Welcome, this is another video with More Gadget Tech Thoughts.
After using the Aoyue 8800 De-Soldering gun for a month when I decided to change the filter design. It easier to clean and maintain and may even be better in the long term then the original design.
Since this video I have been using it for a couple months now. So I will be releasing an update video to see how it has held up and decide if its a better design then the original design.
