Eastern Japan's electrical grid is 100v at 50hz. Western Japan is 110/120v at 60hz. Two different power grids on one island country. This can be made to safely work here in North America with a simple, cheap mod. It has been listed here in the reviews, a number of electronics websites like eevblog, and even a YouTube video showing a step by step. You can also use an inverter if you have one, but it should be at least 500 watts at a minimum. The nominal wattage value for this version is approximately 100 watts. However during heatup, it can jump more than four times the nominal value. If your inverter can't deliver that, it will keep blowing it's fuses. You get everything in this version that you do with the US version with exception of the manual. Of course you get the Japanese version of that. This unit works very well for its intended purposes. It's a portable/field desoldering tool. It was never intended to be a bench tool. It is heavy compared to bench based desoldering tools. It will fatigue your wrists quickly if you try to desolder several 40 pin dip chips. I use this on arcade machines that getting the boards to the bench is more of a pita. So I can more easily bring this tool to the machine and it's grat for that. I use a couple of pace desoldering machines at the bench. They are night and day better but used in a different environment because it's the bench. You will want to get a couple of different sized tips, cleaning rods, filter packs, and a hakko 633 stand with the money you save getting this version. You can use this as a one and only desoldering tool at the bench, but be ready to learn it's quirks. It requires more frequent cleaning than a bench model, it's heavy at a couple of pounds compared to 6 to 8 oz of a bench model, and it's balanced very poorly because it needs to have the pump in the unit itself. All of this can really irritate the user unless they are aware of these issues up front. The 1.0mm included tip is a wee bit to large for many leads and you will struggle to make it work. Get a 0.8 mm for things like passive components like resistors, and capacitors. This really is a good value, for a good tool. Just mod it or use a good inverter. If you run it off 120v it will slowly overdrive and kill the pump. The single most complex and expensive item to replace. It's great for bringing the tool to the thing your working on when you can't easily work the other way. ***EDIT*** I just thought I would add in the fact that the heating element is the same one on the American model, and doesn't require modding. It can safely run on 100v or 120v. It's the pump that needs a pair of 300ohm resistors to replace the ones already on the circuit board. Or the power inverter. The pump replacement would have to be the Japanese model if you don't do the mod because of the power differences. Review: Easy to use, great performance. - This thing is amazing. Some people here complain that this is a Japanese 100v version. Yeah, it is. But, if you are buying a tool this sophisticated, is it safe to assume that you are a tech, and that you should have a Variac in your possession? And at substantial savings over the US version, I certainly wouldn’t complain. It works great, period, and it’s better than any imitations out there. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07BKSLLG9 | | Additional Features | Heavy Duty | | Best Sellers Rank | #44,613 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #97 in Soldering Irons | | Brand | Hakko | | Brand Name | Hakko | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 309 Reviews | | Head Style | Pencil | | Heating Element | Ceramic | | Included Components | simple iron holder, carrying case, various nozzles | | Item Weight | 3 Pounds | | Manufacturer | AMERICAN HAKKO PRODUCTS, INC | | Manufacturer Part Number | FR-301 | | Model Number | FR-301 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Special Feature | Heavy Duty | | Specific Uses For Product | Industrial Use | | Style Name | Pencil | | UPC | 641328076416 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Upper Temperature Rating | 500 Degrees Celsius | | Wattage | 98 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hakko - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Special Feature:** Heavy Duty - **Specific Uses For Product:** Industrial Use - **Wattage:** 98 watts ## Images ![FR-301 Portable Desoldering Tool - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51AQ2EY9BPL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Operating voltage** A: This unit is an FR-301-81 which is the version for Japan with a supply voltage of 100v.

Everyone on youtube also seem to love this tool. *by T***H on May 1, 2026* Make sure you do not buy the Japanese version. The element will last, since you can turn down the heat, but the vacuum pump runs a lot fast. Japanese version rated at 100 volts. US electrical grid is 110-120. keep that in mind. As far as the unit. This thing "sucks" (pun intended). I have using the mechanical ones for years. I wish I would spent the money years ago. Not sure how long this unit has been out, but WOW its very helpful. Speeds things right now. What use to make me angry, I dont mind doing one bit. I love this thing. ## Frequently Bought Together - FR-301 Portable Desoldering Tool - Hakko 633-01 – Soldering Iron Holder with 599B Tip Cleaner - Hakko N61-10 Desoldering Nozzle, 1.6mm, Silver --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/66432339-fr-301-portable-desoldering-tool](https://www.desertcart.in/products/66432339-fr-301-portable-desoldering-tool) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-06-10*
