12-06-2025This soldering Iron from Hakko is made from high quality components and the control system delivers heat at a consistent temperature. Because of the high quality of the materials used by Hakko, oxidation of the tip and contamination of solder joints just doesnt happen when using this iron(At least not picking up gunk on the tip). Replacement tips and parts are all inspected and stamped with various insurance lab approvals so you can maintain this soldering iron indefinitely at factory new condition. Ive been working with electrical engineering products for 30 years, Hakko is one of the finest companies Ive ever come across.

> 3 dayThis is a really nice soldering station. It heats to soldering temperature in about 30 seconds. Very well made and designed. Holds temperature very well.

Greater than one weekUsed for stippling plastic and digital control allowed to zero in on best temperature to melt for texture without scorching or discoloring.

> 3 dayThis appears to be a nice product, but the manual included is infuriating. It mentions features while intentionally *not* explaining how to use them. For instance. the included manual explains how to enter the parameter setting mode and notes that there are four parameters, but rather than explain what parameters 1, 3, 11, or 14 are, theres a big blank space right below the line explaining how to enter the parameter setting mode with some text in the center pointing you at Hakkos website. Once there, are the documents readily available? No, of course not. You need to waste yet more time creating an online account before Hakko deems you worthy of receiving the sacred knowledge held within. Sorry, but if youre going to waste my time making me create an online account just to access the complete PDF manual for your product, especially in such a needlessly annoying manner, Im going to waste an extra couple minutes leaving your product a 1-star review. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. And congratulations, Hakko, youre a winner!

> 3 dayI had been hearing about how the digital version suffers in comparison to the analog/rotary dial version. Honestly, I havent had any issues other than accidently changing the calibration. That was an easy fix. Just search the following on YouTube: Reset the Hakko FX-888D. Why settle for the cheap radio shack or Weller soldering irons. Sure, even I became highly skilled with them, but they took too long to heat up and suffered while working. The tips on those would always disintegrate. The FX-888D unit heats up in mere seconds and the tips last forever. I highly recommend the Hakko FX-888D to anyone from the hobbyist to the professional.

> 3 dayWhen I got involved with RC aircraft earlier in the year I thought I might need to do some infrequent soldering so bought the Aoyue 469. As time went on I found myself soldering far more frequently than anticipated especially after the hobby grew to encompass working with micro electronic controllers and experimenting with a variety of electronics on circuit boards. The Aoyue just didnt work well enough for what my hobby grew into. The soldering iron tip never tinned properly and inability to find other soldering tips that fit the iron properly just became too irritating. I bought the Hakko with the extra tips to cover needing to solder 12 to 24 gauge wires and also attach components to circuit boards. Very first thing I did was power up the iron and tin the tip. It was a great feeling to finally see a tip that would properly tin. Ive since had many opportunities to use the iron and its a great product. If your going to do a lot of soldering do yourself a favor and buy a good quality iron like this one.
