Title: £100-£200 Hot air station recommendations?
Post by: peps1 on March 07, 2024, 11:25:54 am

Looking to upgrade my YIHUA hot air station, and wanted something with an integrated pump rather than a blower fan in the handle. It only ever gets light use, so fine with a budget option, just want a little upgrade.

Nothing beats it in that price range. I use it daily at work.

Take a look at the Tenma 21-1012 (Farnell). It's surprisingly usable.
Maybe there is a version of it sold in chinese shops which are cheaper.
