bought one of these guys awhile back. Great little hotplate. I love watching all the little parts scurrying around to their spots when the solder paste gets melty enough

I've built a basic little hot plate with a piece of aluminum and a big wire-wound resistor. It's been great for tasks such as heating up a metal-core PCB so I can solder a big LED to it.

Looks nice. I recently used a similar little hot plate for desoldering 0402 resistors from some module, it did the job splendidly. The one I worked with used a resistive path on a metal core PCB, which is in itself interesting. Power to the heater module was supplied via a pair of pogo pins. A temperature sensor placed in the center was tacked on with some high temperature silicone, which degraded and fell off nevertheless.

Nooooo! Not more tools to soak up my paychecks 😭Looks like a great little asset to have

Isn't 280C too low for lead-free solder rework on mobile phones?

Now this one looks significantly different to the cheaper units!

Nice demo. Did you consider re-alighning those pesky LEDs? My OCD was raging! Adding a little liquid flux once it was warm might have pulled those LEDs to pad center?

Cute heater. That could be all sorts of useful. Weird comment on Amazon: "Smells like feet. Weird, but okay."

dont let the board on the plate to cool down, you are just burning it. With 63/37 solder it should be set to 208°C.

jlcpcb told me that LEDs often go bad in the soldering process because of water that gets picked up somewhere from the atmosphere and that slowly baking the LEDs first (they charge a minimal fee for this) makes them much more likely to hold up to the process.

Might also be good for material/chemical IDing by melting point testing...

I will get one from Amazon. My old soldering irons are decrepit. My plug in one has the tip burnt beyond all recognition. My gas one sputters away and sometimes refuses to light. Very sad indeed. And I do like the digital control of the temperature and the pretty white display. I will probably look for a deal with the hotplate and a digital soldering iron which are "frequently bought together". Getting stuff from amazon is always a bit like Christmas. 🎄

Be nice to have a app to control providing for running different profiles. Maybe a hack in Its future.

The only advantage I see over the ceramic furnace in the kitchen is that you can sit comfortably in front of your desk to do reworks. For soldering a few boards, the kitchen is superior, because multiple boards fit on the cooking plate at the same time and the cooker hood makes it easy to deal with potentially unhealthy fumes that come of the boards.

Not a lot to show. This is a tiny hot plate. It will saturate the plate with heat in too fast time to see anything useful.
