Then maybe something like this? -- little more… but shares some qualities of mcdermds.

Me wants just a couple of those! [}🙂] ]'>
Your station only has vacuum pickup, right? No go if it doesn't have provision for a real vacuum de-soldering gun.

The top one looks very similar to my Hakko 808 but in white.
The biggest thing I would check when buying one is how easy it is to get the expendable parts. You'll need to change tips, filters, etc on a semi-regular basis.

pretty sure hakko parts work on it… its a hakko clone,,, just like my solder station… accepts all genuine hakko parts.

I understand money being tight, lord knows I've been there. However I have learned the hard way that cheaping out on tools is just a bad idea, as you really do get what you pay for. Looking at eBay you can pick up a Hakko 808 for under $200.
If you itemize on your taxes you can write it off on your taxes as a business expense, then do a couple of recap jobs and you have it paid for.

lol i never break the standard deduction….
I would have to go big time to start itemizing on my taxes…
i know what you are saying… but i have used trash my while life… its what i know.
before harbor freight.. biglot was a good place to buy cheap tools.
been using a 20 dollar soldering iron all last year. this new one i just got its 100 Times better then that…
the smoke ventilator on there works fantastic… now flux smoke doesn't make my nose hairs all crusty !!! 🙂

Has anyone bought one of the knockoff desoldering guns? I've been wanting to buy a desoldering gun for awhile, but $200 is a lot to swing lately, would much rather $100 if it is similar quality. (for hobbyist use)

I got the white GaoJie pictured above for christmas. The stand is pretty nice and I see no problems other than my tip at least was not tinned at the very tip and thus it can't melt the solder. Still gets hot enough on the sides to melt fairly large joints though. Just can't suck the solder up for obvious reasons. :b&w:
