✖ Weller WHA900 hot air rework station: http://amzn.to/2yiBEIA
👉 Both of these stations are less powerful, more expensive, and less featured than the Quick 861DW.
● We have reviewed the Quick here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChujyTV-HME
● We sell the Quick here: https://store.rossmanngroup.com/quick-861dw.html ●
✖ We did not have the Quick available at the time of this review. If you are looking for a hot air station to purchase in 2017 or later, I would not consider the Hakko or Weller options.
I have recommended the FR-801 for the longest time, but it is now discontinued and unavailable. Hakko's successor to the FR-801 is terrible for many reasons I will discuss in this video, and actually costs more than the Weller WHA900.
