Oh hey here we go. Apparently this device is called the "TS100" elsewhere. Here's a datasheet that answers my questions: http://imgmgr.banggood.com/images/upload/2015/11/TS100/TS100%20Soldering%20Iron%20Instruction%20Manual.pdf
That site also has tips, in more varieties (and at lower prices) than available here. http://www.banggood.com/Original-Replacement-Solder-Tip-For-TS100-Digital-LCD-Soldering-Iron-p-984215.html

nimakhaI've played with different power supplies to see what the difference is in operation. Using a 12V, it heated up to 300C in a little over 30 seconds...24V in just 5. The included 19V does it in about 8 seconds or so and mine has a pretty flexible cord on it. I don't worry about it being pulled off of the table when I set it down.
I used mine to put together all of the boards for my Christmas light displays over a period of about 10 hours or so of work. Even with hour+ sessions, the thing never felt warm to me and never quit. Getting another one in the current drop to give to my step-father after he saw how well it worked (former Navy electronics tech with decades of soldering behind him).
