No crimp heat-shrink terminals with solder just about mandates use of a electric heat shrink gun. They're inexpensive at Harbor Freight.
The above terminals do not use regular 60/40 electronics solder. A third metal card Bismuth is added and it reduces needed to melt temperature by some forty degrees.
I just purchased a box of no crimp heat shrink butts for 26-24 wire. The insulator is transparent clear.
I hope this helps someone and at least, is entertaining.
