Product Description

Reliable digital technology by HAKKO – Introducing the HAKKO FX-888D Excellent thermal recovery Heater output has been increased by 30% compared to that of the conventional models HAKKO 936·937. Also FX-888D delivers excellent thermal recovery by using T18 series tips for their terrific heat conductivity. This allows soldering at a lower set temperature and reducing the thermal impact on components as well as tip oxidation that can shorten tip life. Thermal recovery graph Rise time to 350°C is 20 seconds faster and tip temperature drop is reduced during continuous work.     HAKKO FX-888D performance comparison graph with conventional stations Able to shorten the time required for the same work and improve work efficiency significantly.       Designed to be User-Friendly Small footprint Compact station body requires a space of only 100 (W) x 120 (D) mm. What’s more, points that come into contact with the floor are positioned as close to the outer edge of the body as possible to improve stability and make the station difficult to fall over. Simple and easy operation With only two operation buttons of UP and ENTER in the center, operation is simple and easy. Even if you’re not familiar with operation of machines, you can operate it without difficulty. Iron holder with full of functions An iron holder of the same color of a soldering station comes as a set. The highly functional iron holder not only improves ease of use, but also brings a sense of visual consistency to the work environment

I had purchased the "regular" Hakko FX-888 Soldering Station, which had developed a temperature control problem, so I ended up going with the FX-888D to replace it.

Out of the box, the only difference you're likely to notice between the two is that one's digital and one isn't. The actual iron is the same, the weight is the same, the tip is the same, the base is the same... Side by side, it looks like some corners were cut in FX-888D packaging materials, and the DIN plug on the iron felt just the slightest bit cheaper on the 888D.

In terms of actual use, the FX-888D isn't really as intuitive as the analog. You'd think pushing "up" to get the temperature you want is logical, and the base pretends that it does something if you try. To get it to actually change though, you have to hold down "enter" for two seconds, and then choose your temperature. Not a big deal in the slightest, but just one of those "huh... I wouldn't have designed it that way". Presets are more involved, but not unreasonably so.

Moving the temperature up and down, the iron reacts quickly, just like the trusty FX-888. On the 888D, you can see the base counting up or down as appropriate, and wide (~200 degree) adjustments happen in about 20 seconds or so. One gripe here: the display shows you the setting, rather than the actual temperature -- which is to say: if you set it from 325 to 550, when it counts up to 550 it's ready. However, if you touch it to metal to start soldering, the display doesn't follow the temperature back down and up again. It just stays there at what it's set to, with a tiny LED dot that blinks to show it's heating. So, what's on your display isn't necessarily your actual temperature. Not that the analog ever showed you actual temperature, but I'd chalk it up as a "missing feature" if you're thinking of upgrading.

I was struggling to desolder components with XYtronic 258 Variable temp soldering iron so I bit the bullet and bought this Hakko. It's a comparative dream to use. The Xytronic took 5-8 minutes to get enough heat to be useful but the Hakko is at 750F in about 3 or less. The solder always melts with the Hakko and I can do things like touch the iron to a desoldering braid and have the braid itself get hot enough to melt the solder on components and draw the solder into the braid. Doing that with the Xytronic rarely worked and I'd have to keep trying and trying different positions and angles. The Hakko even melted solder on 6mm wide tabs that held a giant aluminum heat sink to the motherboard and let me get the heat sink off. The only thing I haven't been able to solder to is some tiny silver wires acting as shielding around the circumference of something like a USB cable. A comment to this review said the problem is likely that the wires were stainless steel which can't be soldered to with conventional techniques.

Unlike the Xytronic, the Hakko's iron has a nice thin cord that doesn't try to pull the iron out of its holder or make the iron hard to keep held in certain orientations. It's even got a soft foam grip that makes it stable to hold the iron more by your fingertips if you need to, and the iron is small and lightweight.

The only thing I don't like about the Hakko is the controls. It's only got "Up" and "Enter". In the default mode, you must hold Enter for 2 seconds to set the temperature, then the left digit flashes and you press Up repeatedly (holding Up doesn't do anything) till you get the value you want (at 9 it returns to 0).

This soldering iron is high quality and has sophisticated electronics to maintain temperature and reach the target temperature quickly when powered on. The stand that holds the iron is sturdy metal although the blue and yellow coloring makes it look like it could be plastic. With the free CHP170 cutters, worth about 8 dollars, this $93 unit cost about $85 itself, about the cost of the FX888 analog model with is now discontinued but still on sale for $80-83 all over the internet and Amazon, of course..

You can program up to 5 preset temperatures or simply change the temperature manually. Setup is easy, and also allows for a password to prevent unwanted use. The quality of this unit meets or exceeds other units I have used extensively, like Weller stations and Metcal towers. I opted for this unit over the Ayohue (sp?) which was less expensive but has a larger footprint despite using a similar wattage to the Hakko (75W). The Ayohue has an attached solder spool roller on the station itself, and these spools can be purchased separately, can be moved around the work area, for example, closer to the circuit board, to feed solder to the components as are they are installed or reworked. Separate solder spools are convenient, without the need to move the entire station, or pulling out long lengths of solder from the station to reach the work area, only to require winding the extra length of solder back onto the spool. Always tin your tips to prevent oxidation and prolong tip life.

I do wish two accessories had been included, the rubber lip that is optional and can be used to wipe off excess solder off the tip, and also, a heat resistant pad to facilitate the changing of solder tips when they are still hot.
