  • Warning extremely dangerous fire hazard
Size: 1-(Pack)
This is a device specifically created to absorb smoke. Imagine my surprise and alarm when a tiny flame of the type this device is specifically designed to be around caused the unit to not only catch fire but billow forth a ton of toxic smoke. This merits at least a warning but realistically, this product should be pulled because it is only a matter of time before this sets someone home on fire. It wasn't a slow flame either. More like a pile of leaves soaked in gasoline. The smoke was from burning plastic like what you get if you burn a styrofoam cup. Also, I did not expose the device to flame, the fan sucked the flame from quite a distance away. ... show more

  • Great little unit
Size: 1-(Pack)
Works exactly as it should. I think a lot of people reviewing extractors don't have the most reasonable expectations for how these things work (which is a physics problem, not a problem with Hakko). I'll try to briefly cover why this unit is just fine for its price and promise. Pros: Quick setup and use. Pop the filter onto the front grate, plug it in, flip the switch. You're extracting. Good extraction. Anything close to the unit will be pulled through. As the manual notes, the most efficient use of the unit is to lay it face-down with your soldering job directly in front of the unit on your bench, so that the fumes go straight into the unit's lower grill. Used this way, the unit is amazing. Set upright, it does a better job generally clearing a room, e.g. if your shop is full of smoke and you need to leave the unit on for a while to process as much air in the room as it can. Either way, it does exactly what it promises. Hakko also sells a desktop arm. Really, the best way to extract maximum fumes with a unit of this sort would be to buy an arm to hold the unit right above your workspace. The hot fumes naturally rise, meaning it's much easier for the extractor to catch them. If you really want the most bang possible for your buck, fashion some way to hold this unit over your project. Cons / Explaining Physics Will not suck air from three feet away. Sorry kids, but physics doesn't work that way. There's no way for a simple fan unit to be able to input a column of air from a distance. What the fan does, is create a low-pressure zone directly in front of the unit. That means air rushes into the unit in a roughly semi-spherical pattern. Yes, you will have to put your soldering job right in front of the unit to get efficient extraction. No, there's nothing Hakko can do to fix that, nor anyone else. If fumes really concern you and you can't get your unit closer to the extractor, either ventilate your whole room (wear a mask and get a restaraunt-style extractor hood), or get an arm to mount this unit directly over your workspace. Isn't deathly silent. I see a lot of people complaining, and really this unit is exactly as loud as fan this size would be sucking air through a filter. It's quiet for its class, although I'm sure it's relatively loud right by your ear under perfectly laboratory conditions. In a real workshop, this is the normal sound of a quality fan. No big deal. The only real con: The slightly bulky plastic construction, although rugged, does cut down on the airflow a bit. This is a smart compromise, valuing durability over raw efficiency, so it's hard to argue. But a little more design effort might have led to let's say 10% more airflow without hurting the durability. Overall: There's a reason this Hakko unit is beloved by many people. It's pretty much exactly what you expect. Get one. Extra tip: If you want your filter to last a little longer you can improvise a simple mesh screen, or use some cotton batting, in front of the carbon filter. A simple screen will prevent the filter from sucking in ambient dust, while still processing all the bad stuff that comes through. ... show more

  • I wish I'd had one many years ago
Size: 1-(Pack)
When I started in electronics we really didn't have much concern about lead in solder. I have spent years of my life hunched over a soldering bench breathing in who-knows-what not to mention the various solvents we sprayed on parts to clean them. I'm lucky I did not contract some awful malady from abusing my lungs like this. Who knew? The things we do for a paycheck, right? Now I know better. Lead solder is harmful. Wash hands after using. The smoke from soldering can't be much better for you. This extractor is a good investment in your health. The younger you are, the sooner you should buy one is what I am thinking. This thing is just a fan with a filter mounted in a very substantial housing. You can use it vertically or lay it down flat. Just get one. If nothing else, it stops the smoke from going up into you face and up your nose. Seriously, protect your health. ... show more

  • Disappointed, save your money or build your own!
Size: 1-(Pack)
I knew I was not going to get an inline 8" ducted system but I was hoping for a little more than a 6" working distance. I am a Hakko Fan, all my soldering stations (3) are Hakko and would not trade them for anything but this is the first product that I have been disappointed in. As I said I knew it was not going to pull from 2' but come on Hakko, I expect more from your brand. Ok off my soap box now, save $50 and get one of the $30 desktop units and buy the Hakko filters unless you like the Hakko colors. On the plus side the build quality is very good, typical Hakko, very small footprint on your work station in the stand up position. I did not get the boom stand for the unit that allows you to put it higher but not sure how much difference that would make. Bottom line for me is you have two Hakko choices the FA400-04 for $80 and the huge jump to the Hakko FA430 Fume Extractor with C1571 Exhaust Arm Kit for $700. The Hakko FA430 Fume Extractor works great but is also noisy. I am sure you could get one for cheaper but I am hoping Hakko can come out with one that is in the mid price range between the two! For now I will pull the desktop up to my work and save my money for the FA430! ... show more

  • Love this design
Size: 1-(Pack)
Love this design. Although when I first plugged this in after receiving, I accidentally plugged it into my 220v strip and popped the motor ;/. When I called Hakko and asked to purchase a replacement fan they said they don’t sell them and I would need to purchase an entire new unit. Really I thought? This day and age? So, I naturally disassembled the unit and measured the fan, 40x120mm I think. Amazon sells AC Infinity fans and of course I bought both a 115v and 230v (Model HS1238B for the 220v). Fan arrived fast and I installed the AC Infinity after a few new clip/crimp ends on the AC lines. I attached this unit to a flexible arm on my bench and it works very well. I would have given five stars but the customer service was unexpectedly less than desired. ... show more
