 I thought a lot of radiators were soldered?

   The strongest connection is a PROPER crimp.  Stop and think about it
  for a second.

  If only soldering a large cable in a closed lug, what is holding the
  cable in?

  Just the solder which is attached to the inside surface of the lug.

  Solder is SOFT! Over time, vibration etc., will loosen the connection.

  Nothing wrong with soldering a crimped connection but really
  unnecessary.

  Done properly crimping is the way to go.

    I have some fairly heavy and nice looking battery cable ends.  I
  think
    they can be crimped, but I'd like to just solder them.  Any reason to
    not solder onto the cables?
    Thanks, Inline image
