well depends on the grade of solder paste they used in the factory. Some will reflow at lower temperatures and others at higher.

all depends.

but BRAVO!! at least i added some inspiration to this thread by doing something that most people wouldnt... LETS BRING THESE MACHINES ALIVE!!!! hehe

P.S. I cleaned the oven out the best i could.

Yes i use the heat gun to bump it over the reflow point. and oven to keep it just under. I do this because i dont want to reflow EVERYTHING.. if i wanted to reflow all of it, i suppose i could use just the oven IF it can get to a high enough temp. i havent tried it. maybe i should. muaaahahahhaahahah
