I have a large, powerful soldering station and I pretty much exclusively use my pinecil instead. They're wonderful little tools, and they work well up to surprisingly large circuits. If your power supply is beefy enough, you can melt quite a bit of solder with flat tip and decent contact.

Similarly I used to dislike soldering (I used really cheap irons before) and thought it was due to my technique until I bought a Pinecil. For anyone else reading I suggest getting the additional tip sets, the long red USB-C to USB-C cable and the PinePower too if you can afford it, otherwise a laptop power supply with USB-C is good too usually.
