Duh, I'm a dumbass and was looking at the vol pot on the before pic
70w is more than enough in electric irons, I'm not sure how equivalent your butane thingy is. I use a temperature controlled station for fine work and a big 80w bastard for getting on and off the pots as quick as possible - it helps to have a big, instant concentration of heat in one spot so nothing melts inside. With those push/pulls, try grinding or filing the plating off the spot where you want to earth them. That plating hates solder. Tidy looking job btw
