I use a 15/30 watt soldering iron from radio shack. no matter what, i would recommend getting plenty of replacement tips. Even though theyre not ruined with a few installs, i usually change them every 2-3 jobs. at 99 cents its a small investment for good clean installs.

Thanks For The Info Guys, And Good Ol 40 Watt But I Need To Replace The Tip Though, But $100 For The Iron? Where'd You Get It?

I got my soldering iron at a local electronics store here. They deal almost exclusively with that kind of stuff. I've had it for years and I've never replaced the tip on it. As long as I keep it tinned both before and after use, it stays as shiny as the day I bought it. Weller soldering irons are pretty high quality and aren't necessarily needed, but I have the options to change out with a different wattage piece and ironing tip if need be.
