Small change, I have the earlier H525, which for some reason seems to cost more. Smaller LCD display seems to be the main difference.

Speed 1 is very slow, it has reverse and stop, and max temp is 338F. I'm sure I could trick it into going higher but I will open it first to make sure the supports can take it. And I need to mod it a bit to allow 0.0625 thick boards.
