I have a butane soldering Iron that I love... bought it at Lowes for 20
bucks and the damn thing is wonderful.... big enough to handle Battery
terminal ends and small enough to handle 5 amp circuits... I solder and
shrink wrap all the ends on the Race car.... and this thing was new to me
when I built this wiring harness.... awesome piece..
Oh make sure you get the right solder for electrical work.... I think it is
Rosen core... but check the package... the other stuff (acid core?)
corrodes terminal ends..
