/diy/ - Do It Yourself

That's a fucking long link, are you trying to beat the 4kB GET payload limit?

I never worked with a TS100. I have a chink 852D+.
852 is the entry level, temperatures are quite approximate, heat conduction to the tip of the iron is not as good as I'd like it to be. I mean, it works, but you really see that it's a cheap one.
Hot air works similarly - temperatures are not real but are repeatable (I mean when you take a pyrometer, it displays a different value than the dials, but for given settings and nozzle the readings are consistent). Lowest blow force from the hot air is able to blow away SMD resistors.

Motherboards? Aargh. Motherboards are hard to solder in general, they typically have far to many layers that can dissipate heat and use a cheap high temperature lead-free solder. 852 has enough power to give it a try, but get right tips.
