Need a new soldering station :) - JBC vs Hakko

[JuanPC]

the LCD doesn't accurately reflect tip temperature in either case.

I have a Baku or Bakku 702B, amazing!
but when i purchased OEM ACME Brand Tips, the temperature was very different because the feedback resistor is 12ohms in the original, but the ACME Brand is different, a few ohms can make a big difference.

Mine does not stay at 180 it cools all the way down. I know this because I pulled the tips off manually. (plus it has a read out for the temperature)

All I'm saying is that when you compare two Irons for re-heating time, you should be fair & compare Apples-to-Apples, and take into account each starting Sleep mode T.

Is your Hakko starting Sleep T 24c ? 100c ? 180c ?
What Sleep T is your JBS configured to ?

These kind of things.
