content: Since you are in the USA, wWhy not get a real Hakko FX888 via Amazon.com store of Hakko? At $80, its a great deal compared to what other countries charge for this station and its the real McCoy.

I have 2 of them and i am happyQuote from: vehf277 on December 04, 2012, 09:40:23 pmThat's not a 937 clone .. it's a 936D (that they thought of) and rebadged it as a 937D but actually inside it only has a tiny little 40VA transformer

content: Guys thank you very much but I need your advice ABOUT ISSUE I ASKED you. Is it the Hakko clone solder - resistance of the heating element is 2.5-3.5 Ohm and resistance of the sensor is 43-58 Ohm?Don't advice me to buy Hakko FX-888 please, I need what I need.

content: You got it quite wrong though, the hakko clone stations usually use the thermocouple type heaters not the PTC types so the sensor resistance is about 2-3ohmsand the heating element is 12-13 or possibly 15 (27V types) ohms too i think

If you ask general questions you get general answers. Don't assume that we can read your mind. Explaining what you need and why you think the device in question will satisfy that need will also help reduce unsolicited advice, although frankly if you are going to get snippy about people telling you what to do you probably should give up asking questions on the internet
