I noticed you went with the 110V US version - seeing as you are in Australia I guess you must also be using a step-down transformer? Any reason why you didn't go for the 220V EU version or would that also require a transformer? Thanks for the comprehensive review!
Nice! Where can i get a stand which holds the air blower vertically? (which you used at "practical test" chapter, 5:52). I suppose is not included with the station. Or is it?
Yeah it is good for higher density boards too With shields I’d recommend using ultra low melt solder around them first with an iron. It melts around 90°c you do need to remove it after though. Nothing against the stations capabilities just that is a better method and less risk
Any kind It depends on what you are working on. No clean Tacky gel flux is the most versatile The only places you can’t use it is in certain micro soldering applications, like iPhone ram replacements
Atten works very good. Thats what I am using right now bro.
Nice!!
I wish i saw this video earlier I would've bought mine sooner lol, very detailed review

I actually live in Asia currently
@@Slot1Gamer Awesome - that explains it! Thanks
I have this machine for 2+ year very powerful
Just bought this not even 5 minutes ago from northridge fix!
i have this machine 2 years now work nicely
Awesome, they are good machines
How about reviewing the Forward precise temperature control hot air gun
Check out the Forward FW-HA01 hot air station or one of the other models.
@@danpluso I’ll take a look
What to review next: definitely the RF4 H2 which seems promising as it's around $70 for 1000 W (50 l/min, though)
Yeah RF4 make some nice looking stuff
I think they mostly target mobile phone shops hence the low flow rate for that one.
Fantastic! Thank you!
Thanks glad you liked it 😃

It’s not included, it’s actually a stand for a digital microscope
How did you like this hot air station for working on more dense Apple board and shields?
Yeah it is good for higher density boards too
With shields I’d recommend using ultra low melt solder around them first with an iron.
It melts around 90°c you do need to remove it after though.

@@Slot1Gamer Ultra low melt solder? First time I'm hearing of this, can you share buylink?
Getting it Tomorrow :D
Nice! let me know if you like it 😄
@@Slot1Gamer thanks! I also bought the jbc CD-2BQF. I'm extremely excited! I'll let you know!
Sweet that’s a nice looking station too
What flux can be used?
Any kind
It depends on what you are working on.
No clean Tacky gel flux is the most versatile

Forward hot air station better known as blue fire hot air station
