Hello, I have never used or owned a proper soldering hot air gun, but since I repair a lot of things and electronics, the time has come for me to repair and substitute chips and things you can only work correctly with a hot air gun. Until now I was able to repair everything with my amazing soldering iron station, that I bought by recommendation of one user here and I couldn't be more happy with the purchase.
Now... since I have my new soldering iron station and my old soldering iron, I want one hot air gun that doesn't come with a soldering iron, as that is not needed plus makes the station bulkier than necessary. My budget is $50-130, and I see the sweet spot where a lot of stations are is about $100.
First you have these amazing small design (actually my soldering station looks exactly like that)m but it's only $50... so I don't know how good it is...
Then you have a lot of offer in the bulkier more expensive ones, $90-110, but I don't know if that translates to better quality tool...s
Here's a bunch of them:
Lot of prices, lot of designs... Ideally I want something like the first one, really small and neat, but of course, only if it's good. Also, one of the reasons I bought a new soldering station was efficiency and technology of the heating element. I had a station that was so slow with technology from the '70s or even older, and the new one is SO FAST and the efficiency and technology is ages ahead. I don't mind spending a bit more in a station if the technology or efficiency and design is simply better.
Thank you!
