in the US only the 601 is available and it is in the 70$ range. i can't recommend the 888d anymore after my experience with it. first, it's precise but not accurate. the microcontroller is very good at grabbing a temperature value from the temperature measurement device, but the temperature measurement device is extremely inaccurate over time, its calibration wanders to the point of uselessness. second, the heater is simply too small for the amount of power it dissipates. at my duty cycle, i was looking at a new heater every 8-9 months maximum, and worse, the heater is soldered directly to the iron board. there are no quick disconnects (unlikely, say, the 808).
re: the non-temperature controlled wp35 and the hakko dash line: both heat up to a maximum of 450C, but actual temperature will fluctuate due to the lack of temperature regulation hardware. this is actually a fine thing if you use your iron properly. however, it's a little hotter than i'd like. the cl1481 maxes out at about 400C, which i'm much more comfortable with. that is hot enough to desolder dreadful lead-free solder and replace it with leaded solder (yay), but it's significantly more difficult to burn a board at a max of 400C.
