good tight fit

I have to say this is not the easiest design I have ever worked with. When preparing to solder, simply "plan the process" before you begin is the best advice I can give. In fact, I was careless on the first one and royally spoiled it very quickly. (I forgot to add the rubber grommet when trying to screw it up when trying to remove the wires I carefully added the first time) Second. I went through it very, very carefully for a minute or two before I started and planned very carefully how I was going to go about it. That (soldering the 12-gauge cable) then went smoothly on the 2nd. I think the spring might be a weak point at 20 amps continuously, but even that seems "enough" for my application. (brief use of air pump - damaged plug on air pump replaced) (20A fuse was included in each plug) Housing (assembled) seems much better than screw tip type. (stronger) I think I'll say it's a little tight with the larger wire, but I've reordered. I liked them so much I bought a couple for parts. I don't usually spoil things like this and have a lot of experience. I was just too hasty with the first one. Just a little slower. As mentioned, it's a little tricky, but "pretty doable". That's all I can think of at the moment.
