The wattage rating of a soldering iron determines the amount of energy it consumes. Typically, most soldering irons use 30 watts of power.

AI Customer ServiceWattage expresses the soldering iron’s power consumption and indicates the tool’s capacity to generate heat. Simply put, the electric current entering the soldering iron flows through a resistor that heats up and generates heat. Bigger resistors produce more heat but consume more electricity.
Bigger resistors produce more heat but consume more electricity. Smaller resistors allow the current to flow more freely and, of course, produce less heat. In essence, high-power soldering irons with higher wattage generate more heat than those with lower wattage. How Does It Work? The concept is pretty straightforward, and it is simple physics.
Power consumption: Indicates the soldering iron’s power consumption expressed in Watts. Heat generation: High-power soldering irons can produce more heat than low-power ones. For example, a 100W soldering iron reaches significantly higher temperatures than one with 20W.
You need to match the wattage to the task you are doing. For typical soldering tasks like circuit boards etc., you want to use a lower wattage soldering iron, between 15 & 30 watts, and they will do the job just fine. For tasks involving heat sinks, motor casings, and 10 gauge copper wire, you will need at least a 50 watt soldering iron.
Soldering with an underpowered iron might damage plastic or glue around a part, and may produce a poor soldered joint. As a more extreme example, it would be hard to solder a battery lead for a car battery with a 30 watt iron, because the heat would be conducted away too rapidly for the soldering iron to heat it up.
A 30 watt 'simple soldering iron' is okay for modest electronics. Soldering ordinary through hole electronic components and thin (e.g. mm) wire, even the thin metal legs on DC power plugs and sockets, should be fine. A simple iron relies on thermal equilibrium to maintain its temperature. It loses as much energy as put in by the heating element.
