I was wondering about any opinions on 3 different soldering irons I'm looking at. 1. Is a butane one rated at 70W but is a multi-fuction (torch, foam cutter) and comes in a nice case. 2.Second one is a Weller 25W with three different tips 3. THe third one is kind of like a base station with an adjustable wattage from 5-40W. I like the first one , because of the portability, but am concerned the wattage may be two high. The other two I'm undecided. Any soldering tips or info would be great. Also is there a solder with a lower melting point to use in the hobby? Thanks
