Fragile stands but functional

I used a wire to fit a relay to allow the auxiliary power connections in my car to work with the ignition and due to some wires it made sense to crimp some connectors as well a bit of soldering. The crimp was fine and there was no problem with solder inclusions when using a good soldering iron as others have said, although as it is aluminum clad I could see why this could be an issue. The coasters are very thin and easy to cut. and break. I'm usually pretty good at avoiding this, but with this wire it was hard to avoid, especially when soldering the middle lead of a wire (wanted more than one branch connector for this connection). On the other hand, I'm sure the thin strands of copper clad aluminum made it fairly flexible, making it easy to thread it through the spots I wanted to run the wire through.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Low repairability
