Recommendation for cordless soldering iron? (lemmy.world)

I'm looking for a good, reasonably priced cordless soldering iron as a gift.

Budget is around €50 - 150. It will mainly be used for hobby electronics, PCB soldering, and occasional small repairs.

Any recommendations? What specs should I look for? Any brands or models I should consider / avoid?

I'm based in Germany.

EDIT: Thanks for pointing out cordless is not the way to go. I sincerely hoped those would be useful nowadays.

I will go the cord way, powered by USB-C instead. Any tips for these devices are welcomed.

EDIT II: Thanks everybody. I decided to pick the Pinecil v2.

I use the Milwaukee M12 soldering iron a lot and it's great but a corded iron is always going to be better (unless your on top of a ladder).
