Watt Wattage soldering iron !
What wattage soldering irons are people using ?
I need to solder some NIMH cells up, mine isnt up to the job.
Also what do people use for doing there motors and ESC ?
Thanks

You might want to buy two soldering irons and use both of them while soldering. It really helps to hit the spot you want to solder with two irons so you're not holding it on the cell for too long...
It's better to hit something for a shorter time with two irons, than with a single iron.
Just my $0.02

I use a 30W which has a button to bump it up to 120W for a max of 30 seconds. Works great and I can solder 10GA wire without pulling my hair out now.

Cheap 40W soldering iron will work for just about anything hobby related.
