<p>?? you never crimp to a tinned (soldered) wire end. The crimp
can deform and will not hold.<br>
for 'LBC's' flux wire end, crimp, then solder then heat shrink as
appropriate to give the joint some mechanical assist (and further
electrical isolation.</p>
<p>all this can be quite subjective. The ysay never rely on solder
as the electrical connection. It's only meant to retain the
mechanical connection of the electrical contact. point.</p>
<p>Yet on my UAVs, (and older RC cars) its quite common to only
solder blob the end of 14/16awg wires to the ckt board pads which
pass 40+ amps without melt-down of massive losses. The battery
leads are 'wire in connector pin cup' soldered and can see 200 amp
sustained currents!</p>
<p>...can be a bit scary (relying on such a contact) when you've got
$3K to $20K worth of craft and cameras relying on that power
connection.</p>
<p>So my own opinion (and experiences) dielectric grease the end of
the wire, insert in terminal and crimp. Don't smash it, .....and
use two strokes across the crimp (two dimples)<br>

discussion, crimping has some sub-options. One, coat the
terminal wire with dialetric first to make it corrosion
resistant. Option two, tin the wire before crimping onto it,
also to make it corrosion resistant. Like others, I prefer to
solder the connector to the wire when I can. <br>

used it at least a zillion times in the last decade. Tool
is still in great shape and 99% of my crimps are too.</p>

separate tool for that. But I’ve done rings, spades, and
all sorts of other crimps</p>
