This is the one I use: http://www.web-tronics.com/autsolirstat.html
Works great, heats up in about 30-40seconds. Comes with a needle point tip, so you will need a wider tip, but works excellent. Has all the features of more expensive units.

I just got this one and it seems pretty good so far. I had to replace my 1995 weller station that died this summer.

All i have to say is Hakko 936, i know its a little expensive but it works flawlessley, totally worth it. As far as tips for it, Hakko has literally like 40 different kinds for it. Save up and buy it.

Just go to Menards and buy the $13.99 40 Watt Wide chisel tip Weller and then go buy an nice solder stand/station that holds the sponge and iron, you'll have about $20-$25 into the perfect iron to use. anything else is just over kill.
