every day without any problem.

Good to hear!

I would of went with a T-12 system where you can change the tips on the fly, They heat up way quicker than these. But I do like the simplicity of just up/down for heat controls, It would be a great introduction to soldering iron. Newer ones even have clocks really 99% of the people have zero need for a clock. Newer ones have setting for each tip you insert because each tip is different thickness of metals. If you simple T12 LED versions, If you want complex feature rich go for the T12 OLED. A few simple hacks like a proper earth ground is easy to do and usually not done in these T-12's, its a simple solder of a wire to the case or connector usually fixes it.

It's my favorite iron. When I first saw it, I couldn't believe how fast it got hot compared to the old technology back then. It's a very reliable work horse it still lives on my bench because of the form factor. Excellent factory support for parts and replacements. Although I don't dont use much nowadays I still keep it around as my back up.

@Mangorille 3 месяца назад

Agree, been great and you can get so many different tips for it

Top stuff. (Have one, and it's just awesome). Good job Hakko.

Thanks for the comment. Still liking this new version of the Hakko.

@NewWorldFilm Месяц назад

Just ordered this thing right before finding out about the new version dagnabbit! However, comparing the instructions pdf for each one, this "old" version with buttons actually seems less confusing to me. Besides, the new version only comes with a silver iron stand so unless you get the silver kit your stand won't match the station. Also, good old fashioned buttons always seem to hold up better over time in my experience.

@Mangorille Месяц назад

I came from a station that had an encoder wheel, I actually like the buttons more now. I usually only need 3 temperatures anyway so the buttons let me get there fairly quickly.

@LehtusBphree2flyFPV 9 месяцев назад

Does this not have sleep mode?I was looking at this and wanted to see if it had Sleep mode like my old one

@Mangorille 9 месяцев назад

Unfortunately no sleep mode, you can program a low temperature in one of the presets and use that as an "idle" temp (I used 320 degrees in the video).

@kiwichess 5 месяцев назад

I just don't get why to swap to similar tips when now there are c210 and c245 now? Or at least T12

@Mangorille 5 месяцев назад

All depends on the types of things you are soldering. I need to have at least two tips, a big one for soldering power leads (Speed Controller) and a small one for tiny wires (Flight Controller). The big heads retain more heat so they make soldering large wires a lot easier and with a better result.

@acoustic61 6 месяцев назад

Pretty sure T18 tips fit 936 iron too.

@Mangorille 6 месяцев назад

It depends on what type of iron your 936 is using. Mine has the 908 iron which uses different tips (900L tips). I know from experience, I bought the T18 by accident before and they didn’t fit.

very unintuitive system by the looks of it, even cheapo ones have temp up/down controls

@Mangorille 3 месяца назад

I thought so too initially but I find it works fine when in the preset mode. I understand the new version will have the encoder wheel again.

@squidgyrock 3 месяца назад

@@Mangorille yeah I think I will wait for that one, sometimes you can over-complicate things. often physical controls are the quickest way. for me if I'm designing something I ask myself, is it quicker and more user-friendly to do it this way, yes or no, if not then it is a worse solution imo.

@Mangorille 3 месяца назад

@@squidgyrock For sure, it is way more intuitive to just spin an encoder.

@acoustic61 Месяц назад

@@Mangorille The original FX888 did not use a rotary encoder. Was an old fashioned potentiometer. Which worked fine IMO. Simple is better.

@Mangorille Месяц назад

@@acoustic61 Never had any issues after many many years.
