As long as you use a good crimper (sheesh volumes have been written about

that on this list), a "gas tight" crimp is as good as a solder and in some

ways better.



Less time consuming and wont wick solder farther into the wire than is need

leaving an area for the wire to break from vibration.



My vote, crimp and never look back, but use a *good* crimper and die set

made for the task
