  • Sounds like you are doing through hole? If this is the case I have question for you. How are you desoldering is it with a vacuum desoldering system, solder sucker or solder wick. I need to know the answers to this before I can help.

  • did you get my email

  • Yes, and I have been replying to your e mails. I have not received a replay to my questions

  • @Tda7000 Try preheating it with a heat gun.

  • 0:28 Stds 8x4 in on the tip. I don't think I have that tool

  • what desoldering gun are you using???....

  • What about on multi-layer boards with large ground\power planes such as a computer motherboard?

  • Do you know how expensive this desoldering gun is?!? It used to cost a fortune around here. Today it's for a half-a-month worth of work. This is way too expensive for most hobbyists. In fact, even small companies have it as one of the most precious pieces of equipment. I will give you a few tips on how to do the same thing cheaply:

    • Preserve part: Put a huge blob of tin, pull the part off.

    • Preserve PCB: Cut all legs far from PCB, remove ind.

    • Preserve all: Force in an injection needle.

  • What's the temperature of the tip?

  • @SolderingGeek I have the same question, but I have a vacuum desoldering bulb.

  • I have a vaccuum solder sucker ( the spring loaded kind ) and am trying to desolder a 14 pin flat lead DIP. I have a fine conical tip on my iron. I've removed half of the solder, on the opposite side to the chip, but the vaccuum hasn't picked up the solder on the side with the chip, any advice there?

  • @denoizer si, por favor, y grabalo, quiero ver como alguien absorve con la boca plomo y estaño a casi 200ºC, tiene que ser divertido

    @solderinggeek he said "can I suck it with my mouth"
