Quick (and other) hot air station information request
« on: April 14, 2020, 11:53:55 pm »
I am looking to get a hot air station for my SMD repair setup. I have heard many good things about the Quick 861DW but after looking at some of the other products on Quick's site (and doing some unsuccessful digging on the net for reviews), was wondering if others have tried some of their other products and had information on them.
TR1300 https://quick-global.eu/produkt/quick-tr1300/
TR1100 https://quick-global.eu/produkt/tr1100/
861DE https://quick-global.eu/produkt/quick861de-esd/
861X https://www.aliexpress.com/i/33024971113.html

I don't see the 861X listed on what appears to be the Quick corporate page so I don't know if it is legit or not. I also have no idea what the TR series ones cost as one retailer I spoke to was selling the TR 1300 for around $900 while I saw it listed on places like Aliexpress and Banggood for about half that price (though I have no idea if they are real or just cheap clones of the original). I am also open to other suggestions if you guys have found other stations that are reliable that work for you.

Thanks in advance!

HI

Yes I always wandered about the 861X it is not on the Quick website nither is the below 881d, also the TR 1300 lists as 1000W  but aliexpress lists the TR3100A as 1300W so not quite sure what is correct.

A small update to this, for those interested in Quick products, I managed to get a hold of a distributor in Poland who was listed on the Quick website and he mentioned that a simplified version of the TR1300 will be coming out (the new model is TR1300D) in June but he didn't mention how much it was going to be. As for the TR1300, Biall (the Polish retailer) had it for sale for about $675 USD. Still hoping someone who has happened to use the TR1300/TR1100 units would be able to give a review or comparison against the 861DW and how much they paid for them.

Ok, one final update on this and I'll put it to rest:

After getting some additional information from the manufacturer, they said that the TR1300 is the one that has an all touchscreen interface and the TR1300a is the low-end model for cellphone repair, uses buttons instead of the touchscreen, and doesn't support their software for monitor the TR series of products over the internet. They also said there is no TR1300d and no plans to make one.

As far as the TR1300a being a lower model for cellphone repairs, I wonder if he wasn't mistakenly referring to the TR1100 which seems like a less powerful unit. Either way, I am done digging on this as its too hard to get accurate information. Apparently Quick seems to rely on word of mouth for advertising their new equipment instead of having data available on their site about it.

Did you purchase a Quick?  If so, are they any good?  I'm considering the 861DW.  It's $300 for a Chinese hot air station.  I assume they are a few steps above a $50-$175 Chinese hot air station?

If that would true then impeller would not self destruct on random

I have been researching to compare the quick 861dw and tr1300a, but nothing is clear, websites have different information, so I contacted "Quick Global"  BillJiang , who was useless,  he didn't even read my question and was more concerned where did I buy the unit???, when I asked him just a simple question knowing the 861dw has 120lt/min as max, how much is the max lt/min for the tr1300a,  is 70lt/min? 100lt/min?, he couldn't or wanted to respond and never heard from  him again , with that kind of customer support ,  I decided to go for Atten ST-862D, they responded right away to any questions, and it is the same quick station with a better price.

I think it's 70 litres/min. I have a unit which I'll do a video on by next week.

I have been Using The Atten ST-862D, Quick TR1300A and the TR1100 For a Few Weeks Now

The TR1300A in my Opinion Beats the ST-862D, RandomHacks BST-863, 861DW, (I have Used them All) Worth the additional expense trade off is the Fan Ramps up way to much on cool down.  THe Random Hacks mod on the BST-863 was cool but had heat stability issues.

As for airflow i think the TR1300A in the real world is 100lt/min or a little more sure does push more air than the ST-862D I think it's specs are 120lt/min. but no telling how they are rating these.
