New soldeting tip

I still a noob at soldering So this project will be challenging and educative.
My initial tests prooved difficult and I thought I didn’t get enough heat to melt the solder.
So I ordered a chiselled tip for the Hakko FX-888D (type T18-D16),

Hakko chiselled tip

to see how it goes compared to the default pointy one and a fan.

It probably isn’t the most efficiant tool for venting the fumes
but it should be enough for my low usage and it will also double as a nice fan/lamp when camping.
