to solder my caps on, I stripped the wires just above the pcb and tinned and soldered the wires there. a little liquid electrical tape after to seal it back up. I use a big arse soldering gun to solder. I am too impatient for the pencil to heat up. it's not practical for soldering small things, though my bud that makes electronic stuff laughs at some of the small joints I have gotten soldered with such a big gun... lots of practice I guess hehe. I dig holding a trigger for a few seconds and presto, hot enough to solder even battery bars. if I have to solder a pcb I will use the pencil, but most times the gun works for me.
