How makes that and do you have a pic ???You can get a handheld 40W iron with a proper screw-on Hakko style tip AND internal electronic temperature regulation for about $25. I have one in my carry bag for field work.
When I was in Votech school for telecommunications .. I used a 15 watt micro soldering iron for soldering all my through whole parts ... I forgot who made it but it was a black handle with a blue cushion and was really thin ... I have a very cheap ($7) 15W iron from RadioShack, and it still works great, since I tinned it at the start of the very first use.
Hope this helps!
