I was originally settling on a Yihua 959D, but I still have many unanswered questions about that one, and am a bit worried about it's safety.

Using vacuum principle for picking up small electronic components, such as IC, SMD and other parts, up to about 50g.While the Atten costs nearly three times the 959D, it does seem significantly better in just about every way, including in terms of safety and usability. It's great for beginners to experts thanks to its super-fast heat-up time and easy-to-use button interface. It works flawlessly and I honestly cannot imagine any other hot air station working better than this. It can add critical time to a project and can seriously stymie your soldering momentum if you run into a bad component or a faulty reflow.

I was looking into it more and ran into Louis Rossman's video comparing two other stations, a Quick 861DW and an Atten ST-862D. Improved the problem of tin loss while soldering, dirty working environment, easy to batch collection and take o. With the ATTEN ST-862D Hot Air Soldering Rework Station, you can easily rework your boards and get your project back on track. This version is ~120VAC only - even though the datasheet mentions ~230VAC, that's a different (European) version!ST-1020D is an intelligent desktop DC ion fan that blows ionized air over the surface of electro-static sensitive products. Comes with four nozzles, use the smallest size you can get away with - it helps avoid damaging other components if you are trying to isolate one part of the board while avoiding a connector, for example. In addition to the hot air function, the device can also generate an air flow at room temperature to cool components. Other similar stations like Best or Atten are knockoffs of it, some more blatant than others, Atten ST-862D being one of the least obvious.

This powerful station has an internal pump and heater to blow a steady stream of temperature-controlled hot air to make it super easy to remove components, fix joints and jumpers, replace missing components, or just correct something you've done wrong. The hot air station is convertible with straight and spiral air, has a auto-sleep function and a heating element overheating detection. The LED screen for displaying working temperatures and working states makes it easy to operate and access the most important functions.Very low airflow which is also highly pulsating, so it can blow off small components even at low airflow. Just make sure to let the rework station heat up all the way before using it and be careful to use tools (and not your hands! The Atten ST-862D is a professional digital hot air station featuring a high power output and LCD screen. High accuracy MCU control is employed to synchronously detect 3 tool channels that can be used independently and synchronously without mutual interference.
