We had such a nice response from the pinside community on the FX-888D and the 808 Desolder Gun that we decided to run another “group buy” for the pinsiders.
Some of you over the last month have asked about the Hakko FX-601 Adjustable Temp Solder Iron. With the extra long 6ft cord, this is a nice portable unit to take on the road or get into places that just can’t be gotten to with a bench top station. The FX-601 is not some cheap wire wound stick. This is a professional grade piece with a ceramic heating element and adjustable temperature up to 1004°F. This baby will be up to temperature in under 20 seconds and give you consistant, reliable heat. This comes standard with a 5mm chisel tip. Some other popular accessories you might also consider include:
105-TL-T19B/P .5mm conical tip
105-TL-19D24P 2.4mm chisel tip
105-TL-0605MP Hot Sock for the solder iron
113-AC-20FTPK 20ft spool of Indium 60/40 solder .032” 21AWG
