Hi, I would like to try to help, but I think I need help in understanding your problem better. 1) do you see any discoloration of solder joints on the first side, after first side reflow? 2) after second side reflow, are solder joints on just the

Personally I'd take a Metcal MX500 over a 130W JBC every day, and we had hundreds at the last place. However, here we have lots of JBC's, and my engineers and solderers swear by them. Both are good irons and like any you need to get your tip choice
