EEVblog #596 - World's Cheapest Soldering Station - Yihua 936 https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/22d320c8-2777-4da0-93ea-5f96917dc3ae Dave takes a look at the world's cheapest temperature controlled soldering station, the $16 Hakko 936 knockoff Yihua 936 from Hobby King. How does it compare to the older genuine Hakko 926? Also, thermal capacity comparison testing is done on those two irons plus the high thermal capacity JBC. Sagan also gives his verdict. http://en.yihuaxin.com/about.html Hakko 936 Schematic: http://dalincom.ru/datasheet/HAKKO_936_schematic.pdf Forum: http://www.eevblog.com/forum/blog/eevblog-596-world%27s-cheapest-soldering-station-yihua-936/ EEVblog Main Web Site: http://www.eevblog.com EEVblog Amazon Store: http://astore.amazon.com/eevblogstore-20 Donations: http://www.eevblog.com/donations/ Projects: http://www.eevblog.com/projects/ Electronics Info Wiki: http://www.eevblog.com/wiki/ Wed, 10 Jun 2026 08:48:37 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://stream.echo6.co EEVblog #596 - World's Cheapest Soldering Station - Yihua 936 https://stream.echo6.co/client/assets/images/icons/icon-512x512.png https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/22d320c8-2777-4da0-93ea-5f96917dc3ae All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://stream.echo6.co/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
