Thanks! I’m now convinced buying a HAKKO iron from a reputable dealer is the way to go. The extra you pay is cheap insurance.

In order to fix the soldering on the board, you'll need a second iron.

Aren’t T15 and T12 tips basically the same thing, just a different naming convention depending on region?

Duidelijk verhaal dit verklaart ook de 300 euro prijs verschillen. Boycotten die Chinese markt je moet zo goed opletten. Als leek waarschuwde 300 euro prijsverschil al dat er iets niet deugt. Bedankt voor deze verheldering.

Someone must stop chinese to destroy market. Buy Japanese if you want quality
