JCD 8898 Solder Station Hot Air Gun Heater - Unboxing, Review and Testing

[@kpelectronics]

Hello dear, I got same and I would like if posible that you measure the heating element ohms or volts. I broke mine and new ones don't work properly.

[@TasteTheCode]

146 Ohms between pins 1 and 3. None of the pins show anything with pin 2. When you say that they don't work properly, what do you mean?

[@kpelectronics]

@@TasteTheCode I mean, they don't work at all, I got no voltage in iron outlet pins. As you mentioned, one of the pins is protection earth, only two are for feeding the iron gun.

@@TasteTheCode I don't know if is posible for you to measure that voltage wich I think gotta be made with the charge conected

[@kpelectronics]

@@TasteTheCode 146 ohms, thank you, I think that's the right heating element that I bought then. Its a matter of the device as I see, I tried another triac but I'll try to change the microcontroller and see what happens.

[@TasteTheCode]

Hmmm without the right firmware, changing the microcontroller will not help. What is the issue that you are having?

mine broke in 3months

[@TasteTheCode]

What happened to it? Mine still works.

@@TasteTheCode the soldering part of the station completely died.

[@TasteTheCode]

Mmmm that's weird. Check that the connection are all good.

[@sh0t734]

@@TasteTheCode EVERYTHING is good. It uses cheap components inside.

That's sad. Let's see how much mine will last.
