This quick video shows one method to connect 2 wires together. I made a full masterclass on creating a wire harness earlier this week:

Which method do you like better, and why?

You should drop an affiliate link in the description for those connectors. I’ll click and buy

That's why I'm grateful for this lil invention. That and the solder paste in the syringe. Remember I told you that my last experience with a soldering iron, I inadvertently held it as if it was a pen. Despite the complaints people have made about these connectors, I have never found any fault and never a need to revisit the connection if something doesn't seem right. What you did is the right way and the same way I use them. NOT. A. SINGLE. FAILURE.

Next time I use them I will put that twist in. When I used them before they didn't work well. Thanks for the tip!

I’m thrilled that they’ve revised the composition of the self solder heat shrink connectors. 20 ish years ago when I discovered them the heat gun would blow through the heat shrink exposing the solder before it would even have a chance to melt. I’m using the twist on connections that it’s possible. Have you found a solution if you had to splice in and lengthen a wiring harness?

Always do the twist man. I even put a bit of flux on the twist, slide on the connector and a piece of extra heat shrink. Get the initial connection down and strong, then make it prettier with the extra heat shrink. Done.
These are great, just gotta learn their language I guess lol.

Not all brands are created equal, I find the name brands are more consistent. Youtuber bigclive has a great quick video using some cheap ones, and he cuts them in half to show the penetration is fine for auto use.

Beginner here, might be a stupid question but where did you wire the demon eye into so that it got power? Thanks!!

Keep in mind most factory pins and connectors are crimp on.

Fanning is good, twisting is not. Twisting limits solder penetration and can add resistance.

These do NOT give proper flow through of solder. The connection is around the cables, not throughout, resulting in a poor connection compared to using a soldering iron
