But the soldering iron is too large, too high power, and the lowest controlled temperature setting is too hot.
Use the description of this one when shopping for an appropriate size and type of soldering iron:

(That one is about 9USD.)
(And it is adjustable temperature not controlled temperature - a point that probably got lost in the translation.)

It's also about $40 in shipping from India. Looking at soldering stations that allow that level of temperature control (dropping below 200C in general), I'm not seeing many options below ~$25-$40, and they quickly start climbing into triple digits.
Oh well, a permanent install can't happen anyways because of the lack of usable space on my device so I'll probably just get the one I saw on amazon as a general purpose iron and figure out a no-solder method of connecting.
