first look: KAIWEETS KETS02 Soldering Iron
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- Kaiweets sent me their "KETS02 Smart Digital Soldering Iron" to take a look at.
Coupled with a PD capable battery pack and its a nice little portable soldering solution for field repairs and similar uses.

This isn't the only way to do it.
It's probably not the best way to do it.
But it's how I did it.
The cap is an excellent idea! My miniware irons do no have that and now I know there is an iron that does have it... I miss it :) Btw... 300 C on an XLR connector is not the way I would go, 350C at least. I think it would have preformed better that way. Thanks for the review! Ow and yes... we Dutch can read English :)
The soldering iron tip debate - at least no one will argue that you wewren't holding the wrong end!
Interesting wee revue.
350c is my go to. And lead solder
The UI is better than my Hakko. Although the stand comes from the Hakko school of design. I do love pretty much everything Kaiweets makes and I enjoyed the demo.
Your hakko said you're a hakko hehehe. Long time no speak brother. Got some extra stuff to sell if you're interested brother. Or trade for an old fluke hehehe.
I have the kaiweets current clamp with the oled screen and it's an amazing meter. It came out 3 years ago and hasn't dropped below 100 here in canada.
I felt like all I did is complain brother so I've been radio silent for a while.
My kaiweets current clamp is amongst my best meters. The price hasn't dropped in the 2 years it's been out either. I sent that hantek clamp back.
Mine is coming soon! I hope ot will perform good, this is my second ever soldering iron!
I like that End Cap. I have two different irons and I wish I could buy another but I think ill save this as a recommendation if I hear of someone looking for one.
I do like this type and all the stuff it comes with looks good.
Well, I was like, this looks insanely familiar. So I went to my drawer of stuff that I received like 2 months ago. Different box but check out FNIRSI HS-01, exactly the same, different packaging.
I only tested it out once and it went back in the box. Apart from the old Wellers that have been out of use for years now I use the TS-100 or the cheapo sh72 which actually does an amazing job for quick little power things like connectors etc. So this one acts as a(nother) spare.
I don't have a real electronic bench to fix stuff and I like natural light so I take a 18V powertool battery outside when the weather is nice to power them. Hence I also soldered connecting them directly to my 18V solar panels.
I prefer that tip also. I believe it’s a BC2.
Bc2 is my go to for dip. K for plastic welding and jbc 210 k for smd. I have way too many stations
I got the Pinecil version a couple years ago with all the accessories. It's very similar. Picked up a full 20v PD power bank to go with it. works very well for quick field jobs. it's more parts to carry than a butane powered unit, but much more controlled heat!
Butane is scary. I have a 6s lipo battery and a ksger. Haha
@@jstro-hobbytech lipos are way scarier than butane though. I have a 18650 battery for my portable irons, mellow and safe compared to lipo.
Looks good to me. I would be using my 18volt 5ah Makita tool batteries, so I would have to source a beefy USB C jack that I could solder to the power tap for the Makita batteries. Not sure where to find those, and I would want that on hand and soldered up before the iron arrives. But it seems like it would be worth all that fuss.
That's a good plan. I do have some tool batteries out in the garage...
Flux needs 340C to work.
The GUI on a tiny mono-color screen reminds me strongly of MHP30, all the way down to the hard-to-use aspect.
At least in Europe this should be easier to get than the pinecil
This is the same iron sold by FNIRSI with Model number HS-01. IronOS does not support this iron yet.
Very good
300C is a bit low, set it to 350 or 400, it will make the soldering much easier
Yes it does.
I keep my usual bench iron at 350.
I was just testing using their factory default.
@@pileofstuff If the temperature was set to 350C when unsoldering/soldering the lead from the DIN plug then the performance of the iron was rather underwhelming
I was just going to add a comment, it looked like it wasn't hot enough for the connector
@@Bob_Burton- it was clearly shown in the video that he set the temp to 300C, which is far too low for heavy soldering jobs like the mix cord and relay.
Setting a low temp actually increases the risk of overheating parts, since you need to leave the iron on there for ages to get the solder to melt.
I have FNIRSI hs-01and its quite good, I like it. Same exact piece, different label/name and much cheaper on amazon. sorry bud
My fav tip too....cheers.
I guess the usb port on the iron is not going to last. Should have a way to take the strain out of the plug.
Nope. That's wong. Ur rong. 😂You can't use that tip 😂 But seriously I like that tip too, it's a good one, but have you tried a knife tip yet? They are great for SMD soldering because you can solder both ends of a lil cap or resistor at the same time (just drown in flux). Anyways ... but seriously ... I have the Northridge Fix Mini soldering pen and it is awesome. However they provided a wimpy 5V PSU so I think I should get one that provides more current for it. The pen didn't hold up well when things became sufficiently heat sinked, but perhaps it just needs more juice! 🍺Thanks for sharing!
Thats a nice iron

@@andrewkieran8942 don't give me your jagged little pill+
Does it go into standby when not moved for a bit? Glad to hear it has a silicone cable. So many miss that detail.
Yes. There is a timer in the settings you can adjust the delay
New soldering hobbyist here, I appreciate your review.
You used a tacky substance to hold the header you were soldering what is it? Do u have an Amazon link to it?
I like the unit only used it once for a kit I was building. I do wish they sell a hard case for it to hold the iron itself and the accessories.
It's commonly called "blue tac", though there are several other brands (in other colours).
I get mine from the dollar store. It's sold for hanging posters and similar things.
I want to know, were you get 3 pin relay's, and how do they work ?
There's another contact on a lug at the non-board side of this relay.
Pretty bad review, since leaving it at under 300°C means it has no chance of quickly melting large joints. You should have set it at 350°C like you bench iron, then compared them.
09:39 300°C is not enough
330 to 350°C is workable
a further increase 0f 20°C when dealing with
Lead-free solder.
And for difficult jobs blend in some Low Melting point
SOLD-er
which of course has to be wicked off prior to SOLD-ering
anything to the joint or SOLD-er pad -
DO NOT SOLD-er with it
Use it only for DE-SOLD-ering joints that require a greater
temperature - which in itself is high-risk when one has
little or no experience in SOLD-ering -
Such inexperience can damage the PCB and circuit traces.
-- A higher temperature that is applied for a shorter period
is much better than a lower temperature applied for a
longer period.
The temperature in a commercial wave SOLD-ering system
operates at 350°C
A PCB about one foot in length is SOLD-ered in approximately
5 or 6 seconds
Bad design. The tip is too far from where you hold the soldering iron making precision soldering nearly impossible.
And they use proprietary tips so you will have to buy theirs.
Dutch people *think* they can speak multiple languages.
We just need to be able to read it in this case
