infowolfeWhy would you want to run all 8 in series? It'd be far better to run two parallel banks of four batteries arranged in series (14.8v, 18650s, or any li-ion battery, are multiples of 1.23v).
As long as you're past nominal voltage, there's no difference between running 12v and 24v. Wattage is wattage.
A single pack of 3 lithium-polymer would probably work fine. Li-poly discharges a bit differently than most other battery types and 11.1v would likely be enough.

AusgeflipptThis device doesn't have a buck or boost transformer inside. It connects your power source directly to the heating coils, so at higher voltages it draws more power and heats up faster. Take a look at the datasheet I linked above.

From the "comments" page: http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/Mini-Soldering-Iron-US-Standard-ShapeBC2-p-2494.html?ref=newInBazaar&ref=banner_depot "Halo Peter, operation voltage can be 12V - 24V, and electric current is 1.4A - 2.7A. But 24v with 2.7A make temperature increased quickly. Yes the power adapter works with 19V and 2.1A."
