Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)First thing I noticed... this thing is very quiet, yet still seems to pull the fumes away fairly well. Fumes within 6" or so get sucked right away and just disappear. Up to 12" away, most of it gets sucked in. But beyond that, warmed solder fumes tend to float up and away. Therefore, its position is important and the portability of it makes it easy to reposition.
If you use standard solder spools, this thing comes with a very nifty spool holder/dispenser built into the base, though evidently this product is also used in nail salons to reduce fingernail dust, in which case they probably wonder what the heck that spool thingy is for.
There are two colored lights (LED's) that remind you which side is "input" and which is "output". Cute.
A recent article has indicated that the recent lead-free solders create fumes that are actually more toxic than those from lead-based solders, so if you solder, you want to have something like this.
This unit won't clean up a large amount of air in a big area like a good HEPA unit (e.g., Hunter, etc.), but for localized fume sources you can't beat the performance/price of this gem.
This is another product that continues to draw a tiny amount of "phantom" power (maybe less than a watt) even with the switch "off", via the AC adapter. I prefer devices that are really "off" when you turn them off, but that's pretty rare these days.
