For small PCBs jovy RE7500 is ok.
However, if you do consoles, laptops and other larger pcbs a bigger preheater is a must.
RE-8500 much better suited. You can use it for the larger PCB.
But also for the small ones.
RE-7500 more suited for small PCB only.
I would allways go for RE-8500 unless you only do cellphones and nothing else maybe.
But who knows, you might start doing that later? |
