Good luck finding used. Ersa is top quality but you pay for it. The IR from Ersa is a medium wavelength thus heating is consistent across the board despite different component densities and colors. PDR does not heat the same and thus you have to be m

Just another thought, your leaded boards might have been HASL, which for soldering always flows just a little bit better then other finishes.
