A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

I have nothing against soldering AJ. Just have to strain relief above the wick point.

I use the connectors that have solder in the middle and heat shrink at either end. Hit em with a heat gun to make em work. Couple of drawbacks are when you have multiple wire repairs in the same area it is difficult to isolate the wires and the damn things are so rigid it makes it rough to feed the wiring jumble back to a stored location. You gotta appreciate the finesse it took not to make this post X-rated, huh Earl? :O :O

Ok so that was a little rough from me, I will give you that; apologizes.

Agree with you on strain relief.   Well done.  :atbeer:

I figured Earl would have already chimed in with the wicking and wire pulling and shrinking in the middle in the end etc; he must be away.
