T962 Reflow Oven?

(1/17) > >>

jpanhalt:
Any comments about or experience with the imported T962 reflow oven?  Is the only problem the controller?

Comments on 63/37 solder paste that is not Kester brand?  My only experience over many years is with Kester rosin core solder.

Thanks, John

Dubbie:
I have one.
I replaced the firmware and did the other mods floating around the net.
pretty happy with it. All my boards seem to come out very well.

I initially intended to use the shipping firmware, but it really is completely unusably terrible.

coppice:
People tend to find that the Qinsi QS-5100 is like a T962 with most of the really bad issues fixed.

I use MG Chemical 4860P 63/37 no clean one and am happy with it.

Edit:  i prefer Kester but it is hard to find here

jpanhalt:
Thanks for the comments.   I have been watching T962 prices for awhile.  I picked up a new one ( I hope) for less the $200 including shipping and tax and plan to implement most of the improvements to the firmware and other issues that are described on the internet.  They are summarized on GitHub.

MG solder was going to be my first option as the company has been around awhile.
