This is what I use, it is a Portasol Super Pro Mk2, 25-125watts and best of all zero wires which means no fighting with your wire as you try to get a good joint and if you have a joint fail when your out you can just resolder it and carry on.
This comes as a kit with a small tip, big tip, hot knife, hot air blower, hot air deflector for heatshrink and with no tip it becomes a blowtorch 8)
I would highly recommend this as it is powerful(I struggled soldering big wires with a 50watt iron and this makes it a breeze) portable, easy to use and it cost £60 to my door.
Whilst using the 50watt iron i found out how important it is to have a clean and if possible roughed up joint, a clean tip, tinning joints and using flux just makes it so much easier if your struggling.
Don't know about you guys but i hate wires on soldering irons.
anyhow if you get stuck just search or ask hope you sort it all out"thumbsup"
