[QUOTE="Bob Landry, post: 445155, member: 7025"] Use the terminals that have heat shrink on them. Crip with good crimpers, then heat witha heat gun until the adhesive oozes out around the wire jacket. You don't need to solder, in fact, ABYC says not to do it. Adding heat shrink to a standard crimped connector may not waterproof the end of the crimp and the exposed wire strands. The ones with heat shrink will. That's all you need. Marine wiring is not rocket science. [/QUOTE]
