I tried that a long time ago, and it was not even close to hot enough I'm afraid. You'd have to use really thin solder to be able to use it for sure!

Those solder stations look very tempting, but also very expensive. In any case look at the W reading, it's still gotta be enough!

And one thing is a "new solder". Re-soldering old ones are much more of a hassle! (needs to be hotter)
