How to solder wires

[taperecorder]

i cant believe how easy to understand and quick this video is, most take 5-10 minutes to show what this video did in under a minute

Yeh it’s both, it also take practice like anything in life, there’s also something called “flux paste” it also helps alot to get it to bond where u can’t twist the wires and need to just solder the end of a wire to something, like rc electric motors etc..
This guy is def doing it right tho!

Thanks man, this is EXACTLY the video I needed.

[anthonygutierrez]

Thanks for your help, that helps a lot

Is it the wire or the tool that puts the melted metal on? Or both? Maybe the solder tool just heats the wires to help with the melted transfer?

For a hobbyist it is ok. The technique is good. However, it would not pass any of the soldering standards (IPC etc). There is too much solder, the isulation is melted back, solder has wicked up to or under the insulation, the wire is twisted too much and messy and a bunch of other stuff. But ok for hobbyists.

after watching a dozen videos, this is literally hours I’ve wasted in a few seconds to get it finally to solder. I was doing it the first way without getting any on the tip and was getting very frustrated. Some people make rocket science out checkers

What AWG wires are you using? I have never had such a strong joint.

[danielpoung]

so burning two connections and tie it together as one.

[SuperSensei]

That's too much solder and the wire probably has a lot of wicking. Other than that the connection looks fine for a hobbyist or a diy but not acceptable professionally. Good tutorial for first timers though 👍

Omg this! you basically have to solder the iron to the wire and that heats the wire up faster....right?

Edit: Ok more importantly switch out your head, if you're using a finer point head it's just not gonna work like this

[kevinarmstrong]

Wrong! He didn't use flux. And if you say the soder has flux. Still wrong.

[Laqota]

Wrong.

Always solder from the top and heat the bottom. Solder will melt through the wires and bond them instead of just the surface.

You should always tin your iron too. Makes it easier.

Lead free huh? Pretty food work for lead free

[skyforce]

No heat shrink no flux dam he even peeled back like 3 feet from the ends 🤣 man that’s sloppy as hell

[ryanmagsino]

I think heat shrink is enough for this kind of wirings....
