There’s an argument to be made about not wanting combustion products in whatever space you’re working in, but soldering already releases fumes that really should be ventilated or at least run through a particulate filter.
My Portasol or Pyropen are going to be much more maneuverable in tight spaces than this thing. Way cheaper, and no batteries to die or need replacement.
