I've been using this device for 3 or 4 years now and it's been flawless. The only issue was that it achieved speeds 80mbps down/50mbps up. I replaced it with ATL18 with speeds 150mbps down and 60up. Still it's wonderful device in 2025 as it can power another device with poe out.

How do you clean the flux? I notice that some of them are no-clean flux.. which are dificult to clean.. Thanks

4:18 Those couple of series inverters aren't for improving the driving power to the MOSFET. They are used for improving the transition speed.

Is it possible to order 10 of these boards from you?

Thank you for the detailed video! I'm an old auto technician just getting into the world of small electronics repair and I found this information very useful!! 30 years of working on broken vehicles has left me with a broken body. This kind of work is actually very rewarding and doesn't hurt. (until I touch the damn soldering iron. again)

A big thank you. I don't congratulate Ford engeneers!

Lifesaver

This guy sounds like he could be on LBC, excellent narration and good recordings, the video's are tops ;)

Thanks for the excellent videos, wish I discovered your channel way sooner, but now I have and all is good.

Hi. Do you have a PCB design that has incremental SMD component size pads from small to big? Or, am I thinking of another channel? I think it would be a helpful tool for me to learn the sizes, mainly for SMD resistors and capacitors. If you don't, I guess that will just be more motivation for me to learn KiCad or some other PCB CAD software.

Super helpful video. I popped open my NAD T778 which has become a paperweight to take a look. It has 5 of these amplifier modules and a bunch of the caps have popped. Thought I might be capable of repairing it myself but it appears there’s also something wrong at the power stage too 😮. Expensive lesson learnt buying NAD.

I know there are several videos on this unit and this video is 5 years old, but these are still being sold. There's a couple of things which aren't mentioned here: The banana jacks are 4.2 mm and not 4mm. One common fix is to replace these with your own. Also there's an issue with the transformer at 9:10 being bent up and making contact above it, shorting the ground and negative out. The fix is to bend the mounting tabs correctly and/or apply some insulation tape to the body of the transformer to prevent shorts. Something to check if you buy one.

Does it have the same issue as the earlier models? Where they had a power surge when the iron tip connected to ground?

Can you recommend a power charger and cable to go with it ?

Does it have the power surge problem when tip is grounded?

Do you have a recommendation for a best JBC style soldering station you’ve reviewed?

@sdgelectronics hey. do you recommend gt90? or there is better option? between this and hakko fx888dx or fx971 or ersa?

hi is it possible to download all the files includes the software and shooping list to build it ?

Two years since the review: any changes to your opinion of it?

SILVER!? thats gotta be expensive

Sir my radio Robert I stream 3 internet to radio not on of and wifi not connecting plz help me

How should the transformer wires be installed correctly? The blue one should be in the center?

Hi ?

How is the PC software? Is the refresh rate quick via the USB connection

Hi there , does anyone know the wiring diagram from the crimp connector ? I’m thinking to buy an aftermarket camera and attached to the original wiring loom is that possible? Thanks

I have this with me i want to used it to clear vsc light on toyota Highlander 2008 is not working did i need to pay for it or i don't get the function

Heater broken ? Solution please

I solder like once in a way way long time but I always wanted something better than the basic pen soldering iron so I got me a wireless Micro soldering pen with digital sustainability and it heats real real quick excellent for soldering cellphone microchips! Also upgraded to a 2 to 1 SilverFlo 8586D-III Pro for $42 (Digital hot airflow rework gun + soldering iron handle) with angle nozzles and 8pc straight square and round mm size nozzles! Very temperature accuracy and seems reliable and love it that it's a palm size work station with 3 custom memory presettings and quick digital temp adjustments and sleep mode after 10 mins. of no action! If I decide later in the futures that I want something more professional and doing more and more soldering than the Atten ST-862D or latest or better would be a choice upgrade!

Fantastic review, thank you. A) They should really consider adopting Neutrik XLR type connectors for the power supply bussing. This would also help with the PCB flex as the I/O connectors could be chassis mounted. B) In GTAW equipment nomenclature, what you're calling the collar is a 'gas lense'.

JLCPCB's copper-core PCBs are surprisingly inexpensive. Just got a quote for 225 71mm x 71mm boards for $1.87 each.

You can long press on the CH1 to change from C to F and you can even calibrate it on CH2. Not a very good idea to open it and adjust anything inside ...

What copper board are you usint for testing purpose's? Like the one in this video?

Hi I have a ford kuga with the same reversing camera can I ask how did you get the camera apart as mine keeps get moisture in it.

Does it read odometer tampering details

wich the best sugon 6850 or quick 861dw?

Would this be good for rc connectors like EC5 and tinning 10g wires?

Can anyone tell me if there's any upside or downside to halogen free flux?

Are you looking to try the Thinkscan 689 at all? Would love to see a comparison with the launch.

Is there any way to reduce the internal resistance of a flooded lead acid battery?

Excellent review! Very well detailed!

Hi, thanks for the video. Are you able to tell me exactly what fictions are lost on the pro elite after the two year free update period please?

atten error e08

I found it for 100euros, is it a good option?

Can you tell me what smoke machine you used thank you

hi is it possible to download all yhe files include software to build it ?

Fun Fact - Topnik Żel means just... Flux - Gel :D It's also a product of AG

Hi do you have folders to buid this module ?

Hope your still reading these. Just purchased a T12 (great iron) and did a test with some copper (clad) pennies. I cleaned some in vinegar and tried some that were well tarnished. The 40% rosin fluxes did well soldering to the tarnished ones and all of them were fine on the shiny copper. One outcome though was that the flux pooled on top of each coin and stayed liquid as they were hot, as I cooled them off under a faucet in water, the liquid flux made blobs on the sink that alcohol would not dissolve, except for the rosin fluxes, and was nearly impossible to clean. I also figured that the smoke from the flux was just a vaporized version of the blobs on the sink and you can imagine what that does to coat your nose and lungs. Years ago (don't see it anymore) we used chloroethane nu to clean pcb's after wave soldering (in volume) and distilled the vapor back to liquid. It worked great but also formed acid vapor if it escaped and mixed with water vapor in air. People near it coughed a lot and it corroded everything. Not sure what is a good flux cleaning solvent today. Any ideas?
