I needed a heating element but none available so I found a Hakko 907 iron which is basically the same but the Komec is a cheap knock off copy.
Problem is the iorn is wired different so I rewired the pcboard at the iron connections (heater, sensor, ground)
ONE big problem-the led indicator light flashes.
I have a Hakko 936 schematic but it uses a zero voltage switch.
PLAN now is to utilize Komec 936 case and transformer and build a pcboard Hakko copy using the Hakko 907 iron unless anyone has a better solution?
 
According to my research Aoyue 936a (NOT Aoyue 936!)) is full copy of Hakko 936 station excluding socket gender. Female socket you can buy at Hakko site for ~$6.
 
I am in process of building

Have a working PIC controlled soldering iron that has an LCD display.
Just getting the little bugs out and adding an auto shut-off.
In my book if it doesn't say HAKKO it has little chance of being a genuine HAKKO
The PIC controlled with zero crossing (another add on I am hoping for, could be build for under $30 less transformer.
The iron off Ebay = $12, PIC = $4, LCD = $4, could be built on a perf-board.
The HAKKO schematic I found on the web turned out it had problems. Missing connections etc.
