* this is for removing or replacing delicate surface-mount components including BGA chips like eMMC
* we have two of them, the handpiece is similar on both, but the base and control are different
* the handpiece contains a 150 watt 12 volt halogen bulb, inside a special expensive gold-foiled reflector
* the light bulb is cheap and easy to find, the reflector is irreplacable
* the handpiece rests in a cooling fan since it gets hot during use
* the tip of the handpiece contains a piece of glass that blocks visible light (so you don't get blinded while using it)
