5.0 out of 5 stars Reliable quality for an excellent price
I use this in a professional automotive environment. After vowing to never use a gas powered iron ever again due to reliablility issues I tried this. Now I have the temperature control that I enjoy on my home bench iron. Great item.
5.0 out of 5 stars It works really well
Really nice item easy to use,I would recommend.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great value but temperature control isn't too accurate
A really solid, affordable little kit! I've just it for a bunch of drone work with no problems.However it's not a true digital temperature - the digital display would make you think it's showing you a 'live temperature' since the numbers gradually climb up and down. however I don't think there's an actual temperature sensor and this is just an animation.I found overall I needed to run it a bit hotter than the desired temperature (checked with a thermal camera) but it's stable and works great.
5.0 out of 5 stars Its easy to use, and its all there!
This is a review of the YIHUA 928D-III Model SK (65W with blue handle). Unfortunately it is so easy to confuse this with the 110W version with a red handle, as both carry the same YIHUA 928D-III number. It's important to know which when buying tips as the size is different. This SK model uses tips with an inner diameter of 4mm and outer diameter of 6.5mm. The tips for the 110W are much bigger because the heating element in the 110W iron is larger, so wont fit this SK 65W model. It would be more helpful if the item number(s) were different. I don't solder regularly, so I wouldn't call myself an expert, but never the less bought this to replace an old soldering iron bought from Tandy in the 70's as I had big soldering job coming up. Thought it was past due. This kit comprises decent value for money key components that get the job done without any issues. As recommended elsewhere and as is common with many starter kits, I purchased some additional tips and ditched the lead free solder supplied in the kit. I'll rely instead on my usual 60:40 tin/lead solder that I find easier to use. The case it comes in is well made and quite substantial and I find there's room inside for extra solder and a few extra accessories that didn't come with the kit. Very Happy with my purchase.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product
I like this soldering iron very easy to use, temp control works well and very well made, hard to find a bad point at this point.
1.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely horrible build quality
The tempature reading is completly wrong, the dot stops flashing to say it has reached the desired tempature of 305c before even heating up...The LCD screen was also not on correctly and fell off while in use. The text with the logo on the side started to come away from simply holding the iron and the rubber grip doesn't stay in place and just slides up and down.Avoid, cheap rubbish.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fast and easy
Happy with the product and accessories, good value I'd say
4.0 out of 5 stars Temperature control
Bought for soldering photo etched parts used in modelling. First soldering iron temperature failed, contacted the supplier and they replaced the unit fee of charge. You are only as good as how you deal with problems, this supplier is good. Iron works well, grip gets a little warm, but that's to be expected. Could wrap with a neoprene collar but as only used for short spells, probably will not bother. Needed a very fine soldering tip, but they only come as part of a pack of 4 other tips, should consider doing with packs containing single size tips.
