What is the focal distance of this product ? i want to use it for soldering small smd parts and avoid soldering my face! :d

There are four possible combinations of the lenses, which give 38mm, 30mm, 20mm, and 15mm.

on its lowest power it's about 2&1/2 feet, on the medium power it's about 1 &1/2 feet. I haven't used the high power yet.

With out the small glass about 6" to2', with it about 4"to 6" depending on your eyesight.

It will depend upon your eyesight and if you use unit with or without glasses/contacts. I use my unit for crochet, bead work. I don't hold work close to my face unless I am counting stitches or beads or to check on details. I also do hidden object games on computer. For me that is 24 inches distant and as close as 4 inches close. The light is very bright and lights up work well.

The real catch to soldering is more the using the right tinning then the solder it's self. Some like what i've linked below works for many metals (not well on stainless still, that requires a more specific tinning)Ruby Chemical 2OZ Liquid Rubyfluid

I have this exact unit, and use it daily for soldering audio cables. It works for any type of soldering, not just SMD work. It's a great unit for the money.

Thanks for quick reply, focal point is different on most CPC OTA sizes, so even if threads ok , still may not focus properly. Thanks again.

I use this silver solder with a electric soldering iron, works real good as long as your irons heat range will melt it. Ron

362F is really low for soldering though. Try it at 750. Also, is your temp gun accurate? I reccomend purchasig an actual tip thermometer.

Hello,it use the brightest 3528 SMD LEDs,The luminous flux about 500~550lLumens at DC 11.5V to DC 12.8V ,(Notice: cann't work with above 13V or above or 14V,maybe very hot and Burned out). product Length: 2.28in ,the length of the package is 4 inches thanks!

No, it doesn't generate enough heat to melt solder or even pinpoint like a soldering gun. I see the other guy said it would but I still doubt it. You should take a piece of solder and hold the heat gun on it and see if it will melt. This will answer your question if you don't believe my answer.

Lol.sorry amazon had another purchase above this question "100mhz oscilloscope" as for the soldering station yes it will work fine .It comes with several tips and some nice fine tips for this work .I've worked with several smt boards with this unit and been using it for years now and never had any problems with it.its well built and very reliable. I highly recommend for your soldering needs .hope this helps and please disregard the previous answer concerning the oscilloscope

I use one to work/solder surface mount electronics to printed circuit boards (PCBs). I love it but naturally if the parts get too small... I should have added that over the years I've use many magnified extension lights to work on PCBs, all had external springs. This light does not have external springs and seems to be much smoother when trying to position it for work. I haven't noticed any distortion when working on 0603 parts and don't want to go much smaller than that.I just ordered one for personal use.

Hot enough to melt the solder but not the came. Try it on a test piece of came...if the came melts, the iron is too hot.

Sorry I have no idea that that is, I use it in jewelry making. I would assume it would work in any soldering situation but I've only used it using silver solder used in jewelry.

Hello, dear friend, we are sorry to tell you that the ' solderless,no welding' means there is no solder connector in the middle of each 20M. Sorry for the misleading. Any other questions, please kindly share with us. It is our great honor to serve you. Best regards, Lemonbest

I've been using it to solder resistors and wires to pc boards. Works grat so far. I am a newbie with limited skills, but I have not had any problems so far.

Good light output for the area of the magnifier, I do small electronic soldering with poor eyesight

I dont know the focal length but have used it succesfully from 2" from the specimen to 14". You should easily work with your hands between the specimen and scope. Focus takes a minute, and make sure you buy the articulating stand. Computer viewing is simple.

I would have my doubts. It didn't work well with heat applications for me. When it gets too hot it seems to get soft. It may depend on how hot it gets . . . not sure. I would probably try solder for that. (?) Dale
