I'm slowly building my arsenal of SMT tools, my latest toy is a USED Zephyrtronics ZT-2 hot air pencil.
Since this is used, I have no way to compare it's operation to a properly working ZT-2.
I have a question to anyone that has used a ZT-2 hot air pencil.
Do you find the ZT-2 blow less air (and not as forceful) than other typical hot-air systems?
Also, the max hot air tip temperature I can measure on the ZT-2 is average of 320C, max of 350C. It doesn't seem to go as hot as my other hot-air soldering system - which can reach 380C easily, and 420C+ max
