Hey guys,
Had my Haako for a couple years now, and before you ask it's 100% genuine and not a clone.
Ive noticed an issue recently, it seems to no longer be able to make nice shiny joints, they are coming out dull and dont flow in the same way they used to. I've tried leaded and unleaded solder and I only use high quality stuff from RS. I have a brand new Antex I use as a backup and thats been just fine.
The Haako takes longer to get to temperature than it used to and I have tried multiple new tips of all sizes, maybe my element has gone bad? I was previously running it at 420C for unleaded solder (now gone right down to 375C) so maybe long time at high temperature has cooked it?
Thanks lads
Elliott
