I started with a 300w (too heavy and tip degraded within a week) and a cheap 100w (tip burnt out withing a few weeks).

Settled on Weller W100PG Weller Farenheit Heavy Duty Soldering Iron with CT6F7 Tip, 100 Watt, 700 Degree. Have done 5,000+ cells with a couple of these.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002I7X7ZS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I
use #6 twisted bare copperfor busbars.

I'm hoping you mean "liking" and not "licking". Otherwise, licking it while it was hot would be very very bad for your tongue health :p
