Made this unholy contraption to get the full 65w out of my #TS100 #solderingiron. 20V from a PD trigger is fed into a boost converter to get 24V and get full power.
I previously used the PD voltage directly, which works fine but limits the power somewhat. #electronics

For my solderingiron i use that silicone thingy to quickly change from for example change from a chisle tip to a wedge tip.
For the tips on a desoldering iron have different hole sizes so for best heat transfer you should use a desoldering tip close to the size of the pin you are trying to desolder.

I just love its quick heat-up time of like 12 secs

I tried out the aluminum shim trick (mentioned by @todbot.com in the latest @thebootloader.net episode) to desolder that LED without preheating the PCB and risking popping other LEDs. It worked great!
