Hakko FX601-02 Adjustable Temperature Controlled Soldering Iron, 67 Watts..

Honestly the best soldering iron I ever used. PERIOD!!!!

I solder small wires on circuit boards and large ignition wires with no problem at all.

The big ignition wires, does it take long to get heated up?

It melts them within seconds.. including the power wire on hondas. I just wrap my wire on the ignition wire and touch it with my iron and touch the wire with the solder and it flows perfectly. It is really hot and heats up within seconds after you tun it on.
