Mine is 25Watt and is good for the little jobs I do... All I need is a bunch of "sharp" tips to be able to solder small vias... A powerful soldering iron ca burn fast your thin tips if you don't have a soldering station - I think... I don't have that. Also, it can burn fast all the flux before making the joint. Too much flux and a powerful soldering iron can float your traces in no time. You need to be very skilled to work with it.
Better a super-magnifying glass (monocle or with "leg" support), a small solder iron and 0.4, 0.5 mm diameter solder wire. This is what it works for me.
