Aixun T380: The Ultimate Microsoldering Tool or Waste of Money?

Are you in the market for a soldering iron? Is your budget about $100? Well you’ll want to check this one out. The Aixun T380 soldering iron comes with a T210 or T115 handle and it is battery powered! That’s right, it’s portable!
Although at my shop, we don’t need the portability, it can still be used full time while connected to the charger & use it as a normal soldering iron.
This 80W Solder Iron is claimed to last about 40 min when soldering continuously at 400C.
So in this video, we put it up to a test. I use it to prep a Samsung S22 Ultra CPU Board & Chip to see how well it does at prepping the pads, wicking them flat and removing underfill.
Watch the full video to see the final result!

What did you score this soldering iron for the 4 tests in the video? Let me know below 👇

[@haliimaaxmed]

do you get flu jesse i feel a change in your voice wish you quick recovery bro, we love you💗💓

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

Thank you! Yes, I am still recovering from a cold, so you can hear it in my voice in the video 🤧

[@javieraleman2989]

Great video! I picked up an Aixun T3B a while ago to use T210 and T115 and it’s been GREAT. My only complaint is the lack of tip styles. All I can ever find is the same I,J,and K tips. They show a bunch of on the website but no one seems to carry them so I bit the bullet and ordered a few JBC tips and they have been perfect for me.

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

Yeah you have to get JBC C210 and C115 tips if you want other types

[@rickoneill4343]

Been watching this brand grow for a while. Wish they had these back when repair was booming.

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

It's a JC brand, so they're not new in the repair industry 🙌

[@rickoneill4343]

@@VCCBoardRepairs oh yeah I know. But I remember when I was in business all these great value units were not like they are now. You were lucky to have a TS100 or a hakko. I had a Metcal and it coat an arm and a leg like JBC. Amscope was just becoming popular. And microscope cams were mostly usb c. High quality but so much lag.

[@BirdManPhil]

Aixun/JC is an amazing company. Im waiting for more information about the 6 tool station they are talking about releasing late this year that will support micro hot air pencil, desoldering pump and more.

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

That sounds pretty cool!

[@temyraverdana6421]

Thanks for video review, very useful. I have a question: have you measure the voltage between the solder tip and ground? I have seen some time a residual 3/5 volt on tip Thanks and see you next

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

From the handle to the tip, no voltage. Unless i'm measuring wrong

[@SURGE101]

Thanks for the great review, definitely going to order one. Stayed away from aixun stations after I had a bad experience with the aixun t3a, it kept restarting after you remove the handle from the stand and would go into like a bootloop making it unusable. It would work with some tips but bootloop on others, the screen would go blank and then restart. But after see your video on this one, I’m definitely going to give this station a go. Thanks for the share Jesse.

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

Awesome! Can't beat the price too

[@haliimaaxmed]

i give it overall all 8/10 this one ,can you make it a review for AIFEN A9 PRO jesse it has one of the best reviews on the internet, i want to buy it i would like to know it from you if it good or bad

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

I dont like that style of soldering iron setup. it's a big bulky iron that will take up lots of space near your bench

[@haidermobilerepair]

Nice 😊

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Godunjoify]

I give it a 6,5.

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

6.5 is not bad lol

[@rasungod0]

TS100, TS101, Pinecil can run off a battery already. Pinecil is $26 the others are $70.

[@rasungod0]

What a piece of chit. The one in your video is by comparison.

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

But are they any good?

[@itguru4989]

Desperately bad review - you can see that the man has nothing to say about soldering station - first half of the review he turned soldering station over in his hands, and the other half of the review showed him soldering

[@VCCBoardRepairs]

What information did I leave out that made this a bad review?
