What soldering iron to use for battery replacement.

Hi

My iPod nano 3rd generations charge has been getting lower recently and now it only lasts about 10 minutes so I have decided to replace the battery. I was wondering what soldering iron I should get? As I am not sure at how many watts it needs to be. Also if it make any difference I am a beginner at soldering. Thanks in advance.

You will want practice more than anything, you don't want to damage anything by accident. Ifixit has guides to help you out there.

I have a dual temp, 20/40W. but for most small stuff I use the 20W setting, I find it easier, but it ends up as personal preference.

Hope this helps.
