Sequre HT140 Portable Hot Tweezers Soldering Station Test & Review C210 And C120 Tips Compatible

[@mainecoonman]

Convinced me to push the button and get myself these hot tweezers at long last. Thanks for reviewing them.

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

I can guarantee you are gonna love this

[@jj74qformerlyjailbreak3]

Speaking as a guy who doesn't have these in his tool collection. Im sold on them.

[@theshemullet]

I ordered one of these after seeing a review on another channel but this has solidified my decision in getting one.

[@evelhorn]

I bought one 4 or 5 days ago after seeing it on EEV, and Dave loved them also

[@Hellhound604]

Have been using soldering tweezers for many years now. Could never understand why they are not more popular. This new one looks quite nice, and if my old set breaks, will certainly gives these a go.

[@PurityVendetta]

I will admit I was a little dubious about the usefulness of this produce but this video has changed my mind.

[@RichRepairs]

Wow that is a really handy looking tool, a game changer even. I’m so tempted to get one myself, but couldn’t justify it 😂, thanks for sharing a good honest review 😊

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

Yeah, I'm gonna buy some of those wide flat C120 tips for it as I think it may be very good on SOIC IC. There are compatible C120 on AliExpress at a more reasonable price

[@suehunt622]

i ordered this from aliexpress because of the things you said about it. i also watched a few other youtubers say good things about it. thank you Richard, i hope they keep sending you stuff, lol. of course you also hope they keep sending you stuff. i haven't seen you use the microscope at the side of you bench for a while. any update on it ? great vids keep em coming.

[@MrKevin920]

I bought their S20 and I fell in love with it over my JBC. A week after I bought the s20 I seen these! I must get these now

[@bulldogge41]

Amen

[@bulldogge41]

Thanks for the multilingual audio track. That's a very cool thing. That would be great for all your videos.

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

Oh regards that, it isn't me doing it. This is a fetaure that KZbin are thinking about rolling out to all creators and I just happened to get chosen as a beta tester.

[@JoeyDoesTech]

Wasn't thinking about purchasing some hot tweezers, now I'm extremely tempted 😂😂 Do I need them? ABSOLUTELY not, but is it a nice thing to have, sure looks like it! Great video 😊

[@Guraba_AzE]

Tomorrow my Ht140 will finally arrive.

[@ianhewitt1858]

awesome game changer 🙂

[@uksuperrascal]

Just a thought, 2 cheep soldering irons and a reshaped metal coat hanger for the spring?

[@pault6533]

I discovered an incompatibility issue @28V. Both my Anker Prime 250W and the HT-140 are PD3.1 and promise 28V mode. The cable Sequre provides is good for 28V too. When the tweezers set to max 28V, turned off, then plugged into the fully charged Anker, it beeps for a second and goes dark. 20V is no problem, so that’s what I’ll use for now - but limited to 100W (instead of 140W.) The lower voltage hasn't posed any usability issues for me. Alternately, I can run at 28V right after changing the max voltage, as long as the unit isn't powered down. Sequre is being very supportive of my concern and is looking into the issue, going as far as to acquire the same power bank and replicating the boot failure! It seems they may need to adjust their unit's parameters to tolerate the Anker's unique & impatient trigger behavior at 28V.

[@Dutch_off_grid_homesteading]

Heya, yes very nice tool maybe for x-mas !!!

[@reneandra9294]

unsoldering troug hole caps is much easier with tweezers, they somtimes just fall off the board. i really enjoy to see how much you like them.

[@mash83]

Been looking for some for a while but reviews on various ones not being so good and price have never quite matched up. Have ordered these minus the included power brick (ordered a 100w one) cheers for the review 👍

[@pault6533]

I see they have several types of tips including chisel, which might be better for IC's. I think I would like these if I could justify it for my hobby - next time I'm using two soldering irons, I will give it some serious consideration. Love it when they give you a nice carry case. Happy for you Richard! See you tomorrow on the live stream.

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

I've found some clones of the C120 wide chisel type tips on AliExpress and I'm gonna by some to see how well they work

[@pault6533]

I just got some HZY brand and they work quite well as replacements . C210-IS. It seems 2.2 ohms +/- 0.1 is the right heating element value. I also obtained the wide 5mm tips from Sequre and they ahould be awesome at removing larger components or multiple lead 2-row devices.

[@Sophie-h5b]

Amazing review 🎉

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

Thank you

[@pmcrisp]

Very nice

[@Dutch-linux]

See Richard I told you lots of times to get hot tweezers !!!!!! should of listen to me LOL

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

I probably should have, This is going to make my life so much easier 😁😆

[@jeisonsanchez4842]

Elvis was looking for something to buy in one of the previous videos. He would have loved this too.

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

@@jeisonsanchez4842 I am sure he would!

[@DimasFajar-ns4vb]

wow and zamzam water

[@hschack]

you can altso use it for THC 2 pin like CAP and resistors both pin heatet up same time 👍

[@KrissBartlett]

very nice i like it to

[@peterbrooks539]

With Aliexpress singles sale price less further US $8 discount of sales over $59 the price comes down to around US $81. A good buy at that price.

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

Then now is the time 😉

[@spunkenhimer]

Anyone know if pinecil OS can be put on these instead of its installed one, I have the pinecil and gotten used to how that os/interface works, just wondering if it would be possible.

[@budgiefish]

Try the tweezers with those pesky smd electrolytics with the plastic bases (of various sizes) :)

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

OK on the live stream tomorrow 17th November 5pm UK time

[@blitzgameplay007]

From Sequre website: "Regarding the EU VAT: Generally, Sequre will prepay the VAT to logistics companies for common products." Have anyone had problems regarding this (EU VAT)? Or customs problems?

[@bulldogge41]

No problem in Germany

[@OneTheAndOnlyOne]

cool! I mean hot :p I want one!

[@Tsjoetenbille]

Desoldering with tweezers is something everyone agrees is quick and easy. But the electronics world is very divided about soldering SMD components with a tweezer. I see you here soldering with the tweezer so you're from the camp, go ahead, no problem... at my work for example it's not done! I use Weller tweezers and they are seen as a desoldering tool and nothing else. Although with my rebellious nature I sometimes use it to put a resistor on it, I always do that out of sight of the main technicians LOL. so, what is your opinion on this? is there a problem if you use tweezers when soldering? The main reason is that this heats up the component too much, and the PCB does not, so that when the tin cools down, you have a stress factor on the joints. I'm curious about your reaction. Greetings from Belgium!

[@Electricworld-1]

Thank you very much excellent gadget.😮

[@uksuperrascal]

Very Nice, But to Expensive at the Moment, Only time and the copy brigade will bring down the Price, So I will wait.

[@raresvintea1]

What soldering station do you use? Tks

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

I have tried many different ones but personally use two soldering stations. KSGER T12 and SugonT26D with C210 handle. I use both for differrent reasons during my repairs and can recommend them. For hot air I use the Quick 861DW. The HT140 now earned it's place and proudly sits beside them.

[@raresvintea1]

@@LearnElectronicsRepair Thanks for answer. Working at the office with oem jbc with c210 and it's a pleasure, ordered now a Aifen with C245 and at home hakko T12. Those tweezers earn my soul for kind of needs at the office. Not cheap but they look to be made well.

[@raresvintea1]

@@LearnElectronicsRepair Have you find good quality clone JBC tips? Or you stick to the OEM?

[@jonsmith5087]

sequre is good stuff - and they go to sleep when you leave inbetween jobs -

[@harrygood4783]

I find the sequre a necessary tool in respect of the precision of it`s ability, you hold the components in their allotted pad space on the board and apply solder, so in business to save time on repairs it is necessary, as a hobbist it`s quesionable, if you can justify the price and you do a fair bit of smd soldering, why not, but you do need to purchase other tips as needed.

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

Well christmas is coming so if someone wants to buy you a present here is a good choice.... much better than socks

[@tbangblack4515]

It looks like it's from ifix it😂😂

[@GregM]

I somewhat vote against these and the irons that come with their power supplies. Vendors say it can do 140W but is ONLY if you expend more money buying another power supply other than the lower-powered one they gave you. On AE these tweezers are $120.99 + $28.99 shipping CAD plus tax which comes out to $160.48 CAD. Similar price from Sequre if Canada Post was not out on strike here. I should not have to buy another power adapter to get the max wattage out of the iron. Sorry

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

CAD $160 is equivalent of €109 so the price is very similar in europe though I live in the Canary Islands which are VAT (sales tax) exempt so I automatically get 21% deducted at checkout on Aliexpress and eslewhere. Price for me would be €90, give or take. I think it is reasonable for Sequre to offer the HT140 with the 65W PSU as an option, then you can decide to buy it with the PSU or not. The only other option would be for them to offer it with a 150W PSU at a higher price. Bear in mind this will run up to 28V 5A = 140W and has a coaxial jack power socket as well as USBC so you can get one of those cheap 24V 5A power supplies like the one I got a few weeks ago from AliExpress, currently €6.70 with free shipping. You can adjust the output voltage on those by a few volts so you could set it near to 28V and get the maximum wattage for less than the bundled 65W costs.

[@grahamnichols1416]

Not for me. Two low cost pencil irons from amazon - £20 job done.

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

In fairness I think you need to try this and then compare it with your two low cost pencil irons before you can make a valued decision. I have also done similar things on previous videos using two soldering irons the same way that you do it but this thing is a game changer and I don't say that lightly

[@pault6533]

@@LearnElectronicsRepair It's a bit frustrating using two soldering irons and not crossing wires or smashing the parts with too much force. The tweezers look like a much more controlled way of going about it. Plus you can be sure not to be imparting ESD to your PCB. I think every PRO should have one.

[@badonrani4059]

Why your language is translated into Indian languages I can not understand anything

[@bulldogge41]

@LearnElectronicsRepair Please turn on the multilingual audio tracks for all your videos. It works very well for the German language

[@LearnElectronicsRepair]

@bulldogge41 I don't have that option at the moment. The multilingual audio tracks is a new feature that KZbin are rolling out, probably to all creators eventually, and I was selected as a beta tester. Hopefully it is something I can control in future as I really do like this.

[@bulldogge41]

@LearnElectronicsRepair Thank you...for the quick answer
