ShadowReaper Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Hello,I am thinking of buying the Hakko FX888 soldering station http://www.hakko.com/english/products/hakko_fx888.htmlThe problem is that the one I found requires input voltage of 110V, but I am in Europe and the input voltage is 220V... If I buy a transformer will it be fine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero999 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Yes, as long as the transformer is rated to 70VA or more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowReaper Posted November 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Are 70watts enough? I was thinking about a 200watt transformer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero999 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Why would you waste money on 200W?Read the specification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkoziol7 Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 There is no need to buy a greater transformer that you really need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamrecycling Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Looks good, i was considering on purchasing a unit soon. We do a lot of board repairs. I , myself still trying to get well equipped in the technique tho. Been mainly testing on dead devices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
