Hi Kevin, et al:
For what little it's probably worth, I've used my Hakko 808 numerous
times to clear away a LOT of solder from tube sockets, and many other

A power vacuum desolderer like the Hakko can be a wonderful investment and
good addition to the bench. Like any tool, it requires
Hi
I have the 808 and a older 706 Hakko. The 808 comes with 2 tips and they are
about the right size for most of the work I do. They should be fine for any

pin while pulling igently/i on the part to be removed) then clean
up the hole with a little braid, you're good. This is how I installed

Hi guys,
The Hakko 808 looks very much to me like the Denon Instruments Co. Ltd.
SC-7000 desoldering tool. I wonder if there is some tie up between
Hakko and Denon? Anyway the point of this post is that I find the
