The Hakko FX-888 is an inexpensive yet durable temperature adjustable soldering station that provides more power and takes up less bench space than its predecessor (the Hakko 936). The added power of the FX-888 provides up to a 30% increase in thermal performance and faster thermal recovery time, and it uses approximately 35% less surface area compared to the Hakko 936. The FX-888 is excellent for soldering battery packs, motors, connectors and circuit boards.

I just bought one of these locally. I was looking for the 936 and came across this. (936 discontinued?) Anyway this is an outstanding unit. More than enough power for hobby work. Heats up in like 10 seconds... Have used it about a dozen times already and is stupid easy to keep the tips clean. I have had a decent amount of soldering experience in my time, and this unit just made me feel 200% more pro at it. Dont overlook the FX888!

This unit is excellent and powerful. This includes a 70 watt station and 65 watt iron, which is a step up from the 936 which included a 65 watt station and 50 watt iron. The new iron has excellent temperature stability. I timed it heating up from ambient temp (around 60°F) to 900°F and it took 46.5 seconds. I also wanted to point out that the iron's cord is a bit longer than it was on the 936, and it's very flexible. The tip it comes with is small, so for larger applications like 10 gauge wire or 6mm bullet connectors, I recommend the optional 5.2mm wide chisel tip.

I have this product for 3 weeks and highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good soldering station. It looks like the station is plastic, but this is not true. Tough and sturdy all around. Don't miss out on a outstanding product such as this.
