youyue vs atten
« on: August 24, 2014, 05:16:52 pm »
After watching the review of the atten rework hot air gun, i searched for it on ebay. I found yet another clone of the thing, made by "youyue". Which is also 10 bucks cheaper than the atten (xd).

Does anyone have experience with the youyue compared to the atten? I found a teardown here which shows the same problem an atten had once (live mains connected to guns metal parts)...

Greetings, Leon

Chinese brand names are pretty much arbitrary. You can get the same product under 10 different names.  Check this for example, it is sold as both Youyue and Attend.

I just bought an identical W.E.P. 858D for C$68.
Seems to work well.
