YIHUA 929D-V Electric Vacuum Desoldering Iron Soldering Iron Kit Solder Sucker Desoldering Pump with Shorter Charging Handle and Desoldering Nozzles 1.0mm 1.2mm for Through-Hole Desoldering(UK Plug)

Very easy to setup and use melts lead free solder fairly fast and the suction if fairly good you must remember to tin the tip of the tool to extend the life of each tip but does the job very well and good value for money

Easy to use, quick to heat up. Keep copper tip cleaner handy to extend the life of the tip.Couldn’t be more straight forward to use and has made modifying, fixing and testing circuits a hundred times easier and less stressful. The hollow heated tip slips over the soldered pins, melting the solder so you can suck it all up with one button, rarely do you have to come back for a second suck, provided you eject excess solder in the shaft with the plunger (worth having a wet cloth to eject it onto). The build is a bit flimsy in its plastic so I’m trying not to be too rough with it, but it was a worthwhile investment for the hours of agony I’d spent trying to desolate with wick or a separate non heated solder sucker. Could be a bit more compact for smaller circuits and I haven’t tried it with SMD components which I can imagine with the size might be an issue. No temperature control either but it’s been plenty hot enough and fast working that I haven’t felt like it needed one. I might put a switch on it too so I don’t have to plug it in and unplug it from the outlet every time I need to use it. Comes with a little stand which is helpful.

YIHUA 929D-V Electric Vacuum Desoldering Iron Soldering,This saved me a good amount of time without the fuss of using an iron and solder sucker separately so im able to get some more repairs done.The iron heats up within around 3-5mins although on the first use it did smoke abit for the first 20mins then stopped afterwards and you do need to tin the top before use.While this is only used for desoldering hole through components so re-soldering components your still going to need an iron available im happy enough to finish my current work within 25mins and not like 45-50mins it sometimes takes.Some people will say you could use this to re-solder however, you going to have to be extremely careful as most components are close together.Cleaning the camber is really easy to do and i spent pretty much the last few days working on at least 30 different boards. There is a negative of which i found out pretty much after the first clean, if you don't clean this out the solder will eventually fall out the nozzle.The other negative i noticed is the o-ring on the plunger this looks like a wearable part and if that fails the device is not going to be effective, so would be nice to know if the o-ring can be replaced as you don't get any spares in packaging .You do get two extra nozzles which are different in sizes and a cleaning rod.You do have to be careful with the power cable as this is wrapped in just normal silicone rubber and not high heat rubber so the iron would happily put a hole through it.Build quality wise i was happy with its as its easy to clean. The weight makes this easy to use one handed and depress the sucker.I felt value wise for what i paid for it (£35.99) aslong as im able to get my work done quicker its good money well spent.

Superb. I recapped an entire Sega Mega Drive Model 1 with this and it did a terrific job. One tip though, make sure you have some silicon grease with you, as whenever you clean out the barrel(which is super easy), the rubber gromit on the sucking barrel will get a bit sticky and you NEED to have the grease to get it moving smoothly again. For a hobbyist looking to do small work, this is perfect for the money. The only things to bear in mind are the tips which will burn out after maybe an hour or so of the device being heated. So get extra tips, which are available on amazon, and get some cheap silicone grease, and you are good to go! Pic attacthed of the work i did!

The YIHUA 929D-V is an outstanding desoldering tool. It has a powerful vacuum function and works perfectly for through-hole desoldering. The shorter charging handle is comfortable to use, and the nozzles fit well. A must-have for electronics repairs!

This was absolutely brilliant to begin with. Even getting components off double sided boards.It worked on any component I cared to extract - large or tiny!It was a joy to use!But after only a few uses, the 'silicone' seal where the pump joins to the heated tube has burnt and crumbled away. So now it doesn't suck at all which really sucks!So if you want a throw-away product at this price, go ahead! Ultimately it will fail.Oh and the nozzles don't last long at all. They also crumble away unevenly pretty rapidly so suction fails. I see they've now realised this and are charging £10 for a new pack, which is ridiculous bearing in mind the original product price.If you have only a few desoldering jobs and are prepared to fork out the money for this just to do those jobs, then that will probably work well for you. But any more than that and this product will fail.The 'silicone' seal is obviously very poor quality, as are the nozzles. They just can't take the heat!So overall, another product which lasts only a few uses and then becomes land-fill.You have been warned!

This tool is a game changer. For those that use soldering iron and solder suckers in combination, you know the pain of having both tips in fighting for the same space. This drops over the pin, melts the solder and you can suck the solder right off the joint, it clears out the hole nicely. Much better and more consistent than using a separate solder sucker. It's a great addition to my soldering workstation.
