Re: Wire butt connecters.

Yes Solder and heat shrink
All but connectors are a ticking time bomb waiting to fail at an in opportune time

to solder you need clean the copper to shiny bright copper twist together use electronic rated flux and electronic rated solder and a proper solder iron not a plumbing torch

Reason for electronic rating is its non acidic and wont damage the wiring or corrode it over time

For a solder iron I picked up a nice butane one
