Hmmm, not sure what would be the impact if you use it in vacuum.  Better not ;-).

Subject: [TN] Butane Soldering Irons

Since we hand solder outside of the normal manufacturing floor, our technicians are requesting to use a butane soldering iron. I have no previous experience with this type of soldering iron. With a temperature setting of 1076°F it seems rather high and potentially damaging to resulting solder connection, insulation, people, etc.

Any thoughts from experience would be most appreciated.

Gregg
