Ok I need a soldering iron but the high wattage one's on sites like apex are £50ish (I dont want to really spend that much). I have seen this on e-bay but it just looks to good to be true! its new 60wt and only £8 in all.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/60W-240-VOLT-S...QQcmdZViewItem Does anyone know of any good quality irons that dont cost the earth? I also might buy some beefed up turnbukles in the future. Would Lunsford one be my best bet? which rod ends are best for these? RPM's? Would it be a good idea to get titanium ball studs if I get the above? Thanks in advance Craig.

Check on the availability of new tips and I doubt that is a long life tip. Otherwise it is a 60W iron. Good price. MRT do a better one though and it is 12v.
Lunsford do good ones but the AE ones are pretty durable to, as for ball studs, I would stick with the stock items, including the ball cups.

it is suitable for most work, motors, connectors but I wouldn't of thought soldering cells.

I run a brushless setup so it would be mainly cells and connectors I would be soldering.

the MRT one would last you far longer than the el-cheapo option but wouldn't be very suitable for soldering cells together.
