Operation: This is a 220V, 30W unit. It is a very versatile & effective tool, & works extremely well. Has good suction power. I have reverse engineered the circuit. Here is how it works. a) When Unit is powered, the mains AC power is applied to the heater-element (230V, 0.137A, 30W, 1.67Kohm). b) When the PushButton switch ("PBS") is pressed, mains rectified DC (thru a bridge) is applied to the solenoid coil (162ohms, 1.4A, 325W). This is a huge (325W) heating power which will burn out the solenoid coil if left long. c) Fortunately, it is applied only for a fraction of second (~0.1 secs), even if the "PBS" is pressed & held. This is because, due to the huge magnetic power, the vaccum plunger is pulled in quickly with a thud-sound, and the spring-loaded-switch (SLS) at the top-end of the unit, is mechanically pushed open from bottom. d) Once this "SLS" opens, the High current (1.4A, 325W) thru the solenoid is removed, and instead a small holding current of 0.125A only is passed thru it. This is achieved by an ingenious circuit wherein the heater-coil (1.67Kohm) is now inserted in series with the solenoid coil. e) Due to this the solenoid-coil gets a lower holding current, which keeps and holds the plunger in position at top, against the spring power, without heating it up. f) When u release the "PBS", the above holding current is also removed, and the plunger returns back down due to spring power & spits out the sucked solder. g) Because of this ingenious (& yet simple) circuit, the PBS can be pressed & held longer without fear of burning out the solenoid coil. h) But due to any problem, if the top "SLS" switch does not open, then the 1.4A/325W current thru solenoid is not interrupted, and it heats up tremendously, and eventually burning out the solenoid, if you keep the PBS pressed & held. by Bhishmar, Tvm, India.

[@aleksandarac3908]

Can you please explain me how to connect wires on the board with rectifier diodes, that goes from the switch? My tool is broken (one of the diodes burnt), and when I disassemble it, I broke all four colored wires from that small PCB, and I don't know how to reconnect them... :-( I understand that I need to have permanent power for heater, but what confuses me is how to put in series the heater and the solenoid when I press the button. Thanks in advance!

[@aleksandarac3908]

solved ;-)

[@jacksonroad9263]

Did I see a FBR🤔

[@lpjunction]

The is a very good design, now I would order one and hack it out. Many thanks to your idea. To complete the hacking, i) connect the ground to the metal part of the solder iron.

[@alexwinger]

Mine is not working well, but by reading your circuit description, the holding current is not enough because i am using 120V, and maybe that is why it doesn't heat well to melt the solder. So in order to make it work fine, maybe i just have to change the heating element to something with half the resistance?

[@rj7855]

The diameter of the wire for mains does not matter, it's the current draw that dictates the necessary wire thickness. In the case of this soldering iron the current draw is 1/8 of an amp (30w @ 240V) even jumper wire can take that amount of current.

[@whoisme678]

If the elements burn out unlike a soldering iron, they cant be replaced. Mine has burnt out. You also have to be careful when cleaning the solder from out of main body. If you are not careful, twisting the cap at the heating element end can result on the heating element wires being twisted and broken.

[@titantim]

I got this exact device, and unfortunately, the heating element broke after just a couple minutes of use. There was a popping noise, and then the iron eventually went cold. The sucking functionality still works though, which is a little strange. It's a shame because I was able to remove the solder on one pin fairly easily. I don't think I'll invest in another.

[@elvinhaak]

Well, they work a lot longer if you run them on an inverter.... on 220 V instead. Otherwise they overheat very, very fast indeed. You can actually see the glow during one of the last parts of the video.

[@rguptaca]

If you plug it into a watt meter you'll know it has reached operating temperature when the reading stops dropping. I have all my bench tools run through a watt meter so I know when something might have been left on. When I set it up my soldering iron did not have an LED but it did have a switch so it wasn't easy to know if it was on or when it was ready to use. I just used what I had lying around at the time.

[@MrMurphyprecht]

Don't want to teach my gran how to suck eggs but you may find the solder move better by applying flux and for older joints reflow with some new solder before desoldering

[@GasNBullets]

Take a dremel tool with a cutting wheel and slice a notch into 1 spot on the tip. It will give an air vent hole so it wont hammer the solenoid and make it easier to use.

[@stefanvonstratenfinne9128]

It works even better if you add some flux to the soldering points, and/or some new tin When the component are gone use a braid to clean the last up with if you going to use the board. But Yes.. a Branded pump cost 5-6 times as much or even more so for the moderate user it's a good choise.

[@davidhaney1394]

You want to use flux and reflow the solder , then its brilliant !

[@MikeDesertHunterHale]

A little bit of FLUX on the connectors will make it so you don't need to heat the parts up as much, you won't run the risk of ruining them!

[@basvandersluis5662]

And a bit of fresh solder, to make it even easier.

[@richardmellish2371]

To the best of my belief it is illegal to supply this product in the UK, not only because it has neither a protective earth connection nor apparently double or reinforced insulation between the mains and the accessible metal, but also because the US type of mains plug.

[@IberianCraftsman]

You can use an infrared temperature sensor to tell the temperature

[@RabbitHoleLabs]

That "earthing wire" may be fine for ESD purposes. It is likely a very slightly conductive polymer plastic - probably equivalent to some mega ohms for the whole length of it. Should dissipate static electricity quite well. Arguably, that could be better/safer than a hard ground - say, if the iron tip touches a live mains wire for instance.

[@neiliewheeliebin]

The weak point is the weak spot welded bracket the shaft/tip screws onto, once that lets go the internal metal tube breaks in half with it

[@kinhthien-os3yl]

i used a 30w lead extractor almost like that. 30w is not enough to melt the lead completely. very difficult to use. and if you are in a country with lower temperature then the wattage ratio must be increased.

[@apsenpai8086]

i have the same like yours,but now the selonoid got problem sometimes stuck, the cooper contact point at rear was touching the supply wire when it moving and scrub the insulation.. i dig a new hole then wiring a new path and not touch the contact. i like this pump make my job done but the safety need to be fix by manufcturer..

[@Bodragon]

(3:12) - You say that you are *_"not an electrical electrician",_* and that's absolutely fine. But I would just like to say that if anyone is considering hiring an electrician, that the best type of electricians are the electrical ones. You can't beat electrical electricians for general level of their safety practices, and your own peace of mind. Remember folks, if you need any electrical work doing, an electrical electrician is way, way superior in all aspects than your common or garden, ordinary, bog-standard, electrician. I mean, I shudder to think of the possible implications, but an ordinary electrician is just not electrical and is a danger to us all. >

[@ncc74656m]

Wowee! Thanks so much for the great in depth review on this unit. I need one myself, but haven't gotten around to that yet and came looking for just this review and teardown. Thanks for the comments as well on safety concerns. If I get this unit now, I know to watch the cabling and such.

[@diyelectronics9263]

Hi, I would like to ask you for a small favor if possible. When disassembling my desoldering iron, which is the same as yours, the four cables that go from the tip and the switch to the motherboard came loose and I don't know how they were soldered. Could you tell me or send me an image? and thank you very much for your videos keep it up (sorry for my English I'm from Spain)

[@DLTX1007]

about the heating elements smoking. Yeah, kinda usual. Nichrome elements would smoke a bit when new.

[@DeeegerD]

Just like a new toaster :)

[@kittyfanatic1980]

ALL soldering irons weither cheap or expensive will smoke for the first few runs. Sometimes its enough to think its on fire but its normal. Even used to specify in the manuals of ones you got from radio shack or the like.

[@hoggif]

Nice review, good that you used is as well. Not too much an improvement over a manual sucker I think. I think electrical equipment like that should be better insulated or earthed. I have been hooked up to a cheap soldering iron as a kid (mussle cramps in my hand kept me on it) and it was not fun. It could have ended a lot worse as well. I also take a part everything cheap that is connected to mains.

[@dassarullen]

Hi! I bought one myself and it worked..kinda! Had it powered on for a good thirty minutes. Since no stand really fits I had it hanging by a toolhook on a wall. While fiddling around with something I accidently lifted my eyes and the blue casing had melted becouse of heat and gravity! Really dangerous tool!! I ended up buying a desoldering pump with double action diaphrame instead.

[@DJMarkGyro]

I had 2 of these blue Chinese desoldering pump... The 1st one broke after month , I desolder not more than 50 eproms 27c322. The 2nd broke after 1 hour !!!!!!! Never again ! Don't waste your money....I got now the Hakko FR300

If your unsure of cheap ebay stuff read there feedback or buy a well known make that you trust, most stuff from China is cheap but you get what you pay for

[@gettingpast4391]

Trying to decide between this and a $250 Hakko the choice was clear. I am now free of that spare $250 but I won't need to hit every pin 4 times.

[@ulfrinn8783]

my big problem with these is they're only 30w, making them functionally useless for something with a big ground plane.

[@nexxusty]

They're useless for more reasons than that. Try doing any microelectronics with this. No chance, doesn't even touch the solder.

[@Studulikeuk]

I purchased one of these a short while ago and on first use the element caught fire. I got a refund and purchased a station version and never looked back.

[@neiliewheeliebin]

Any of the soldering stations are better than this rubbish thing the tip isn't even earthed

[@laurentdelannoy962]

Hello how the rear part can be dismantled, one of the two power cables seems to be welded, there is play and the pump does not heat up. I unscrewed the black cache and I don't know how to go further. Thank you in advance for your return

[@laurentdelannoy962]

I managed to remove the base and re-weld it connect the wire in question. It was not easy, in particular to put the two springs back on

[@robjasmin3197]

should always solder over factory solder using softer solder before desoldering..old factory solder is usually harder and goesn't flow

[@nor4277]

I notice it had a u.s. plug on it which it wouldnt work in the u.s. because the desoldering pump is rated at 220 volts in there adds , you are right about bad electrical connection on the insides .thanks for shareing

[@candlemasus]

i have one like this but my don't heat like before . how can this be fixed with a resistor or somenthing????

[@mystarstudios]

For the price I'd buy one. I find the manual solder suckers very cumbersome and slow. It also takes me two hands to push down the plunger. Unfortunately this one from China is only available in 220 volts. So I'll be looking at probably a much more costly Hakko. Nice demo thou :)

[@AyushkaPartohap]

Is there some special technique to using this tool??? I bought it and tried to remove a dual pot. It seems there is always some solder left that keeps the component from coming off. Any help appreciated.

[@goofykl9]

[@cxamer]

I have a silly question, I bought this exact unit, but should have bought a 110V, The seller will not let me return it. Do you have any tips on how I could convert this unit to operate on 110V? Is it just the Heater core I would need to replace, or other components to?

[@robert574]

Good Job, thanks for the video. This seems to be one step up from the soldering irons that have the spring cocked solder sucker built in with more volume.

[@BLOCKsignallingUK]

I have had a couple of these. They work reasonably well to start off with, but then the contacts at the back of the solenoid fail. They are a pretty dangerous design from an electrical perspective and would fail UK electrical regulations. I would not buy one.

[@kaylaandjimbryant8258]

sounds no better than the ECG rubber bulb iron. At least replacement tips are widely available for the ECG. I keep a selection though of tools for the purpose, and pick based on need. I have desoldering wick (various), a couple of spring loaded hand pumps, the ECG rubber bulb desoldering iron, and a Hakko FR-301. Which I use depends on what needs done, as sometimes a hand pump is the best tool for the job instead of the Hakko for instance (at the cost of the Hakko, and the cost for new tips for it, I kind of only use it when I really need to).

I think the failing part of the unit will be the electromagnet coil, the inrush each time you press the button will take its toll on the coil, especially any weak point within the winding or connections.

[@kuzzuma2527]

mine broke down, im assuming its the magnet that is broken because its still heats up, but when i press the red button, it sucked but it does not go back until i unplug the cable. does anyone have advice to give for me?

[@andrewmcneil]

It’s the solenoid coil you can pick up a replacement from ebay for around £3. Had to replace mine last year.

[@nemesis8571]

Thank you for the teardown video of this device, Yes, It's CHEAP but does the job quite well once you get the knack of correct position & timing to press the button. Being in the 240v~ 50Hz UK environment, I was a little shocked at the close proximity of the heat coil & the outer metal sheath, that, action was required to make it a class 1 appliance by adding a small earth wire routed through from end to end, one end soldered into a loop connects to a provided threaded hole on the metal sheathed support bracket (I had to find a screw to match the threaded hole, It's the same size as the sheath support screw) & the other soldered to the earth wire of the new 0.75mm earth cable & sleeved, neutral & live soldered as existing & fitted with a 3Amp fused UK plug. Note: 1/ The mains cable I fitted was lying around the workshop, I THINK it's 0.75mm, It's the same size flex used in 3 core table lamps (class 1) 2/ I used the green wire of a 6 core flexible alarm cable to run end to end but any small will do as long as it will go through the rubber tube. 3/ Leave a little spare earth cable in the handle area. 4/ The FIDDLY BITS position the sleeved earth under the circuit board & position the 3 cores outa the way of the shut-off contact. (good Idea to put a thinish piece of plastic/rubber over the sharp part in the centre to protect the cables from shorting) There will be many UK residents using appliances with a NON UK plug attached, this means NO PROTECTION FUSE what these devices rely on is a fused converter adapter BUT, many sold/supplied DON’T have a fuse in them either (mine didn’t) so easy too ignore & lethal too, BE SAFE check your adapters. There are many selling replacement tips on fleebay at ridicules prices for one of each available tips (Pores & Rough Hole) However, there's 1 selling 10 x pores or rough for £2.39 Inc. pp, paste this into fleebay uk search & look for it in the list 10pcs Metal Electric Vacuum Suction Iron Head Rough Hole Solder Sucker Nozzle Regards

[@brianflanagan9509]

Just got mine in the mail and the magnet doesnt seem to be holding - I hold the button and it repeatedly sucks and releases like a machine gun - just wondering if I can repair it as I won't be buying another.. Any ideas? Thx!

[@alfredodaguer6295]

Hello there Brian, the reason why is doing that is because the tip is getting obstructed, you need to lean it a bit to the side so it can get a bit of air and suck the solder, by the way is it getting hot enough to melt the solder? mine is not melting the solder, it does get worm but no luck. have left it for 30min and sill not hot enough......

[@brianflanagan9509]

Hi, thanks for replying - actually the problem is worse - I live in asia and the voltage is 110v, - it needs over 200v! so it isnt getting enough current for the magnet or the heater - the aliexpress page didnt note this but another seller did- are you in a 110v country? if so, that's why it's not getting hot enough - gotta buy a step up transformer for it now....

[@alfredodaguer6295]

That is correct, that is my problem too, thanks for the tip friend

[@mikaelmcleod4698]

I had the same problem with the machine gun effect. It sucks off the solder then immediately sprays it all over your PCB. I used it for one project to remove a few resistors.

[@Bodragon]

(3:30) - You say that *_"these wires do look a little bit thin to be carrying mains electricity."_* Actually, the fact that it's 240 volt mains has got nothing to do with the size of the conductors (wires). Have you seen the size of the wire that is connected to the starter motor of your car ? That's just 12 volts. No. What matters is the current. Now the heating element of this desoldering tool is rated (or at least advertised) as being 30 watts. How many amps is 30 watts at 240 volts ? Easy. Power, (in Watts) is defined as the voltage multiplied by the current or amperage. Basically, P (power in Watts) = I (current) x V (voltage). Therefore, the current I = power (P) over voltage (V) The reason we need to know the current is because it is the current , not the voltage, that determines the minimum size of allowable wire. So, we have the current, I in amps (A) = power, P in watts (W) over the voltage, U in volts (V). (Yes, I know it's confusing. Voltage or potential difference is represented as U, volts are represented as V. Please, don't ask me why.) ( I = P / U == A = W / V ) - this is correct SI terminology. But most British electricians would write the formula as: I = P / V (I know, it's all kinda screwed up). Anyway... I = 30 / 240 I = 0.125A (amperes) So the current is 125 milliamps. The minimum size of cable to carry 125 milliamps is actually so small that even a single strand of that very small wire you see there would be quite sufficient. Remember, it's the current, not the voltage which is the deciding factor when it comes to wire sizes. All the best. >

[@truemorpheus]

The perfect tool to remove some pads!

[@truemorpheus]

It's not a good idea to twist a component off the board, not in a violent fashion anyway. The method of removing of SMD capacitors using a gentle back and forward motion until the metal in the pins fatigues and the component drops off the board can be useful when you don't want to apply heat because the board is too fragile or because the corrosive electrolyte from the capacitor( yes if you are heating a leaked SMD capacitor the electrolyte will start to spew all over the board) will get in an inconvenient place (under a component that is impossible to remove - a fragile screen ...). A tool like this Chinese crap in the video is dangerous because you can't control the amount of heat you apply to the board If you do want to repair boards there are much better cheap Chinese solutions

[@Bodragon]

(1:15) - Whispery bits ? You said *_"whispery bits"_* Now, *_wispy bits_* would make sense. *_"Wispy"_* is a proper word. It's in the dictionary . And *_"Wispy bits"_* would be a perfect description of what you are showing. As would *_whiskery bits_* But *_whispery bits ?_* Er, no. Do those bits whisper to you ? What do they whisper ? Pray tell... I find this really interesting because I have noticed that Yorkshire folk tend to say *_"slippy"_* when they really mean *_"slippery"._* In fact, *_slippy_* really isn't a proper word inasmuch as used in the sense of a slippery surface. The proper usage of the word *_slippy_* refers to a potters slip. That viscous diluted, watery clay stuff. So, it seems that not only do the Yorkshire folk get the words *_slippy_* and *_slippery_* back to front. They also conflate the words *_wispy_* and *_whispery_* also mixed up but in the opposite way. Well, they do say: *_there's nowt so queer as folk._* Lovely video, anyway. Got a thumb's up from me. >

My version of "pimple popping" so satisfying watching this.... yes I need help... ;)

[@NatureAndTech]

Very good video.

[@Tele3C]

no good,thanks,i have save my money

[@rocketman221projects]

I wouldn't trust a soldering iron with a mains powered heating element. If the insulation fails, the tip could become energized. A good iron has a low voltage element powered from a transformer. If you are going to use that thing, at least ground the tip and use it on an RCD protected circuit.

omg what a ripoff. i am glad i saw this video. i thought that was a constant pump.

[@danijel124]

Erich Stein I also thought that xd

[@Dr.Stein99]

I do not understand why there isn't a small continuous pump. That cylinder is so large, and the solenoid spring is so fast - that volume of air must be needed at that speed in order to be effective. I do not think that thing can stay steady in your hand if the mass of the piston is swinging back and fourth, can't hold it steady. In any case. I'm just going to hook external vacuum up to my cheap-o soldering iron with a metal filter....

You lot expect a pump version for £20.00............

[@Manufacturing5.0]

You sir have trust issues. I learned a lot but laughed even more.

[@gromby783]

No.

[@NinoJoel]

This thing is a liquid solder spitting fire hazard.... Just amazing china xD

[@kaylaandjimbryant8258]

The principle is sound, and keep in mind, that with a hand pump, you still have to clear the pump after every use, and the workspace can get quite covered in tiny solder bits when using a hand pump. The problem I see here is that it spits it every time you release the button, but with a hand pump you chose when and where to clear the pump.

What a piece of crap, thanks for the heads up
