Should I use it, or is there any danger of "frying" pots, caps, or else?
I wouldn't use it to solder a cap, but it would be good for soldering wires to the back of the pot. With more watts, the solder will melt quicker and the pot will probably heat up less than with a lower watt iron applied for a long time.
