I had a couple of those Woolies Ward&Goldstone plastic plugs with the neon in the cover; one of them was fitted to a "Dee Gee" soldering-iron with a red flex (also bought from Woolies) I had as a student.
The iron worked OK, but the copper bit seized into the alloy element-holder and attempts to drill it out were catastrophically destructive.
