Additionally, it doesn't seem like it gives you control over or the ability to verify the mating of the two wires. A solder joint isn't really designed to be a strong mechanical connection, but you at least want to make sure everything is mated right before you starting melting metal. I used to be a solder/ heatshrink guy, but recently I've moved to these and haven't looked back. You should give them a try. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01N1...b_b_asin_title The only drawback is that you need a special crimper that will not puncture the heatshrink sheath. The one I got was only $12 and very high quality. I now use these for every connection except audio directly to speakers. |
