Don't get caught using that in an airliner cockpit unless your FOM/SOP says you can.

Way overkill. If the iron in room has leaks or melted polyester just call the front desk and have them bring a new one.

Let the iron warm up completely and then test it on the bottom part of the shirt first (the part that's tucked in).

If you must carry a battery (most devices now have enough battery capacity to easily last an entire FDP), use a good quality one (Anker works) and if it gets damaged get rid of it. A Li battery fire in the cockpit could ruin your whole day.
