I bought a Hakko FX-888D a few years ago and immediately regretted all the time I had wasted using crappy irons for a decade and a half. Suddenly, soldering worked as easily as it did on all those YouTube videos.
I solder so infrequently that it felt like spending $100 on an iron was overkill, and I couldn't have been more wrong.
- bschwindHN 7y agoSame! My first iron was a shitty radioshack one. Shelling out the $100 for a Hakko is absolutely worth it for the time and frustration savings. I actually really enjoy soldering with it because it works so smoothly. My only regret is not getting the analog version because Hakko kinda sucks at making digital interfaces.
