No, uses different screen and mcu.
Also not the sescond one with the tweezers?
Sorry, missed that one. I have no idea what's inside that station.
You might ask the seller for internal pictures?
By coincidence I was reading another thread on the EEVblog forum yesterday and searched on AliExpress for those tweezers. I am not sure if all that is stated in this listing is true, but a seller of an identically looking soldering station (also with Handskit branding) describes the model as version 2.1 and mentions the chip as an stm32 in the specification table:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005027433673.htmlSo, there is a chance that it could be true and DavidAlfas excellent firmware might work.
I Ordered the set. I think in two weeks, we know more

Need to change MCU , Handskit use clone MCU. STM32F103C8T6 , STM32F103CBT6 or CKS32F103C8T6 , CKS32F103CBT6 . I have Handskit tweezers .
Hello, David! I changed the display on my custom station, installed an OLED display with a diagonal of 1.54 inches, i2c interface, ch1116 controller, white - I confirm that it worked immediately, I only had to adjust the screen position along the x axis in the station menu!
If you find any board not in the
board list, please attach a picture!
How can I change the mcu und what I need to buy?
Hello, I have 3 ksger v2.1s stations and, I did tests for detect couterfakes ics on 2 of those stations on the "original" ic that came on the factory pcb, when doing the test to find out if it was fake it gave me the result 20036410, so I bought 3 ic from an Aliexpress seller and 2 from another AliExpress seller, because I imagined that some of the ones that would arrive would be fake, but oh surprise I soldered them all to the boards and I tested them and it showed the value 2003610, i do the test on 6 stm32 chips so i dont know if they are all fake, they are all original, or the counterfeiters have a way of writing this value in the IC, by the way I have already been testing the software in one of the soldering irons and I really liked it, thank you very much for your work.

Hello! As David said, even if you pass the clone test and flash test, your MCU could still be fake. Like my MCU passed all the tests but the error still appeared. hardfault in some software versions. I replaced another MCU and it works in all software versions. Daivd said he still hasn't figured out how to test the clone chip.
On some clones, they only difference I cold find was the flash size register returning 65535 instead 64/128/etc.
Run the
Flash test !
Dear David, In firmware 1.13.4 for KSGER V.3 the instability of the buzzer appeared. When the set temperature is reached, the signal sounds constantly or does not sound at all. This happens if the temperature does not change after switching on. If you change the temperature after switching on, the buzzer will work correctly. But the next time you turn it on, there will be a continuous signal again. In the firmware for the KSGER V.2, the buzzer works correctly.
The buzzer? And it's not happening in previous versions?
The handling code is exactly the same for all, only the stm32 pins change.
1.13.4 KSGER V.3 I have no problem with the buzzer.
How about v1.13.5?
David, everything is fine now!
Hello David! I updated to firmware version 1.13.5 and it started up normally for the first time since version 1.13.0. Now I’m using it on a station operating in the c245 mode. I had a question - I had the following situation: I flashed a station with a pretty low battery , set the settings I needed (c245, etc.) and then turned off the station. When I needed it for work, I first saw the settings recovery screen, and then I saw that the station switched to T12 mode. After completely resetting the station, setting the settings I needed settings, but at the same time disabling battery mode in the settings, everything works fine. For me this is not critical, but I would like to know what this is connected with, I would like to use this function of your firmware. Once again, this is not critical, but still I would like it to be possible to save the parameters of your stings both with and without a battery. Thank you for your work!
Then simply disable the battery! The last settings will be stored elsewhere.
Did you read the Readme and the operation manual? This is explained extensively.
Please don’t worry, I removed the battery both physically and virtually and I always read the documentation. This doesn’t bother me at all, because in principle everything works, and this is a working situation. If a comparison is appropriate in this situation - any medicine has side effects effects, some have more, others have less. The firmware works and that’s the main thing.
Everything is fine now in KSGER v.3 and v.2. and Handskit (KSGER v.2).
Thank you for your work!
oleg401169, I don't think we're understanding each other.
If you have battery, enable the option, if you don't, disable it.
This only chooses where the last temperature/tip/profile is saved, there's no real difference.
But if you enable the option and there's no battery (Or it's discharged) the value will always be forgotten and the low battery error shown at boot.
