[QUOTE="Bob Landry, post: 240275, member: 7025"] Good point. Simply soldering does not provide a good mechanical connection. if you are going to solder, you still need to crimp. BTW twist-on top hat connectors/wire nuts are a no-no on boats and trailers. I've seen so many electrical issues on boats, you just can't be too thorough on this stuff. Nothing is more frustrationg than to have to troubleshoot a wiring problem after everything has been tied and tucked out of sight. [/QUOTE]
