Thanks Beh, I really appreciate your help.

The de-soldering gun I have is 809. Not so sure if the 807 at Ebay is the same so I will contact Hakko to check before buying.

Cheers,
Gerald

Thanks Beh,

Yes I have to look out if I can find the heating element alone as the whole gun is too expensive.

Humidity is a problem but also has one big advantage: we do not have much static electricity problems 🙂

Cheers,
Gerald

Hi Gerald
if the problem of your de-sodering gun is heating element . the only way to solve this problem is to buy this element from the HAKKO company and replace it .but my problem with GOOT de-soldring gun was because of the lack of the lubricant on mechanical part of the vacuum pump the pump was stocked and just by few drop of oil the problem was solved and mechanical arm start to work again . here i do not have problem with humidity and is dry every where sea is 1000 mile away from here
all the best wishes for you
beh

Hi Gerald,
There should be something that you could use to keep your tools out of the humidity. I think some people here in the USA use cedar chests, if I remember right. Or maybe you could make a closet into a de-humidifier like cigar stores do.

Thanks Anthony. I have different sized tips for my Hakko that I use. Yes, it is perfect and less stressful for IC's to use the de-soldering gun, and much faster. If my house burned down and I lost everything and had to start all over, the Hakko 808, Fluke 87V, a good analog VOM, and the Peak Atlas DCA75 Pro, would be the first tools that I would buy.
No, I have never lived in Massachusetts. But I was a truck driver and have been there many times. It's a very beautiful state!
