i bought this iron, but it doesn't have a chisel tip, and i don't think you can get a chisel tip for it, is 40W too hot because i've read 30-40W is what you want and the hotter the better. so what do you guys think, is it what i want, or should i return it? i don't really do any soldering, i need this to solder my controller to my motor, and to redo a few wires on my battery packs, after that it'll probably be shelved until a meaningless task arises.
