From you description, it sounds like the hot-air station is damaged already from the overvoltage.
I'm not sure how the Hakko would handle that condition. I can look into it.

The 120v version of the Hakko uses a different transformer than the 220v version, so yours would have likely overloaded at the higher voltage. It does appear to have a fuse which might have prevented more serious damage. You can try replacing that and see if it works with a proper step-down transformer.

Unfortunately, we can't accept returns on equipment that has been damaged in this way.

we only have 120V versions, if you were using a transformer it would hvae to be a really really large one, not just a plug replacer!
