Exclusive Rework Stations
Product Description
The 862BD+ 2-in-1 Rework + Soldering Station
When you get the 862BD+, you can look forward to:
For the cost of one station, you now get an integration of two professional-grade tools to help you expand your capabilities and the size of your projects. Having both the hot air station and the soldering station at your disposal can dramatically increase the flexibility and versatility of your work.
The station also comes with a series of assistive functions to help you improve work quality, efficiency, and equipment lifespan. These functions include temperature stabilization, hot air protection mode, hot air automatic/manual modes, soldering iron sleep mode, °C/°F conversion function, temperature calibration, and more.
Regardless if you're a professional, an intermediate, a beginner, or an electronic fanatic, this station can help you complete your work with ease.
Numerical Fan Speed Values
The numerically displayed fan speed value (simulated value) can help you keep track of the optimum fan speed setting for components in different sizes. You can use the corresponding fan speed to ensure your work is always precise, and efficiently done.
Automatic Hot Air Mode
An YIHUA Exclusive Technology – When flipped to automatic, the gun cools to 212°F when placed in the holder. Unneccessary wear and tear could happen when you’re switching between tools for a project. This function helps avoid those unnecessary wear on the consumable parts, and extend the lifespan of the heating element by cooling the gun when it is not in use. At the same time, the function improves safety factor, and help you reduce unnecessary energy usage.
Manual Hot Air Mode
An YIHUA Exclusive Technology – When flipped to manual, the gun stays at the set temperature for frequent usage. This provides an alternative option for when you need to use the hot air gun frequently for a project t.
We equipped this function with a quick-access toggle switch, so you can switch the hot air station back to the automatic mode at a flick of a switch after on-and-off usages.
Soldering Station Sleep Mode
In the holder, the iron cools 392°F to idle when it detects no movements. You can set the sleep mode timer from 0 to 99 minutes based on your own preference. Idling at 392°F prevents the oxidization of the soldering iron tip, and it is able to heat up to your set temperature quickly when you pick up the soldering iron.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2024I love this station, I got one for my home work station for my side hustle repairing electronics and liked it so much I purchased one at my day job where I could have purchased any brand I wanted.
I like the smart controls such as the hot air cool down and the iron's resting temperature. I use both these stations frequently and both have held up perfectly. They came with extra accessories, although I have needed to use them yet.
I like the ability to switch between C or F temperature, and the variable fan speed on the hot air. It came with extra trips and the size is common, easy to find more tips.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2024Let me start off with my work uses this exact model, so I am a bit biased off the start. I bought it because the one we have at work is reliable and does everything you need it to. Was very surprised at the price and it almost made me worried with how cheap it was. But I was very happily surprised, it heats up fast and accurately (has the option to calibrate if you have a way to measure the temperature) it’s not the most portable unit but it can be moved. The grip on both the iron and the hot air gun are very comfortable and it comes with additional tips that so far have been very good! All in all I would buy this again!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2024This is a good hot air and solder rework station! It comes with the goodies shown in the Amazon pictures. Excellent value. One thing to remember is to check the spacing on these pin terminals and the orientation before trying to hook it up. These pins are small and can bend easily and usually that's not an issue. Some of my pins pins on the hot air device were slightly out of alignment and it would not couple. I looked at the orientation...very specific...and saw a slight misalignment. I corrected the issue and it installed easily. If you try to force it, you will further bend or even break some pins. This is general advice and true with compact pin connections. The air flow and temperature is easily adjustable. The solder station is easily adjustable too. I love this instrument! It's definitely worth buying. My second photo shows the goodies in the box...It wasn't jumbled up when I got it...I was excited to see everything! The unit feels very solid and quality built.

But, it does the job well enough. The tip that was in the soldering iron when it came could not heat up a gnats a$$. So, at first I was very disappointed. However, one of the larger tips works great setting the temperature at the max. The hot air desoldering gun I have only used to heat up heat shrink tubes.. It does that great. As for the temperature settings being accurate… I am not so OCD as to care. Does it perform as a soldering iron? Yes, adequately so. does the heat gun do what I wanted it to do? Yes, adequately so.
The “accessories” that came with it are sub-par. However, they work adequately enough for my home lab.
So, for the money it does great. I can’t (and shouldn’t) expect more than that.
Had I the opportunity to do something different would I? Probably not.
Would I recommend this to others? Only with the above caveats. Some people are more particular.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2021I read some of the reviews and was a little skeptical about making this purchase at first, but the price point and the quality reivews on some YouTube channels convinced me to give it a shot. When the unit first arrived I plugged it into the wall and turned it on from the switch in the back, without even powering up the rest of the unit. It immediately blew my GFI breaker. So I reset the breaker and tried again. Same thing. I tried to isolate it on the GFI circuit and tried again. Same thing. So I tried a completely different GFI circuit, again isolating it and same thing. So I tried a 3rd GFI circuit and isolate it. Same deal. So I ran an extension cord into my kitchen and plugged it into the high power outlet that is not on a GFI breaker. This time the unit powered up. I tested the soldering iron and it seemed to work fine. So I switched over and tested the heater blower and when I lifted the unit out of its holder the whole unit made a LOUD POP sound and sparked with blue smoke. The unit would not turn on after that. I contacted support and they set me up with a free replacement immediately. So I packed up the unit as best I could in most of the original packaging. They had UPS come straight to my door for pickup service. Once the unit was in transit they immediately shipped me a replacement unit. Once I got it, I plugged it in and it worked like a dream! I was able to use it all day Sunday building out a power-signal junction board as seen in the photo. I am really happy with their support and responsiveness and promptness. You can tell the unit is really professionally built. It does the job very well and I'm able to work faster, solder more precisely and with better accuracy! They have replacement parts generally available. I highly recommend this unit!!

Images in this review - Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2024I have been repairing electronic circuits my entire life, mostly for the military. While this is nothing like the exotic solder/repair station the government provides, it's a very nice unit for the money. It works well and maintains and recovers temperature well. It is compact and does not take up a lot of room on the bench. The iron is comfortable in the hand and does not transfer heat where it is not wanted, like your hand. This is a great unit for the beginner or seasoned tech that does a little work on the side or for hobbies. I would even use it for light commercial use, but that's just a suggestion... j

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome station
Works very well. Heats up quickly and the sleep mode is efficient.
The desoldering station also works very well for heat shrink tubing/connectors.
Both soldering iron and desoldering air unit can be disconnected from the base if needed.
Only minor complaint is the power button that is in the back on the desoldering side so you need to be careful not to touch the hot metal when turning the unit off.

5.0 out of 5 stars Repeat customer
I purchased the previous model to this unit 862D+ almost 11 years ago. Other then having to swap out a voltage regulator due to a power surge a few years ago, it's worked perfectly 8 hours a day 5 days a week. 2 days ago the transformer finally died in it and while I probably could have repaired,it I decided to upgrade and so far I am impressed!!!
