Key Differences That Matter

Which One Should You Choose?

The H240 is the value pick — everything a phone repair bench needs at the entry price. Step up to the H400 if you do sustained micro-soldering where tighter temperature recovery between joints visibly improves solder quality, or if you want the newer control firmware.

QianLi H240 Soldering Station vs QianLi H400 Soldering Station — FAQ

Do both stations use the same tips?

Yes. Both are compatible with T12 and T245 cartridge tips, so an existing tip collection carries over between the two stations.

Is the H400 worth upgrading from the H240?

Only if temperature recovery matters to your work — heavy micro-soldering sessions benefit from the H400's faster response. For general connector and BGA repair, the H240 performs the same jobs.

Can both stations run on the same power setup?

Both are standard mains-powered digital stations with similar footprints, so they share the same bench power arrangement. Check the listed input specification for your region.
