've soldered to these with a 35 watt iron. first, remove the connector from the chassis (to prevent the chassis acting like a heat sink) and tin the soldering flange. When you tin the flange, hold as much surface area of the soldering tip against it as you can to get good heat transfer. Then tin the wire. When you solder them together, heat the flange as before and press the wire into the solder on the flange. When it melts, the solder on the wire will follow quickly.That said, silver solder requires higher temperatures and have only done this with the lead-tin variety.
