I ordered this from AliExpress as my old soldering/hot air station is getting on a bit:
This is what came:
You can imagine my disappointment...
I don't even know what it is/does.
Can't fault Ali Express though, they had a refund to me for the full amount in less than 24 hours.
What I ordered vs what I received.

Sorry, I'm not making fun of you but of stupid sellers such the one you received your stuff from...
And even if you get your money back, it's a real waste of time.

Re: What I ordered vs what I received.
To be honest, I have no idea what it is or what it does, so if I'm using it wrong I'm not surprised!
