Jeez, £65, thats crazy. I remember when these came out (well just the hot air type), my company had to pay over a £1000,
. Best of all the piece of crap didnt even work, cause the IC's were always glued to the board.
I remember the sales guy demonstrating it to us and he ended up burning a hole in the board, awesome way to sell a desolder station.
Alas the Desoldering Station was destroyed the stupid work experience kid, who decided he would rather burn holes in the bench, what a silly boy. If I remember correctly the bench caught fire and set off all the fire alarms.
