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.

Thank you all for the great replies. The best I can do now is to pull both wires to see if they hold together when soldered. And use Rosin Core. My normal technique for clean wire is to tin both wires and leave a little extra on the wires then touch the wires together then touch with iron. Then shrink wrap. I need to do it this way unless I have something to hold them together. The next time I attempt to solder "dirty, oxidized" wires I may clean them with Electronic Spray or Naval Jelly. Can anyone suggest about using Naval Jelly? Thanks
