Stopped working

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

Powered up once or twice then stopped working, stopped responding to my questions. wouldnt recommend

Suddenly stopped working - seller unresponsive

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

The unsolder worked then suddenly stopped working out of nowhere, the seller has refused to send a replacement board. Buyer beware!

All is ok . Shipping was fast.

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

Shipping was fast. There is no information on the new sensor PCB. Both types of handle I received work well with original JBC cartridges, are quite comfortable to work with, and have a very flexible silicone cable . I'd buy this again if I ever have the need for another soldering station.

Looking good but...

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

PCBs look great but there is no information on the new sensor PCB.
It looks like it should be assembled on top of main PCB but no information on connections or schematic is supplied.

Any help would be apreciated.

есть маленькие проблемы.

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

Пришлось подбирать сопротивления для определения инструмента. T12 определился с 1k 4k.
Иногда при установки паяльника в подставку, на экране появляется помехи, приходится выключать и включать.

Works until now, but some quality issues

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

I bougt this complete set two months ago. Shipping was fast.
The sleep board was missing in the package, seller offered me to send a new one, but I've got nothing until now.
There was a lot of flux all over the board.
A firmware update over USB was not possible, I had to reprogram the bootloader, then it worked.
Some components look not genuine, but the board works until now. We will see how it looks on a long term basis.
At least one resistor had a wrong value.

Good-ish

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

The unisolder project itself seems pretty great to me. It's easily able to compete with commercial products selling for many hundreds of dollars or more in both functionality and performance. Some documentation covering the basics is available, but it unfortunately leaves a few things to be desired. You might end up having to find the information you're after in a forum thread that's hundreds of pages long.

The assembled PCBs I received seem well-made. All the SMD soldering on it looked great to me, but for some of the hand-soldered through-hole components I felt the need to touch them up slightly. I liked the use of machined pin-headers for the display connection, and having all necessary connectors and wiring included is a nice touch. My unit arrived with a lot of residue on it which took a while to clean up, but your mileage may vary.

The bare PCBs I received had solder-paste applied to them previously, most of which seems to have rubbed off during shipping. That made for a somewhat messy unpacking experience as I wasn't expecting it.

I wasn't able to get the sensor PCB I received to work as intended and, based on its schematic, I'm not sure how it ever could. When reaching out about that I've been told that the sensor I got has been superseded by a new version in the time it took me to assemble my station, which I think is unfortunate. You might end up having to DIY your own if you receive the same model I did.

Both types of handle I received work well with original JBC cartridges, are quite comfortable to work with, and have a very flexible silicone cable that doesn't easily get in the way.

The 191 thermometer seems like good value for money to me. I wanted to calibrate it against one of my most trustworthy thermocouples, but it turned out that it was well-calibrated out of the box. Maybe I just got lucky, though.

I'd buy this again if I ever have the need for another soldering station.

ok

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

We played football with the package during the flight. The boards are not damaged, everything is in order.

Unisolder 5.2c Review

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

I am very satisfy with this product. The finished boards is perfectly made and soldered. Only USB was wrongly stuck on the board and have a slop in right side. Also the connectors MOLEX are very poor quality and started to fall apart after a few uses. Required to attach pinout and wiring drawings, and which software version is installed as well.

Everything OK, 5+

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

I receive this package and was surprised. The seller send me all connection cable, resistor pack, and the best... Touch sleep sensor board. The package was packed very well and sent as fast as possible. I really recommend and thank you very much.

satisfecho y gracias Unisolder 5.2c

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

Good, I already received my pre-finished product, all very good quality, I have not tried it yet, I still need a guide on how to assemble it thanks to the seller and the administrator

Works perfectly!

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

Tolle Qualität, Super Preis Leistung, einwandfreie Ware und schneller Lieferant. Vielen Dank für die schnelle Abwicklung. Hat super geklappt.
Vielleicht kommen wir mal wieder ins Geschäft.

Alessandro | Feb. 2, 2021

WoW! Beautiful and highly recommended!

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

I have to say that the attention to the detail is really amazing! Even though I bought only the board, the package came with all the accessories needed to put the board in a working state (cables and connectors). Didn't expect that and it was highly appreciated. It was a pleasure buying from you. See you next time!

Vasilka | Jan. 25, 2021

ok

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

I am very pleased with the product. The boards are perfectly made and soldered. only the connectors (MOLEX) are not very readable, and they started to fall apart after a few removals.

A great Deal

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

Perfect! I was always interested in this project but never found the time to create the BOM and order all components myself, not to mention soldering it up. This Kit not only contains the finished PCBs but also precrimped cables for all connectors, the pcb for iron handle detection and resistors for iron identification, so everything needed to build the soldering station minus the transformer, which is cheaper to source locally anyway due to shipping weight.

Works perfectly

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

The item arrived in reasonable time and well packaged. The Unisolder board is soldered very nicely and the components on the board seem ok, apart from the Chinese capacitors, butt those can be easily swapped out if any problems arise. For the price I think it's unbeatable. The optional iron handle is definitely used but it works, my plan is to use it as a secondary handle or for a backup. Testing the iron against the optional thermometer the thermometer shows around 10 degree C lower than the Unisolder, testing it with my Ersa pico I get a similar reading, so the results seem consistent but a little low. Overall I'm very happy with my order and will definitely recommend buying a pre-assembled Unisolder.

Great product and seller!

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

I am very pleased with the quality, delivered quite quickly, the parcel was securely packed. I recommend that I definitely order more.

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

Great shipping duration and great quality.
Very happy with the product.
Would always buy it again.
I was a little bit skeptical about the JBC cartridge holders but they are just fine.

Great product and seller!

For Unisolder 5.2C Finished Circuit Board

Everything arrived quickly and complete. The boards was packaged safely and everything was in working order. The solder quality of the parts look good and this kit is way more economical than sourcing your own parts and soldering the board. Highly recommend this for anyone wanting to go with the Unisolder but doesn't want to source parts and solder them!

I would also love to see the seller provide an option for just components and pcbs and allow the users to solder. One of the great things of the Unisolder is the process of soldering everything together.
