Actually I am in the progress to really do my first project of renovating some old gear. This means recapping a PCB from the 1980s and probably having to de-solder some components like mosfets and diodes to check for correct operation and re-solder them later on, so I cannot leave some mess or burned ground there...
As I also do this as a hobby, I like to have some decent quality tools, so that I would not have to buy twice in short time, but to be budget-friendly...
Some proven solution seems to the the "Engineer SS-02" mechanical desoldering pump, that is available in germany for around 30 €€€.
In parallel, on german amazon some "YIHUA 929D-V" desoldering iron is offered
https://www.amazon.de/Electric-Desoldering-Soldering-Shorter-Charging/dp/B09GV5B1SR/On ebay, some similar tools around 10-20 Euros are also available, that basically consist of a hollow soldering tip with a heater and a mechanical pump behind it.
Question: Are there any experiences with them? Are the usable to desolder discrete components (no SMD) with a usage of maybe 100 solder joints in a quarter of a year?
