You might want to "tighten" the tip to iron connection itself. Wellers, especially those of old - did this all the time. A slightly resistive poorly tightened tip connection - and one will get 50% or less heat conduction! For me - a simple Circuit Specialists Inc. soldering station - is much better, and less costly. Tips are reasonable. I'm not in the soldering business, and none of them last all that long.
