Soldering instead of crimping
Hi, Would there be any reason not to solder battery connections versus crimping? The application would be for a solar charging system. Moved to Tech Issues forum from DIY.

I built a 45 ft ocean going sail boat several years ago and I crimped and soldered all the electrical terminals. Now it is 25 years later and all those connections are still sound. So crimping is nice and so is soldering but doing them both together, in my opinion, is best. It is what the boat building code called for.
