I have Xytronic 988D. It works OK but the sucked up solder has to go through a tube that is too far from the heater. It plugs up regularly as the solder cools too much before exiting the tube. I have to let the unit heat up for a long time to get the tube hot enough. The unit also lhas a fine tip soldiering iron for fine work on PC boards. I would like to know how you like the unit in the long run.
