Building a Reflow Oven

Puhui T-962A @ $250 does the job if you don't want to DIY.

I have both the Puhui T-962A and DIY conversion oven. The Puhui T962A will consistently burn your board. You solder joint will come out black as the temperature goes way beyond proper lead-free temp. You will never be able to solder any film capacitor. Any film cap you put into T962A will come out melted/exploded. It actually save your time to build you own oven then by the off-the-shelf T962.

Works fine for us! Haven't had any issues to date, must have done over 100 different boards. There is third party firmware[0] for better control including an active fan if you run in to issues. Thanks for the tip though.
