Like Bryn said the Mac is a great choice if you don't really know for what platforms you want to code programs,but then again you can always run the MacOS on windows with the use of a Virtual Machine.
Thanks for the suggestion. The only downside I found with the Chinese website are I bought a 3D printer for my self last year from banggood and I payed like R1 200 for shipping and customs came and I had to pay another R1 000 so that's the only reason why I would rather buy from amazon since...
Well... TBH I don't really know... I do want to work on arduino based projects and the only reason I actually looked at the SMD work station was, because I like the idea of using the heat gun for heat shrink and not have those ugly burn marks like you get when you accidentally leave a lighters...
Yeah I will hope so:ROFL: but then again I'm no expert and just started to get into this hobby since I'm going to study software dev in 2 years and we are going to work with Microbotics (arduinos and raspberry pis) so I just want to start practicing my soldering technique, and I surely don't...
The only reason for that is I haven't found a good but still cheap soldering station here where you can actually see the temps of both the soldering gun and the heat gun on a display.
Hey guys I need your help with something. I am looking to buy this soldering station https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07S4GPM66/ref=ox_sc_act_title_16?smid=A3W1GP4TQNGUVI&psc=1 but it is a 110V system is there anyway I can safely use it here in SA with our 220 - 240 V power?
