'''Known quirks''' are that the case is not grounded and in case of a short circuit the case becomes hot (live). User should ground the case out of the box.<br>

===Desoldering Stations (THT)===
====ZD-915====
A cheap entry level hobbyist station. It works good, but the build quality is backed up by the price, the build quality is not a lot (you get what you pay for).<br>
However spare parts are readily available and are extremely cheap. The handle gets a lot of play on it if you plan on using it for some serious amonnt of work in no time.<br>
Besides that I think this station still performs nice if you plan to use it only for prototypes or hobby projects.<br>

====Quick 201B ESD====
The 201B is a nice solid station that isn't going to break the bank with readily available spare parts. Heat dissipation of 90W, temprature range of 200÷450°C, ESD safe, LED display (3 digit), good temperature stabilization.<br>
The only thing it is missing is a sleep function with tilt sensor in the handle, if you don't use it turn it off it or will wear the heating element faster.<br>
The station was tested and used a lot the heating element was already replaced once before and it still runs perfectly fine.<br>
A good heating element measures 1.1ohms the failure mode of a bad heating element is it going open. The display will show the H-E error indicating the heating element failed.<br>
Spare parts are easy to find the replacing of the heating element was easy too. The station overal has a solid good build quality and performs well.
